Ron Burgundy Scotch to launch
Fans of the Anchorman franchise can finally settle down with a leather bound book and glass of Ron Burgundy’s favourite tipple as a Scotch is being released alongside the new film.
To coincide with the release of Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues, “Great Odin’s Raven” – a reference to one of Ron Burgundy’s catchphrases – is apparently due for release this month.
Little information about the Scotch is known save that it’s a blend and being released through Drink Supermarket and was bottled by Riviera Imports.
The exploits of Ron Burgundy and his Channel 4 news team (above) gained cult status when the first film, Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Brgundy, was released in 2004.
Filled with quotable dialogue and slightly surreal moments such as a cameo-filled street fight between rival news teams straight out of West Side Story – albeit one that get’s out of hand “fast” – the sequel has been one of the year’s most hotly anticipated comedies. It is released in the UK on 18 December.
Through it all Burgundy makes it known that his favourite drink is “Scotch. Scotchy, Scotch, Scotch”, which he is often seen holding in a tumbler and drinking before newscasts – although he is seen drinking a beer at one point and also milk, which he quickly calls, “a bad choice”.
Rumours that the packaging will be a “glass case of emotion” are not yet confirmed.
Commas do not go before quotations.
yes they do
Not before partial quotations like “a bad choice”, true, but commas do go before full quoted dialogue. Example:
Al asked pointedly, “Why do people consistently fail to properly qualify their statements on the Internet?”
To answer your question, I’m not really sure why people don’t qualify their statements. However, your comma belongs inside of the quotation marks.

Are you being serious? The article you linked was about commas that are either part of the quote itself, or using the comma at the end of the quote, usually followed by a conjunction. To assert that you’d lead into a quote with a comma *inside the quotation marks* is asinine. I hope you’re a math major.
Punctuation always goes to the left of quotations. Comma or not
COMMA BEFORE QUOTATIONS? NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN
Somebody needs to chill the fuck out and have some, “Scotchy Scotch Scotch.”
Should of been Ron Burbandy.
No one cares.
Actually, there shouldn’t be a comma there at all. End of discussion.
Really???? Who gives a shit about the punctuation?
Commas, commas, commas. “Commas are my favorite.”
U guys are arguing over proper punctuation in a Ron Burgundy article? Idiots
Hey, maybe somebody can help me: I really need to find the Ron Burgundy Whiskey, does anybody know where I can buy it?? Thank you very much!!!
