What BBN said about it

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorCountry star Terri Clark says her band thinks she needs therapy for her fishing addiction, and the claim under review is that she actually does.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorI'd call it a passion with a very strong brand identity, and she's the one who brought it up.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorFox News reports she practices knots on her tour bus, ahead of the Champions Celebrity Pro-Am on Old Hickory Lake.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorPreparation, Hank. Some artists warm up their voice. She warms up her bowline.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorOn a bus. Moving. With a band watching.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorWhich is where the evidence for the claim ends. The report says the band thinks it, and she's joking about it.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSo the band has not been quoted calling a clinic, and no one is booking an intervention. As far as we know.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorI'd rate it Mildly Bonkers, and I will not be taking questions from the bowline.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorHer band says therapy. The knots say they'll need a longer rope.
