Original Note:
The claim first appeared on a St. Louis subreddit back in 2018 Meteorologist Jaime Travers who works for FOX 2 in St. Louis. The box on her ankle is called an Interruptible foldback or IFB. IFBs are communications devices used for broadcasting and video production. https://misbar.com/en/factcheck/2021/09/11/st-louis-meteorologist-wasnt-wearing-an-ankle-monitor-on-tv
