So, do all TV newsreaders take head bobbing 101...
And then head tilting 102...

And then concerned wrinkle of the chin 202...

And then Raised Eyebrow 301...

I can't watch these people anymore....

3. It's Mood Swings 101 that get to me.
They can be reading a story about mass murder, all solemn-voiced, earnest and full of compassion, then instantly switch to a story about a dog that ate laundry detergent and now farts bubbles, and they're suddenly laughing and joking with their co-anchors like they're at a frat party. To me, they look like a bunch of psychotics.

8. Oh yeah, that's why I had to stop watching the morning newstainment
shows like GMA, Today Show, etc. Now the evening news broadcasts are getting almost as bad.

5. I've pretty much stopped watching TV news
I watch a few minutes of BBC World on Monday morning when there isn't a "Daily Show" stored on my DVR, but beyond that I don't waste my time with it.

Maybe if Melissa Theuriau were reading the news, I might tune in, but it wouldn't be for the news content...
