Ernie Anastos.His bloopers on youtube are awesome.
Sue Simmons. She's a pistol.
Betty Nguyen Funny, cute, smart.
T.J. Holmes, who reported the death of Norman Mailer by reading off the teleprompter - "Norman Mailer, the author on the Naked AND the Dead" . . . . A great moment in journalism.

Jon Stewart. Since we don't have real newscasters anymore, might as well pick the best entertainer.

Marc Brown. I always get a chuckle from this one.

I hate to seem confrontational ...but I don't recall having ever seen anyone on any news station that could be considered "fair and open-minded". Following this post will be a few people who will want to give examples of fairness in journalism. Don't bother on my account. You won't sway my opinion of the sensationalism whores that are our media.

This deserves a massive +1.


That being said, I like Keith Olbermann.

Tom Tucker, Diane Simmons, and Trisha Takinawa are also up there as well!

Tough call on a clear winner for me. I'm hoping a wrestling match will decide it.

KeithO [mentioned twice] is a newscaster? I guess Hannity is a newscaster too? Please.

The prime-time cable "news" entertainment programs are not news.

 

[NoTalentHack]

Brit Hume. Most consistently intelligent analysis of the events of the day anywhere.

Bam! That's the one.

Hey now, I mentioned Tom Tucker and Diane Simmons in mine as well. Doesn't that perhaps tell you something about the intent of my post???
