Gig I tend to agree with you on this but he said, "I receive a 7
Gig figure salary for reading the news that is handed to me by
Gig the editors." That makes him an announcer not a
Gig journalist. So in my opinion he is no different than an actor
Gig on some TV show or movie that reads lines.

Which is why I prefer to watch to Spanish language TV stations for
news. First, they cover a lot of important stuff that never appears on
mainstream TV. Second, they make no pretense about their anchors
having any talent or status so generally hire good-looking tarts that
can speak well. Makes for more pleasant viewing.

Working in California's capital, I laugh at the lengths the TV
stations go to have their blow-dried anchors do a "report" in front of
the Capitol Building...just so the viewers can be deceived into
thinking said anchor did some investigation, I suppose. Jeez they
should film some standard important-building-during-different-seasons
backgrounds and photoshop their anchors in front of it. Would save a
lot of money.
