Forget a quibble about the spelling, I am in no mood for it - nor, indeed that this may be in the wrong topic rack.
We have endless talking heads on TV, either presenting news, information, introductions or opinion Styles can be annoying, cocky, know all, biased and on and on; what prompted this thread was my increasing amusement of women newsreaders whose eyes get wider and wider as they introduced their list of today's shocks - men tend to go for furrowed brows of deep concern. News readers of old used to do just what it said on the door, News Reader. All this engagement with the content grates on me but probably on no one else.
The old music hall presenters of acts of course went over the top too - am I right that in Music Halls he was called Mr Interlockitor? Or some such - where did I get that in my head, I have no idea?
I only know one TV Presenter personally - well known too, a few years back - an engaging person she still talks a bundle..... they now live abroad where her dishy husband takes a daily extended breakfast in the local plaza with yesterday's Times. She did not do the wide eyed bit but has a big library of voice inflections to cover all suggested emotions.
Clearly I have stopped listening to what is actually being reported in this engrossing business of getting annoyed by how it is being done.
I assume we have had presenters throughout history...... even town criers ..... and in our village we called the local gossip our Mouth of the Month. She was pretty reliable - and fast too on her sit up and beg bike covering dells and lanes and creeks where WIFI still doesn't reach.

Extra! Extra! Audi omnia!
