Anchors have Personality too!

I was truly in shock to see how much character there was in the t.v. personnel sharing the news! At first, the topic of watching people tell the news for an hour seemed lackluster. But then it became, an insanely joyful presentation that felt like a show instead of just bland news; especially once I tuned in to see Larry King and Nancy Grace. The two of them are distinctly different, but are loved by viewers for unlike reasons.

Larry King, doing the usual "letting the guest speak."
Larry King is this relaxed and lovable old man who just asks the most simplest of questions to his guests, some very big in the world, such as Michelle Obama. The questions are so simple they don't raise an inch of controversy and can basically be answered by the guest's opinion rather than be badgered on it. This is why most of his guests who are important to society are open to come for his interviews, it's like free advertising..."all people know is the good stuff and this guy lets me." Even the comments on the "Youtube" videos were positive, whether it had to do with Larry King or the guests. Upon watching the show you really get a sense who these people really are, well sort of.

When you she her she most likely will look like this..YELLING...at..YOU!
 After watching Nancy Grace, a former prosecutor, viewers will get a little antsy with the news. She's got this outspoken style towards sharing the news which poses as a gift to the interviewing world! Her topics normally are about public issues such as covering a crime.Most of the time she is doing the talking during the interviews, and when she doesn't like what you've got to she's not afraid to put someone on the spot!

She is definitely not liked by everybody, sometimes those that are interviewed even get offended. This is most likely the case because of her voiced opinion; she's even got some "haterz" from youtube users. Comments such as "it would be a miracle is N.G. let someone finish a complete sentence" and "what kind of moron watches this troll?", just to name a few. People MUST like it otherwise CNN wouldn't air it. Even the people who dislike her are racking up her "youtube views"  and t.v. viewership, that's what makes it even more hilarious! I find this all to be a great and fun answer to illustrating the news, even if it means hearing another person's outlook.Below is an example of her attacks on people, which isn't meant to be just an attack its her way of getting things to come out, you know?

  1. Yeah, i can't really stand Nancy Grace, the way she hosts the show and treats the guest just is annoying and too much.
