In reply to the discussion: Nancy Pelosi slammed Katy Tur just now. [View all]Roy Rolling
(6,953 posts)68. All good points
There was something about her style that was fingernails on chalkboard as the old analogy said before whiteboards.
You all pointed my uncomforther brand is that she is giggly aloof from the serious subject shes reporting on. The fake smile and clueless persona is straight out of the movies and totally inappropriate for television journalists.
Her whole act is demonstrating how insignificant the subject matter is. I cant watch someone as unserious as that and immediately tune her out. That cant be good for sponsors who expect me to tolerate her, and hang around long enough just to sample their wares.

Katy's got that "deer in headlights" look along with a forced "oh my god I don't want to be here" smile.

I refuse to watch Katy Tur and Andrea Mitchell. When they come on, I click off the TV. I read about it later

I used to like her and lately she seems quite RW. Not always, but enough to notice a change
