Im not kidding when I say that even though I agree with alot that he says I would love to punch Glen Beck right in the face, he cries, he pouts, and he thinks his pathetic witicisims are funny. I would pay good money to watch Katy C. pound every tooth out of his head. Who do you consider least watchable?

Rachel Maddow makes me wince sometimes, but, she strikes me as a truly intelligent woman and she does often make good points, Olbermann OTOH I see no value whatsoever in, and he's worse than Beck's paranoia any day, IMHO

All those guys and gal are just political talking heads with agendas. Beck is a riot; very funny to me. But for a real anchors, I would rate Wolf Blitzer as the worst. He constantly takes these pauses in mid-sentance, sometimes even mid syllable, and is just a terrible droner-on.

I wish Chris Mathews would die on air. I can't stand looking at him and it gets worse when he speaks.
Sean Hannity is annoying as hell.
Shepard Smith looks likes he's sitting on a massive fart.
Nancy Grace makes me want to shoot the TV.
I want to see Katie Couric devoured by wolves though.
Hated her since the first day I saw her.
I always like Bill O'reilly for about 10 minutes then I'm sick of him no matter what he's talking about.

We've seen the last of the truly great anchors....Brinkley, Chancellor, Reynolds. Peter Jennings was a class act.

What news station is interested in class these days?

Jennings a class act? I don't agree. I saw this show some years ago and it made me loose respect for Jennings and Mike Wallace. A panel ethical question was if you had info that an american patrol was about to be ambushed, would they warn the americans or just report it after the attack; ie, save american lives or let it happen and make a report about it? Peter starts out by saying the right thing, then Mike chastizes him and so Peter backtracks. The Colonal at the very end summerizes his feelings of the two men perfectly.

Pardon my vent, but I really can't stand these two "reporters". But yes, Brinkley, Chancellor, and Reynolds: we will never see quality reporters like them again.

What ever happened to Kurt Loder, is he still with MTV?

I don't think he is with MTV anymore. But I don't want MTV anymore so I really don't know. There wasn't anything in Wikipedia about him still being with MTV.
I just have to say Maddow gets my vote. Olbermann gets a very close second but at least I can laugh at Olbermann.

julie and i watch maddow with amazement. she must share writers with olberman because they sound exactly alike. infliction, pauses, mutterings. it get skind of creepy.
and olberman's obsession with limbaugh and o'reilly can be downright comical.
