Hallie Jackson- The fastest talker in cable news!

[redstateblues]

Honestly-having her on in the morning makes me want to switch to another channel. I guess the producers think she accomplishes more by speed talking-it's a bit annoying.

1. What is your point?

I like Hallie. Never noticed that she talks fast.

Is it her hair? Her fashion style?

[redstateblues]

5. Did I say something about either of those things?

I said I think she talks fast. It's annoying to me. Your intimation is also.

6. It is just very odd that you felt the need to start a

thread about it. Do you have a problem with her actual reporting?

[redstateblues]

8. Odd that I would start a thread about something on MSNBC?

Is there some unspoken rule that forbids me from commenting on the delivery of an MSNBC talking head? There have been tons of threads about Steve Kornacki (who is even more annoying than Hallie.) Is she immune from any criticism? Her reporting is fine-a bit speedy for my taste. I like a lot of the personalities on MSNBC- just not crazy about Hallie.

7. I agree. That is why I switch to Sciutto and Harlow during her time slot.

2. Thing about her is she's very smart. She's probably processed

the info she's given in a nanosecond and is on to the next thought. But she can come across as an eager puppy and it can be annoying.

3. She held Pence's feet to the fire. She's alright by me. KCDC, not so much.

4. I don't know...Joy Reid and Chris H talk quickly too.

Maria Teresa Kumar does also, and frequently restarts a sentence multiple times. To me, it’s annoying and avoidable. I often wish a producer would urge her to slow down—maybe try to make fewer points.

9. Yes She Is A MotorMouth

and I can't take much of her

[DeafAngelboy23]

10. Well...

I can’t hear so I don’t really care about the speech pattern.

11. Have you listened to Chris Matthews?

He never lets up.

[redstateblues]

13. Yes- I have been a long time fan/watcher of Chris

He is not as sharp as he used to be-either am I- tho I don't have an intense cable news show.

12. Hallie Jackson talks like a teenager.

High pitched and fast. Not convinced she is overly smart. Asks routine and boring questions. She is ok as a White House stenographer. Not so much as a news person with her own show. I turn MSNBC on when Ali and Stephanie are on.
