Why does Andrea Mitchel torture herself when she talks?

[Wellstone ruled]

1. It's all about Optics,

but in her case,she believes what she says. Total shill for the GE/Comcast/Bain,Jack Welch group. Remember on thing,she thought she was the greatest reporter(only in her mind)on this planet. Still working on her Hubbies Legacy.

3. Yeah her commercial inflating her worth

[jenmito]

6. Yup. At the end of the ad, she says something like, "Judge us on the way we do our job..." I always

think of how I AM judging her on how she does her job and she's no good at it.

8. Her ad is the worst one on there

Everyone else sounds like they are having a conversation, or talking off the top of their head. She's clearly spouting scripted lines that makes her come off as pompous.

2. If you're talking about her inability to spit out what she's trying to say, her halting speech, her

"uh, you know"s, her continuing to ask a question when the guest already starts answering, I've wondered the same thing. She's no good as a TV anchor. She should stick to reporting.

[LiberalFighter]

4. yep

[jenmito]

5. I'm glad I'm not the only one to notice all that. It's gotten to where I don't watch her show until

the very end after I finish watch The Daily Show and The Colbert Report from the night before.

7. She's painful to watch. nt

[jenmito]

9. TOO painful if you ask me. n/t

[Cosmocat]

14. Her politics aside

she simply does not have the verbal skill/talent to do what they have her doing.

But, as much as they slap their selves on the back about how true they are journalism, nepotism and knowing someone goes a LONG way in that field as it does anywhere else.

Cue Luke Russert moving up the ladder ...

11. It could be the chemo. She has breast cancer.

[jenmito]

12. I doubt it. She was like that before that, too. n/t

[xxxsdesdexxx]

10. I agree as well, I've always felt bad when she stumbles on her own words

[xxxsdesdexxx]

13. Anyone else notice that Nancy Pelosi does the same thing?

[Comrade_McKenzie]

15. I can't stand to watch anchors that can't talk properly...

Which is unfortunate, because all of the ones that I like the most aren't cut out to be anchors.
