Michelle Gallardo has theee most annoying,obnoxious voice that we turn the channel when she is on. I just dont get it. I am glad they can ignore appearance (very homely,bless her heart ) but that voice is fingernails on the chalk board.
And un like other posters, I think Larry Potash and team are a hoot and a half.

I have to find a new morning news show before work but I love Robin Baumgarten. I watch WGN in the morning but I have to switch because Ana Belaval gets my goat almost daily. I agree with the over pronunciation and what she said this morning floored me. "Thats what guys want to see" she said when referring to the complaint emails she knows she'll get from viewers about only having skinny models on her exercise clothing segment. I could give a rats about what guys wanna see, what about the viewers that tune in religiously every morning. I guess fat women don't need exercise clothes. Is she married to Howard Stern? She's unfunny and she reminds me of the snooty aggressive girls that tried to beat me up in middle school. She would be great in Miami or Hollywood not the portly Midwest.

I like Ravi Bachiwal and Karen Jordan. Can't stand how Michelle Gallardo does her entire report in English and then has to keep it real when she pronounces her last name. Does Ravi sound like Apu from The Simpsons when he says he name?

Nobody mentioned radio. I listen to NPR every morning and I've never heard so many flubs by a professional speaker as Lisa Labuz. Sometimes I think she has dyslexia.

-washed up has-beens from major and mod tier markets, obviously resentful that they have to cover Loverboy coming to the county fair as the "lead story".
I can do you one better -- I used to periodically watch news broadcasts from Rhinelander and Wausau. I've seen better-produced news shows from high school TV studios.

How bout the CBS morning news anchor Erin Kennedy? She NEVER looks down at the papers in front of her but shifts them religiously as tho she were reading them. Knock it off already. So staged.

I like Andy Avalos the weatherman from NBC, and I love Jon Kelly from Fox32, he is funny and i met him in the fast food restaurnt down in the building. The one i dont like is the Darlene Hill from Fox32 because she thinks she is so funny but she is always making aggressive arm motions, and pointing and being obnoxious, she is way over the top and thinks she is hot stuff. not very humble, trying to get everyone's attention where its obnoxious.

Mark Suppelsa on Fox32 is really a nice guy.. he'd be a fun dad. he was talking about his kid today.

I've got to admit that I have a huge crush on Mai Martinez on CBS-2 I notice that she kind of stumbles over her lines pretty frequently though, lol.
