All of a sudden some of the serious news of the world is being presented by silly female reporters with ringlets. Have you noticed?
In addition to this 1930’s child’s hair style reminiscent of Shirley Temple, reporters are also GIGGLING through interviews. I often wonder if the ringlets are what encourage the high pitched giggling. They do seem to go together.
But, Rejoice! The Morning News Has a New Look and a New Feel!
It’s a party! Come one, come all. It’s a street gang, a celebration, sometimes even dancing. News station cue cards will tell you when to jump up and down and scream. You are encouraged to make faces, wave, hold up signs, but mostly to giggle!
Look at the cheering crowds. What a great way to swallow serious news!
Listen to the raucous laughter of the news staff. The weatherman’s is the loudest. He’s your friend. He’s funny and oh-so- lovable. What a way to swallow the weather! Stay tuned for more happy news or even not-so-happy news delivered with joy.
It seems the major networks have swallowed a spoonful of sugar to make the medicine go down!
What is happening to the news anyway?
Don’t they know I am not a morning person?
I want to get my news “straight” and I’m not happy with all this fabulous fun and frolic.
I know ringlets have been around since Roman times but I still associate them with children. Ringlets and Reporters just don’t seem right. It’s a jarringly un-serious look.
What do you think about the delivery of your morning news?

I don’t watch much news, but I’ll be on the lookout for ringlets now. Interesting post!

Thanks for stopping by Lori! I noticed that Demi Moore has the “loose ringlets” so popular now. I think you will be surprised at how often you will see them. 🙂

We don’t normally turn on our tv in the morning, but I have noticed that some of the female anchors are dressed like they’re heading to a party. And our local TV stations have decided that having the anchors STAND during part of the news cast is a good idea. Umm…. those ladies would look MUCH better sitting behind a desk…..

Personally, I don’t listen to the news because it’s just too darn depressing. My favourite time of the day is first thing in the morning when I get up and the house is totally quiet and I can sit and catch up on my emails in peace, and putting on the news would totally ruin that. What I have noticed though when my husband has the news on is that many of the reporters are not as polished as they used to be – they stumble over their words and can’t pronounce certain words. That bugs me LOL!

Hi Dianna! It may be a very good idea for me to skip the tv news in the A.M. Standing or sitting, something’s missing. 🙂

No wonder you are so happy Cindy… no news is definitely good news! I think I will follow your plan of action and use the quiet time for emails. 🙂

I’d noticed the giggling and squealing, but not the ringlets. Thankfully my local news is usually more conservative when I watch it. I don’t know if you get Mark Holmberg in your area, but he’s always good for telling unvarnished truth. A little too good – I bet the station gets a fair amount of complaints at times.
