I don't know if there is a term for putting down one's voice. Like race and face one is born with it.

Thought I think that there are voice trainers.

It used to be that people on radio and television were expected to have good voices that that carry, with good diction, but her voice really grates.

For how long did she push the Fox climate denier story?
Or the birther story?
Plus the countless other lies!!

Admittedly, I fell for MSNBCs hype and curiosity got the better of me. I lasted maybe 1 1/2 shows before running off to something better... like the vacuum or a toilet brush.

And if Gretchen Carlson (or whatever her name is) gets a slot, I won't watch her either. There are a lot of pundits I also won't watch, like that horrid Hugh Hewitt. The second they come on, I switch the channel and won't switch back. That program is then dead to me during that time segment.

I tried a couple times to watch and my mind just drifted away from paying attention to her, cause she's so NOT dynamic or interesting at all. Boring monotone, uninteresting and dull. With a RW stank...

deserves to crater. She is a terrible journalist and an even worse on camera 'talent' Her questions are banal and biased. I gave her about 15 minutes of my time, but that was all. She needs to get on that bus and move on back over to Faux and take Andrea Mitchell with her.

she wasn't even popular on Fox. She just got okay ratings because their viewers were already tuned in. No way were they ever going to follow her to MSNBC

I think he's a closet liberal caged in by the $$$ of FOX news. When he occasionally goes after right wing stupidity, it truly is a beautiful thing.

And she's always been that. She's never really done anything. No wonder she worked at Faux and supported the R's. She's another fine example of failing up.
