Two things.
One. Saying that only some tv newspersons lack training and technical knowledge is a stretch. I would say that MOST of them are.
Two. Calling our local newspersons Broadcast JOURNALISTS is a misnomer. They're more talking heads and empty headed. Well, MOST of them are.
Three....
Wait. I mean Three, three things....

Four...
Ummmm... never mind.
