Should Radio Personalities Be Able To Add Their Own Personal Thoughts? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

On the radio, two separate radio/news reporters added their onw thoughts /tomnes to stuff.

Ciara and Chris Brown had a radio hit together this year. After the song was finished, the radio personality, said, "That was the hit single from Chris Brown and Ciara. The personality added, "That Crazy ass bitch who beats on women." Who do you think he was talking about? Ciara?

I didn't think that was professional of the personality to add that.....

On another radio station, a radio personality was reporting the news of a killed child. He said, "The child was left in the hot car, and burned to death. he added, "While Mommy was inside of a gym, doing Yoga(he said this part with obvious disgust in his voice). I don't know if this was professional either, to speak with disgust as you are relating the news......

I think news anchors should keep their commentary out of the news. If they're "personalities" putting on a radio show, and they also report the news, then I think they can give their opinions.

That's what they do. They're radio personalities. If they didn't give their own spin, they'd be radio IMPERSONALities.

Well it's a disgusting story. It just shows that the anchor is a human being with a heart. It would bother me if the guy didn't seem upset about that story.
