Oh wait, I lied I have couple more things to add. Just because I don't like a certain well known journalist (actually several journalists for that matter) does not make me, nor anyone jealous of that journalist. The FACT that I do not relate to the way they report the news, and/or do not enjoy the way they present the news does not make me jealous. What DOES it make me? Well, it makes me a viewer with an opinion, a viewer that isn't afraid to say when I LIKE something they do as well one who says so when I DON'T like something they do. And who am I to critisize? Well I'm a viewer just like everyone, and believe it or not the whole "supply and demand" thing works in this case as well. Also, just because one journlist is an *underdog* does not make them any less qualified to do their job and do it well. Journalism has almost NOTHING to do with how long you've been around, but MORE SO about HOW WELL you can relate the news/stories to the people. And for the record, who said "human intrest" stories aren't news? I quite enjoy them after a full hour of nothing but "This person died today. This person was murdered today. This scandal went on. This violence errupted. This protest went down. etc etc."
