Taki on Newsreaders

He writes:

England is now as bad as America, and that’s no laughing matter. Misandry, thy real name is no sense of humor. Anyway, who today knows what’s fish and what is fowl? Sexual identity is no longer clear. Which makes me wonder about The Spectator and even Takimag. The Spectator is full of young ladies, but none of them have fallen in love —certainly not with me—and I’ve never seen any of them cry. Maybe they’re all men, after all. My, my, things are getting very complicated. In America, things are straight to the point. They take everything seriously, even their newsreaders. They call them anchors and they expect them to act like true gentlemen. No fibs. One of them, Brian Williams of NBC, lost his job worth $10 million per annum for claiming he came under fire in Iraq when he hadn’t. “He has lost the trust of his viewers,” said a pompous NBC executive. Personally, I have never trusted newsreaders because they read what their bosses choose for them to read.
