Cuban and Key West cigar makers were some of the most educated people in the world during their generations in the 1800s and 1900s. They had news read aloud from newspapers, classic book titles and anything requested, while the 80 or so rollers were doing their work. Newsreaders go back a long way.
The guy in the box, directing EVERYONE is boss. I remember seeing a doco about live to air direction of the Oscars? It was full on hectic, like air traffic control, even without any problems.
Not sure who it was now, but a male newsreader was being interviewed on a chat show and he said he practiced for weeks to get the right pronunciation of Ndabaningi Sithole, which one must admit is a bit of tongue twister, anyhow he at last got it right and then Ndabaningi Sithole, died, so the only time he got to use the practice was to announce his passing.
While it's not quite news, I can tell you that it can sometimes be difficult being a sports announcer. I've called play-by-play for ice hockey games in the middle of Canada for about a decade, and it's definitely more difficult then it seems, considering how fast of a sport it is. Also, the games are streamed live, so there's pretty much little to no room for error. In other words, if I mess up, anyone who's watching will hear it.
couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of drama queens. I've worked in a few newsrooms, & they seem to me to have been the seat, the birthplace, of the sort of judgmental sneering that characterises today's rolling news & phone-in radio shows; these guys from the old days of appointment-to-view tv news (as distinct from a whole channel dedicated to salacious gossip, tabloid fodder) were real personalities, & tv news actually meant something then.
Fortunately, in the US, so little news can be taken seriously anyway. I remember when CBS Sunday Morning aired a hard-hitting investigative piece about whether there was a cover-up in the art world over the fact that ancient Greek and Roman statues were originally painted a darker skin tone than the cold white color of marble that we now see. The gist of the piece was that ancient white statues of ancient Caucasian men were somehow racist because the ancient paint had worn off and Americans hadn't been told that they were once browner. The aging female reporter asked a Portuguese art expert whether there was a cover-up. He responded, his voice rising in a defensive whine, "No!" The reporter responded with something like, "No cover-up? Reeeeeealy? No cover-up?" It was hilarious that the reporter could be so ignorant of what art students had known for years and that CBS would go to such lengths to manufacture an example of white racism.
11:17 Verity Lines, Judi's younger sister, I think. Both were pretty gorgeous. They worked at Anglia TV in the 70s, as I recall, and would come into my nearby place of work.
3am has been known to be, at times, in the morning. This phenomenon may very well have been extremely uncommon in most lives, from the immense numbers of redundant brains using the phrase with only the number changed.
You'd think the newsreaders were some kind of warriors, or heroes, instead of just entertainment. Half of them don't even understand the consequences of what is happening and the context their owners and editors are giving to what's written and placed before them. Since journalism courses died, and colleges started offering "communications courses," news has become advertising and entertainment, not enlightenment.
jesus,that dermot murnaghan just wanted to be the first to announce princess diana died...with no emotion...with a career...people like dermot murnaghan have careers...the rest of us have jobs...
I have always understood that the announcers are not allowed to show emotion and neither should they all though some of those announcers seemed very jumpy.
The thing I hated about these compilation shows. Was not only the narrator over the top, bust the constant interruptions of the talking heads. They add nothing. Just show us the clips. Wake up ITV!
"What does it take to be a newsreader ?" Obedience to the Narrative and people who own the Channel. 80% of journalists come from privileged backgrounds, so they always feel entitled to lecture to the Poor and Lower Classes.
What’s your agenda bud? Who’s convinced/hired you to post this? There’s a dozen other comments just like yours on this old news bloopers video - but thousands of similar media attacks across TH-cam. So… Russian? Indian? Chinese?
So, any criticism of the Media has to be done by Vladmir Putin ? Obviously the little people, the stupid people have no right to point out that the people in the Media come from Private schools, privilege and a different Class. They tell us to be "Equal" but don't want to be Equal themselves.It's not just me confidence in the Media is now 24%. i.e. 76% don't believe the Media's lies.@@TitaniumTurbine
I took on the challenge of finding his name, but it wasn’t easy - his name is Lamar Stone. He was with KXLF out of Butte, Montana back in the early 90s and only one other photo of him exists when searching online - which is just a black and white crew/anchor group shot. Nothing else, I can’t find him on social media, there’s no obituary, nothing on the people finder sites. He must be an extremely private person.
I think you guys may have hit on something editing this video...... Add laugh tracks to all news from hear on out, I mean it's all so pathetic anymore that it's hilarious.
Another mindless foreign drone here with the pathetic agenda of “…discredit the news in the west so that no one will pay attention to it anymore, then, we’ll win!”. If you’re not a foreign hired hand, you’re being manipulated.
@@RWL2012 I made my comment 4 months ago, I have a hard time remembering yesterday at my age. But, in most cases you would be right but there must have been something that made me post that comment. Maybe it was nothing, but I wouldn't have made that comment if something didn't seem off. To me anyway...
*Never thought I'd hear Kenneth Kendall R.I.P. wish us **_goodnight_** ever again.*
Much appreciated all the newsreaders who turn chaos into flawless fluff of which most of us are blissfully unaware.
That was very good to watch. I was a bit surprised not to see Reginald Bosanquet there.
I hope you have more of this show, was fantastic!
Many thanks for this!
Yet, just across the bay at Crantock the visibility of the eclipse was just perfect. Thank you mother nature, it was soul reaching. ❤
Thanks I needed this! 😂
Thanks so much for uploading!
Beware, headphone users. Oscillating left-right-left-right volume focus peaks.
the uploader really should've mono-summed it.

My fav is when newsreader Ethan Forhetz reported on a horrible 'sketch' of suspected thief.. I applaud him for his professionalism on that clip🤣🤣🤣🤣
11:30 do a piece about a football match in front of a load of rowdy fans, they said
It'll work, they said.
I miss shows like this

Jan Leeming - STILL got it !
Once on RTE NEWS, IRELAND, newsreader Charles Mitchell pronounced MISLED as being MISSELD....very funny at the time!
What about Trevor MacDonald's famous gaffe transposing the first two syllables of "Kent countryside"?
I remember back in the 70s our teacher chuckling about how the newsreader had rendered Lebanese troops crossing the border into "lesbian troops..."
Makes me laugh on the eclipse! I was at work in the Midlands and had a blue sky and a perfect view!
Fascinating to watch.
Only on television, can they all congratulate themselves over such a failure. 😂
Hilarious but also sad at times 😢 and 🤣. Loved it! 🎉 New respect for newsreaders 👍👍
A good technical comedy LoL
They didn't have to worry about Russel, he's been pulling shit our his arse for decades.
Really enjoyed this. Thank you 😊
This documentary is interesting but it did not need the awful laugh track which very often drowned out the action on the screen.
Not sure who it was now, but a male newsreader was being interviewed on a chat show and he said he practiced for weeks to get the right pronunciation of Ndabaningi Sithole, which one must admit is a bit of tongue twister, anyhow he at last got it right and then Ndabaningi Sithole, died, so the only time he got to use the practice was to announce his passing.
Think it was Andrew Gardner and the man in question was undoubtedly dead. He was shot (assassinated)

48:00 he missed a golden opportunity for a laugh there. Instead of "I politely declined", he should've said "......so I'm seeing her next Tuesday."
Wonderful & well recovered in some places ... lol xxx

Get up and dance, lads, if you`ve nothing to say. I couldn`t possibly comment as to the ladies. Let them do what seems best to them.
Trevor McDonald ( in his youth )
looking funnily like a Lenny Henry impersonator
Is the tinned laughter, necessary ?
Bloody lovies
John Snow knew nothing.
Looks like a very stressful job.
2:36. Who’s the guy walking out
Good liars.
What about Stuart Norval's "shitting company" instead of shipping company? 😄

What is the name of that song periodically playing in the background? Time 10:00
Cantaloupe Island - Herbie Hancock
When did this originally air?? Seems late 90s based on the tech
you're right, 1999 to be exact.
"u have to be capable of ignoring all distractions" - no u dont. these bullshit thinking needs to go.
Kirsty Young really is very pretty isn't she?

The audio is horrible.
I watched another vid to make sure my headphones aren't broken.

2:41 That's from Kiwi Tele, I recognize the interviewer as Lindsay Perigo. Another kiwi Marcus Lush at 3:42. And the late great Paul Holmes at 36:38.
Holmes... my father's brother dedicated a painting to him. "The great white drip"
24:42 Marcus Lush

Oh yes it should

Robby Ratana could've done a better job
That’s actually Marcus Lush
Has jJan Leeming got a skirt on ?
Did you threaten to overrule him?
amusing documentary
Where's Alaister Stewart?
Where’s huw Edwards 😂

Got sacked for a racist tweet apparently

When news readers were news readers and not presenters with an opinion and an agenda.
Lol so naive.
@@jesusisapisces so stupid.
😅😅😅

This is an antique show from the last century.
correct, 1999.
Why were they entertaining the prescence of that big fake russell grant? This was supposed to be serious astronomy.
No such thing.
I think someone got confused between astronomy and astrology!🌠💫 🤔
THIS IS BETTER THAN ANY NEWS REPORT...😂
A tinder account.
🤣🤣
Great clips ruined by the added canned laughter.
Enough with the eclipse already!!!!
You´d almost think it was the only challange ever faced by the BBC.
Pffffffff....
It was channel five😂
It's all based on the principle....
*Measure it with a ruler - mark it with chalk - cut it with an axe.*
Ah! The principal takes over a combined mathematics/woodsplitting class.
PRINCIPLE, as you missed your 3rd grade spelling class, ENTIRELY.
The editing is so annoyingly bad on this
Newsreaders, anchors...they're all talking heads (with apologies to David Byrne.)
Same as it ever was
_sigh_
No apologies to Tina Weymouth, Chris Frantz, Jerry Harrison. Typical.
👎😖 Sound panning left to right and vice versa all the time, very annoying❗

Too old and with a laugh track👎
Angela was a total snob .
And as hot as hell.
