TV news anchors are literally talking heads. Their job is to read whatever’s put on their teleprompters. I can’t fathom why anybody would invite one to be a college commencement speaker.

Great book to read, if you have not already done so, regarding this topic is Neil Postman’s “Amusing Ourselves to Death”.
