"Do you really want someone who sounds like a Gomer Pile or a hardcore redneck giving you the daily national, international news & business reports?

I would rather focus on the news on not very distracting accents of network anchormen.

It shouldn't matter, but shallow superficial people can't get past superficial things like the accent. They can't focus on anything beyond trivial things like that. Just aren't able to.

Thoughtful people, on the other hand, automatically focus on the issues and content of what is being discussed.

Excellent response and right on the money -- you beat me to it.
