I would fire David Muir FIRST.

“While his salary hasn’t been publicly declared by ABC, he is reported to be receiving a salary of between $5-$7million per year.”

There has to be some person that can read the teleprompter and pay $250K that will do just as good of a job.

News broadcasters (particularly the higher paid ones at the network level) are vetted by testing them with focus groups.

If they can convince the majority of focus group viewers that 1 + 1 = 3 on a consistent basis they are hired.

It is the skill of the sociopath.

"some person"

That will be the first job AI takes away. Almost five years ago, China introduced an AI news reader. Think how much better it has gotten today.

So many YouTube videos are now narrated by robots which drives me nuts.

Licensing an AI would be even cheaper.
