Yeah maybe he was thrown in the anchor chair after a 10 minute change over, but was he in the newsroom before getting on camera? OK maybe thats true.I think Martin Daubney is just simply not cut out for live broadcasting. I remember one edition of GB News Breakfast he presented where he just left the programme midway through some headlines leaving Ellie Costello to present the rest of the programme alone. I think the nerves get to him and it just isn’t the right path for him.
But i think thats where this "VOICE OF GOD" style of "newsreader-presenting" fails, because when there is a fast moving breaking style sometimes you have to just stop drop the robotic facade. Inform that viewers that we have fast moving developments and the story is still fluid at this hour, I'm just being told the latest that we are getting into our newsroom. Instead of staring into the camera like a deer caught in headlights. Look down and write down what you are being told in our IFB. They do this on CNN, and MSNBC and hundreds of local tv stations across Canada/US. JUST PAUSE. (Gallery should have given him the quick bullet points on what just happened and whats next and I dont see anything wrong with asking the gallery a question) Take a breath and then resume. Start at the top and run it all down again."Here is where are at this hour and what we know in this fast developing story. We are being told blah blah..."
But unfortunately This is just exposes chinks in GBNEWS ability to gather and quickly disseminate breaking news smoothly.
