Especially those Americans who travel to places like North Korea and Iran...



There has to be some sort of special thought process going on there.
 
Why the hell does the "weather person" have to stand outside to tell us it's snowing?


We know wtf snow is, white, cold and picturesque when you're indoors...
 
So you're that type of poster who adheres to the "posting them as soon as they pop into my mind and think about them later"… ;)

I get annoyed by outside broadcasts that are unnecessary.

In the UK, if there is a political item on the news, their "expert" has to stand outside No.10 Downing Street or alongside the Houses of Parliament to say their piece which could be said better in a warm and dry (and cheaper) studio.

Our local news frequently has stories about the migrants in Calais - so they send some poor wight to stand on the White Cliffs of Dover in the dark to tell us what is happening in Calais. Why not tell us from the studio? The most stupid examples are about Operation Stack - the parking of trucks on the M20 motorway. The TV reporter stands on a bridge above the M20 in the cold dark, when it is frequently raining, so that the background is the traffic on the motorway - even when Operation Stack isn't happening.

All of those could be done in a studio with better sound quality. If they wanted, they could have a back-projection of an appropriate scene.

The worst are programmes about sea life. OK. The cameras have to go underwater, but the commentary? Speaking through breathing apparatus distorts the voice so much that it becomes unintelligible - "Look! There's a fish!" Yes, you stupid presenter. We can SEE that it's a fish. When you try to explain the significance of that fish, we can't understand anything you are saying. An on-shore voice-over would be more useful.

We get to see the weather gal being blown down the street during a hurricane...


Here's another one; the reporter is reporting on Iraq, from a rooftop in Tel Aviv.

If the weather gal is wearing a full skirt, that might be interesting.

But reporting about Iraq from Tel Aviv? Why not from the studio?

Our Middle East expert just happens to be in Israel today?

We have had reports from Moscow about what is happening in Beijing? Why? Because some Russians are in Beijing. If they are, they're not in Moscow, you stupid programme directors!

Here, the weather bureau's forecasting got to be much better when they moved to a building with windows in it.

Why not just sit at a desk in front of a green screen?
