Their lack of knowledge of the system is, to be honest, undertsandable
as they tend to be the journos at the star of the process to becoming
a top flight presenter with brains, that said the appalling offerings
on Skys rolling news does not instill confidence that the (w)anchors
have a clue what they are "on about".


I think the Sky News anchors/presenters are probably chosen to be less
than totally bright in order not to make the channel's target audience
feel that they are being talked down to.


Kay Burley... shudder!



I think you meant Ms Whiplash. ;-)

She's the exception that proves the rule. She talks down to (and
upsets) everyone, especially politicians, celebrities and famous
people.

The worst possible thing to happen was for Bill Clinton to let it be
known (on a visit to the UK) that he fancied her, having seen her on
breakfast TV. It went completely to her head. Perhaps no-one had the
heart to tell her that Bill Clinton fancies anything in a skirt, and
completely loses all self-control when a blue dress is involved. ;-)
