The Today Show’s Ann Curry annoys us. Really annoys us.
Specifically, it’s her annoying interview technique that bugs us. The exaggerated, hunched over posturing toward the subject of her interview. The deep, serious voice she affects. Oh, yeah, and her softball questions.
“Your wife is front and center as Secretary of State at a time when this world, this country is in a world of hurt,” she said to Bill Clinton on Monday’s Today Show. “What’s your faith in her?”
C’mon, Ann, what did she think he was going to say? “Well, she’s already pissed off the North Koreans. And the Palestinians say she’s no Madeleine Albright. But I’m just happy because the job keeps her away from Chappaqua.”
Ann Curry. Another reason we hate the media.

Nice to hear Ann Cury today state that she looks like a bum trying to keep warm in her huge jacket. Did anybody catch that today 3/6/12 at approx 8am est. ?
When Ann Curry got the job that Meredith Vieira left open, I vowed never to watch the Today show again. I can't stand her soft, mushy, gushy style. The problem is that the other morning news programs are even worse. Telling the former President of the United States that he looked "cute"? Give me a break. How unprofessional could you be? To NBC...is this really the best you can do? It's pathetic.
Jules0417:"the other morning news programs are even worse"
I think "Fox & Friends" is pretty good. Occasionally when Pat Buchanan is on "Morning Joe" and Scarborough is acting like the conservative he used to be, "Morning Joe" can be watchable in small doses. Morning television is so liberal for the most part though.
brother lion
i'm happy to learn from you
please, for that sake of a newbie commentator. grant me your critiques
Ann Curry + Mute Button = Viewer Eye Candy
Ann Curry + Sound On = Listener Loss of I.Q. Points
Ann Curry is eye candy??????? Good lord, Necron, you need to get out more often.
Would you prefer Golda Meir?
Ahh the "Munich" prime minister.. i was a wee lad at the time, and didn't know about her until i saw the movie
If you have seen the movie then follow up and do the research on her. She, like Margaret Thatcher, was one smart, tough lady. Hillarous Clinton is merely a wanna-be, she isn't fit to polish either of those ladies shoes.
Israelis kick ass. I don't put any stock in Revelations regarding Israel-- its more that i just don't see how Arabs can lay claim to that land (what? Muhammed flew to Jerusalem on a flying horse.. gimme a break).
I am still laughing at this emerging story of likely Israeli hacking of Iran's nuclear facility, causing up to 20% of their centrifuges to spin themselves to death
She is not entirely hideous.. but she's no Natasha Curry
Turned off her interview of Gov. Christie in disgust. Talk about softball questions. Just lob them up so he can hit his Republican agenda out of the park. Totally missed the issue in Madison, WS. Just sat back and let him sell us that "it's about the money". Will never watch her again.
Here is a little clue for you larry, Christie is the Governor of NEW JERSEY! Why would Little Orphan Annie ask him any questions about the things going on in Wisconsin?
"Republican agenda" larry? Are you kidding me? "It's about the money"? Of course it's about the money, because neither state has any money! The issue in Jersey, Wisconsin, Kalifornia, many other states, is not about political parties or the idiots in them. The issue is these states are broke, the wallet is empty, and EVERYONE is going to have to cut back and help.
It is quite amazing how pretty, hot, good looking idiots climb up the ladder perhaps leaving behind the intelligent, coherent, witty ones behind. Ann Curry is an example. She is good looking - sure and all her accomplishment ends there or are there because of that. She is annoying, BAD, boring, mind-numbing when she interviews, she is creepy in her body language and gesture with her 45deg incline, put on seriousness in her voice, psedo concern as if she can even comprehend or care, and then she delivers the most idiotic, inconsequential, trivial question and nods. GEEEEEEZ! now she is peppered everywhere.
