As for glee (or anything else) in a newsreader's voice, I choose to receive and process facts, rather than be manipulated by 'tone'. How about you wipe your eyes, take a deep breath, then join us adults in the rational world, huh? Atta boy. It'll be alright. The world is unpleasant. Welcome to it. Oh, and the words and phrases I use to school you? Don't repeat them back to me. Makes you look...unoriginal. A story about inquiry findings *IS* less tragic than a 12-weeks-ago crash.

The way he announces the plane crash story with almost glee in his voice compared to the anger and shock over the twitter story is simply disgusting. Is twitter being down news? Not with as often as it happens. Is i t worth mentioning to his viewer, sure. l Twitter announcing that ahead of time IS though. Marc it would serve you well to listen more carefully to the news you're watching, and hear the tone of the message, and think about the actual people involved. You need to reexamine yourself, and try again. The issue isn't that he announced these storys in the wrong order, (not to me) the tone he took, one after the other. Try again. Marc, just be cause the story is about inquiry findings doesn’t make the story any less tragic.

Both of you miss the point. The object of posting this video and its "Shame On You" setup was to somehow convince readers that Sanchez "newsed up" the Twitter outage, then placed it in a higher priority than a crash in which "15 people died" (and it's 50 people, OK? Details count.) First of all, interaction with Twitter/MS/FB users is key to Sanchez' program. To announce that one of those services is down is a valid programming note. Secondly, the crash story wasn't about people dying. It was about inquiry findings. I am no Sanchez apologist. I am a customer of TV news. If you'd like criticize a television program, it would serve you and your credibility well to arm yourself with correct information. In this case, you do not have that. Breathe deeply...it'll be alright. Try again. No, again. Both of you miss the point.

That tweet is extremely childish and dumb and makes CNN look bad. Also Marc is missing the point on this, is twitter being down actually news? nope.

I love the directness and honesty that you approach things with Allen.

Had you allowed the clip to play a few more seconds, you would have learned that Sanchez was talking about a plane crash three months ago, and he was introducing a story about the FAA and NTSB's crash investigation findings. In fact, the very next words out of his mouth when that clip ended were, "So why am I talking about that crash now?" then he explains why. This clip, and your setup to it are misleading. but you wouldn't know that, would you? Because you were too busy throwing your outraged hands in the air and hyperventilating with indignation. Stop. Take a breath. Stop flapping your lips and pay attention to things that are not your own voice. There...doesn't that feel better? You're welcome. No, no, no.
