MSNBC introduced Meet the Press six days a week, (MTP Daily), with adequate, predictable results, the standard blond heads or two or three, image repeatability at the mention of a name, with one small blessing, I am appreciative of no news crawl, however, it’s still as if it’s an industry standard that all producers, program directors must follow, having attended the same school, read the same books on how to produce a political talk show. It is possible to predict where and when an image will be inserted into the program, again, how often a loop will be played, again, the split screen deployed, again, a few seconds discussing someone’s home team a must. Some will claim most egregious of all a sound bite printed on the bottom of the screen having just been uttered by the guest being read by the viewer, another comment is missed not consumed or even heard because of the screen print. Someday someone will come along and throw out the playbook on political talk shows, of course that will be the end of life on earth as we now know it…
