Alex Coles RT @CBSNews: Earlier, we inadvertently said Microsoft had introduced IOS 10. It was actually Windows 10. We regret the error

Al, you know the main duty of a network news announcer is to look pretty, have big hair, and be able to read phonetically spelled words on a teleprompter/ cue cards. A giant head can make up for some deficiencies (see Sean Hannity) as can shouting at the top of your lungs, (see Chris Berman/ Bill O' Reilly) but the ability to read phonetically is a must. Knowledge of the subject at hand is but a trifling matter.

If you've ever walked by a highly accredited School of Broadcast Journalism at a major university, you'll hear the students singing "I am hooked on phonics, 'cause phonics is hooked on me." at dawn and dusk.
