Well thanks a bunch dude/dudette -- how about a little substance to your critique so that I may stand properly corrected ??!

Annual check-in re Noory -
Sorry folks, this is two months late for being an annual review. Can you ever forgive me ?
George Noory is still a toxic personality, tho he's gotten better about covering it up by lightening up his on-air persona. Not quite as dimwitted and uninspiring. Fourteen months ago I complained about how "dismalifying" (love that word which I had just made up!) how slowly, if at all, he wises up to his shortcomings -- he has made a brave attempt to making it look like he really cares. Maintains his bad habit of "stepping on" guests and callers right when they're just about to finish a sentence and make the all important conclusive observation, and alas, his "perfected" (contrived and artificial sounding) laugh is embarrassingly ever-present. Still a bit of the "Yes" man, rarely venturing away from the stale brown-nosing reply to his guests of, "Yeah I agree too" or "Oh yes I think so tooooooooooo..."
"His serious failings flaunt themselves when he refuses -- to any degree -- to provide a balanced view on current issues in the first minutes if the program, nor when he dedicates a whole two hour segment to gun-loving John Locke, or Quayle or the other Steve or that self-indulging, Islam-hating asshole Howard Bloom who sees enemies of Israel under every carpet" . . . This remains a problem in spite of his persistent insistence that he IS fair and balanced, and yet religiously features his personal favs among right wing pundits and "experts" in the opening minutes of "news" (I will grant that Bloom is now more of a delight to listen to now that he has laid off of Islam -- as far as I know. I'm not a faithful addict of C2C, I get my real fix off of Heather W). Thus far he has refused to let go of (or mature out from under) his fixation with evil, as tho it is a fundamental scientific principal. Lastly, his hollow, and lacking of all intellectual capacity snippets of his take on the most elementary phenomena, ghostly apparitions, the latest mischief from North Korea, etc, etc. places him squarely in the middle of the middle school radio club.
What worries me now is, is his improved radio face and voice destined to convince new listeners that he is really "normal" ??
