I take your point, but there are... well, at least two people. He's chatting with someone off-screen. QueerDuck 1 hr ago #3

So much dead air. 😴💤🛌

But, he certainly does get excited and animated when he reads the news. He's quite happy and excited, isn't he?

Is he doing a "better job" than I could do as a one-person operation... certainly. But in the end, it is the definition of amateur night.

Aside from the dull format ... just a close-up of a guy reading headlines over a loud, clicking keyboard. As he reads sentence fragments with no context, bits of other comments in the live stream, or a how his unfiltered observational words escape his mouth (also with no context) it's more frustrating than informative.

Also, considering his apparent delight when reading the breaking news about Graham... although it mirrors my own personal delight too... it's a departure from the "Agenda Free" label they chose for themselves. Whether it was nervous energy or something else, it was shockingly unprofessional and a prime example of why these unedited solo streams can't match real journalism.

But in all seriousness, this is just a forum where people ofetn evaluate news sources. There's really no need for the hostility, and definitely no need to take my critique of a YouTuber so personally.

I was just sharing a my honest observations and opinions of a public news broadcast. We don’t have to agree on the format, but we can definitely keep the conversation civil, can't we? Let's try to keep it friendly in the future.
