Yahoo!7 Sunrise – Weekend Sunrise.
Andrew O’Keefe of Weekend Sunrise must surely be one of the worst presenters on television. WEE had the unfortunate experience of listening to him blather on this morning during a live telecast of the pope being flown around over Sydney in a Helicopter.
A more banal commentary you could not have found.
This man, and the giggling female presenters that surround him are a disgrace. Now, don’t take this in the wrong way, WEE is no fan of the pope or the catholic religion, but WEE do believe television presenters covering such things should at least conduct themselves with some dignity, and with some sensitivity to people among their viewers that may be of the catholic faith.
The effort of O’Keefe and his band of moronic air heads this morning was a sad reflection on the state of television in this country. The visit of the pope is a reasonably interesting and newsworthy event – but were WEE offered any real information about his visit or the ceremony? No, just banalities and commentary that revealed the ignorance and indifference of the hosts to the visit. Maybe they don’t like the pope. Maybe they were pissed that they were having to present his visit. Who knows? But there was no reason to inflict us with their boredom.
The executives at Seven should take note of the talentless presenters they have on the weekend version of this mundane program – although WEE suspect they probably don’t tune in themselves and probably wouldn’t have a clue what goes on!
