I think the new lineup has swung too far towards soft stories and entertainment versus reporting the news. I preferred the old arrangement when “the news is back in the morning” was the tag line. I don’t want to hear the hosts’ opinions about everything they report, and that’s happening too often now with Gayle as the lead host. We need a show that provides accurate reporting with the top national and international stories of the day, not another show where the hosts insert themselves into everything. By comparison, The Saturday Morning show with Anthony Mason strikes the right tone in a relaxed way without trying too hard. Perhaps that could be the template for the weekly show. I appreciate how difficult it must be to compete with the other morning shows, but please don’t give up your former strengths. It’s what distinguished you from the competition.
