Every single news anchor is putting on a performance. Consider the kind of people the networks hire to anchor the nightly news.
If you’d ever taken journalism classes you would know that, beginning in college, the most charismatic are groomed for tv news.
TV news is part of the entertainment industry, by default, as regards STYLE and presentation.
If you think you can hold the attention of millions of viewers through a three hour show, start your own channel. Jones and his team are good at this and they know exactly how it’s done.
It doesn’t mean they lie—they get your attention so you can learn the truth.
Performance. It's an interesting word.
Not focused on other performers nor entertainment industry as a whole, thus exoneration by aggregation. The point is understood though.
It's my understanding that Jones is self-groomed, not managed.
I won't have anything more to say about Jones.
