What Newscasters look like after they deliver bad information

news anchors incessantly to find themselves within the uncomfortable place of handing over unhealthy news to a complete nation, and a few of them are beautiful terrible at hiding their soreness. Nowhere is that this better documented than in Jure Kastelic’s implausible freeze-body photo collection, which captures newscasters at the actual moment they turn out to be the bearers of bad news.

The gem stones in Kastelic’s photo collection death reporters vary from overly dramatic expressions of woe to ill-timed profitable smiles, with various colours of near-laughter in between (see the RCCTV news anchor reporting on the Algerian hostage problem, whose efforts to masks a smile resulted in a look of unlucky confusion).

other highlights include a Fox news anchor affected by such RBF that she looks as if she must be delivering the information, “on Wednesdays, we put on crimson” reasonably than saying that a van crashed right into a canal, killing eight passengers. And my sympathies lie with the girl from CNN, the one one who appears really stricken, however probably completely so.

it’s laborious not to empathize a bit of bit. Who amongst us hasn’t reacted inappropriately all over a grave scenario? the rationale we snort, psychologists counsel, is to inspire and comfort ourselves in the face of trauma. however a notice to broadcast journalists: it is now not comforting to others.
