It's not just a question of "understanding" what's said though. Being articulate is not about accent and it's not about big words. It's about being capable of putting words together effectively to convey meaning, sometimes sophisticated, subtle meaning that's based on evidence and analysis. Anyone speaking on the radio should be articulate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Sanchez Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 When Alex Rae is doing Open All Mics and doing a halftime recap or whatever he sounds as if he's reading it while running his finger along the page to keep track of where he is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bennett Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 8 hours ago, DA Baracus said: Do they? What other reports have they done on that sort of stuff? They discuss the Sevco manager job at length on every single program. That's not being balanced or fair. And are you suggesting that they should just bump every other item for such a story, despite having loads of shows to talk about it? They bumped a feature on Dundee the other night because they 'ran out of time' talking about Celtic and Sevco. If Celtic fans want to hear them talk about sevco then Dundee will have to take a back seat. (Insert smudger pic) 7 hours ago, kingjoey said: Ah, but is it? Are you certain? You appear to be the only person that I’ve found that calls him Thomas, which is obviously meant to be a clever putdown. Tom is used as a full name in loads of cases, like Tom and Jerry.
