BBC: World newscast with David Austin, about the Greek Government’s debt crisis, Italy’s accusations of selling arms to Iran, Ethiopian rebels, and other world issues.
The newscast was very informative, however, the voice quality was extremely monotone. While this is understandable because the reporters and announcers have to be very professional and neutral on such newscasts, it is very unpleasant for the listener. Overall, the quality of the sound was clean and easy to listen to. This newscast was exactly 4 minutes and 59 seconds.
NPR: Corva Coleman was the announcer of the newscast. This newscast primarily focused on what was happening in America, although it did incorporate some important pieces of world news. It also included a small segment from a press conference held by President Obama, who talked about healthcare and the economy.
The quality of the sound is very crisp and clear. Coleman, along with the reporters who were a part of the newscast all had engaging voices that were neutral and professional, yet not monotone and boring. This newscast was more interesting for me because it had better sound quality, along with better announcers and stories. Its length was 4 minutes and 45 seconds.
