CBS News' radio white house correspondent is Mark Knoller. What's with his voice?
Edited on Thu Oct-23-08 02:56 PM by Husb2Sparkly
Knoller is a veteran newsman from back in the day when they actually gathered and reported actual news.

I hear him from time to time on DC's AllNoozRadio WTOP when they cut to the CBS network on the hour.

His voice has the same quality as RFK Jr's .... quavering but understandable.

I can find nothing with a google search. Anyone know what the story is?

(I generally like Mark Knoller .... not looking for nasty shit; just facts.)

2. I'm glad you aked that, because I forget his name before I think about posting the same question.
He's on the CBS Radio news during Randi Rhodes show. I think his voice is even more strange than RFK Jr.'s. What's up?

5. That's what Kennedy has, right?
Knoller's voice, while similar, sounds like a different affliction. But I have no idea. That's just my impression.
