BEDROOM VOICE

Janelle over at I95, that bedroom voice you used when you were reading the 6pm newscast on Friday was not appropriate.
Yes the training says you should imagine you are telling your story to one person in order to sound more conversational, but you should probably imagine that person fully dressed.

And the person who wrote that story out of Parliament with the National Security Minister clearly left their hearing aid at home! The audio quality on Martin Joseph's soundbites was awful. It sounded like someone was crumpling a piece of paper next to his mic during his speech. They didn't hear that during the editing process?
When your listener is distracted, they can't hear the rest of what you have to say.
