Today he actually was reporting on a tree as if it was a conscious murderer... "and then, without warning, without provocation.... this branch... this huge heavy branch...fell...near the children... the children... at play..." GAG! And how could a tree possibly be provoked.

We agree, this guy is a total idiot and he completely detracts from the news organization that introduced as to the class act that was the late George Michaels. My wife and I cannot understand how NBC4 could stoop so low by keeping this leach on staff. If he is an actually genuine nice guy, then why does he continue to insult the viewing public by sensationalizing tradgedies. This guy is the opitome of an unprofessional knuckle dragger.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11229564.post-54293632933947453852010-02-17T10:34:30.285-05:002010-02-17T10:34:30.285-05:00Oh, thank the FSM, my wife and I thought we were t...Oh, thank the FSM, my wife and I thought we were the only ones who dive for the remote every time we hear his voice.

The facts should be presented for the viewer to interperet....viewers do not want to watch Collins delight in exaggerating the gorey details.

I saw him the other day and thought about telling him that I don't like his style, but then I realized that's just asking for him to speak to me.

Plus, as I wrote him in an email just this morning, there's something of the buffoon about him. He and Fred Vance both irk the daylights out of me, so I really never watch Channel 4. By a fluke, however, I recently caught the loathesome Mr. Collins reporting an accident in which a grandmother and toddler were killed... he wandered the scene of the deaths, picking up pieces of the crashed vehicle and holding them aloft for the camera... ugh. Everything about him makes my skin crawl.
