Rob Nelson World News Now (WNN)

Ok, so I,m one of those admitted insomniacs that seem to always end up watching WNN. They deliver the news in such an entertaining format that next to the internet it is my most enjoyable source of catching up on what people are thinking and talking about. So when they reported that Jeremy Hubbard had been promoted and was leaving I was more than a little anxious.
You see, night owl's like me are creatures of habit and we don't take kindly to these types of changes. I felt like I was being betrayed by ABC News. Who would replace Jeremy? We had grown accustomed to the big, then the skinny (no pun intended) Jeremy. Why were they ruining my late night routine? I was determined to sulk. Must everything good be taken away? Vinita Nair and Jeremy Hubbard had incredible chemistry that could not be easily replicated, right?
Wrong, they found this guy from New Orleans named Rob Nelson. We dont know much about Rob but I think this will soon change. One of the most down to earth and personable anchors I have ever seen. Watching Rob is like getting the news from an old friend. He shatters that old adage that you have to be stuffy to deliver the news. He has an excellent sense of humor and is just the right mix of serious journalist, sugar- coated with charm and likability.  Who wouldn't want to hang out with this guy? Rob Nelson has done the almost impossible by successfully replacing Jeremy Hubbard and, in the process, bringing Vinita out of her shell even more. WNN has definitely surpassed itself this time and kept this insomniac and news lover happy, informed and entertained. Just wish I knew more about Rob. Take the poll at the bottom of the page and let me know what you think.
