Morning Show Hosts Day – September 27, 2022, history significance why we celebrate fact’s timeline
Morning Show Hosts Day, celebrated on September 27, is a day dedicated to getting to know the personalities behind your favorite morning show. Morning show hosts are picked for a variety of reasons. So, this day offers a great opportunity to appreciate the extra zing morning show hosts bring to their shows. You can also learn about the history behind morning shows and how they came to be in their present form.
History of Morning Show Hosts Day
TV Networks like ABC, NBC, and CBS all rate their morning show hosts based off of Q Scores, a data analysis company that tracks the ratings of TV personalities so that way their clients find the most compatible resources for their brand. So, for shows like Good Morning America, CBS This Morning, and the Today show, there’s a lot of consideration that goes into the hiring process of these hosts.
However, it is undeniable that these hosts are talented. They essentially have to keep the attention span of their audience throughout their show, and for those who wake up early in the morning and are getting ready for their day, it can be a difficult task.
Morning Talk Shows aim their information towards two audience groups; those heading off to work and those staying to watch the show. The early morning segments are generated towards hard news;
often featuring updates on major stories that occurred overnight or during the previous day, political news, interviews, business/sports, weather forecasts (either on a national or regional basis), and traffic reports. The second half for those staying to watch the show is aimed towards a softer news segment, where the hosts report about human interests, lifestyle, and entertainment
