Top 5 Most Annoying Women in Bay Area Media

Image result for Shrieking noise from women They make you want to scream and curse out loud. They are uncanny in their ability to make otherwise sane and normal people go bat crazy. Unfortunately, they are mostly women TV anchors and reporters; on radio too.

In no particular order, here's my Top 5 most annoying women media people in the Bay Area.

Darya Folsom
*Darya Folsom: KRON4: Why is this yenta still on Bay Area TV News? Oh, wait a minute, never mind...the breathless one with the high-school, glee club demeanor continues to embarrass herself even if it happens to be on the embarrassing KRON, sinking further into the abyss. (Put that on Back Story)

Roqui Theus
*Roqui Theus, KPIX: This used to be sort of unintentionally funny. PIX's awful morning traffic reporter was beginning to get better which meant she was merely bad. Now she's regressed and is making more embarrassing mistakes. The constant mispronunciation of highways and street names. The rapid-fire verbal gaffes. She flubs her lines virtually every time she's on the air. And for gods sake, how can anyone not know the sight of the Golden Gate Bridge? Immediate ejection. Only PIX is apparently going to ride Theus out for the time being because if they can her, someone's going to pay the price. Oh, an upside: Theus is glorious to observe. That's one plus.

Roberta Gonzales
*Roberta Gonzales: KPIX/KCBS Radio: Roberta used to be a fairly decent weather anchor with her folksy and overly-sweet forecasts, and yes, very popular with the PTA demo and men too. Only now, Gonzales, particularly on radio, talks to people as if she's speaking with third-graders. Her disingenuous "Gee whizzes" and phony chatter sound like garbage, an insult really and I don't care, when folks close to her say, "You're getting the 'real Roberta.'" Well, if that's the case Roby needs to change the menu because her food stinks to high heaven.

Gasia Mikaelian
*Gasia Mikaelian: KTVU: A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...Gasia used to be a better-than average news anchor with beauty and grace, read the teleprompter fairly well. Times have a changed. Mikaelian is now a buffoon and acts like a high-school cheerleader auditioning for American Idol. The frequent camera mugging; the hairspray alerts; the insipid sweet talk and BS; oh my god, and I haven't even mentioned her fake, "Go Giants" plugs (bandwagon queen at Channel 2) Gasia: we all know you've been foxified, it's the new regimen at KTVU but try to 86 the coffee and try some tea instead.

*Nikki Medoro: KGO Radio: I thought Chip Franklin was insufferable but this overly chatty, annoying, irritable woman is in a class by herself. Holy cow, stop the chirping and whiny voice, you sound horrible and about as sanguine as a Foster City Arby's.

  1. Rich,
    Darya is sleeping with her boss, that is how she has remained on air. Doing the nasty with the nasty, and I do mean nasty ND at KRON that yells at everyone. But you know that, Go Darya, Go Pero, Go Rich, who's your boyfriend, who's your girlfriend, do the nasty, with the nasty. Thanks for letting me get that out.

    1. I would think that when KRON goes tango uniform, Darya will simply leave this market.

  2. So who would be the top 5 least annoying women?

    1. I'd put Catherine Heenan on the least annoying list, and Kate Kelly on the least annoying list - retro category. On the most annoying list - retro category, the abominable Terilyn Joe holds a particularly infamous position.

  3. The only one I find annoying on your list is Gonzales.

  4. Does ANYBODY know who Nikki Medoro is? That's because NOBODY listens to KGO. Where the hell is Heather Holmes? She should be there in place of Nikki Nobody. Otherwise, solid list.

    1. I definitely prefer Heather Holmes over Keba Arnold. Thank goodness KA is gone. I do not know who Nikki Medoro is.

    2. Heather Holmes and her animal print outfits deserve a top 5 spot. Richard, may I suggest making this a top 6 list to add Heather "snot-gate" Holmes into the mix?

  5. Where's Kate Scott?

    1. You're right 9:42. Kate Scott SHOULD be on this list.
      On the retro list, I'd like to add Wendy Tokuda -- the
      Queen of Redundency!!

  6. The woman that gives meaning to the word annoying, two words, Jan Wahl.

  7. No Natasha Zouves or Kate T. Scott? You must be getting soft . . .

    1. Leave Natasha out of this. Ain't nothing wrong with her.

    2. 11:53...Never will be anything wrong with her, she is in a league all by herself. Most photogenic woman I have ever seen sitting behind an anchor desk.

      She is the kind of woman I would give all of my money to, and rob banks to give her some more money! Hope she never leaves!!

  8. Where's that insipid twit Elizabeth Cook? Insufferably dumb. And those brain-dead asides and segues between stories!!

    1. She's a ding dong but when you're as connected as she is, it doesn't matter.

    2. True 'dat. (I'm wondering, is Disney underwriting her salary?)

      Tonight, at the 49er's preview at Levi she was hamstrung without her t'prompter. She tried to make do with her iPad, but she and I could see it was causing wrinkles.

      So she turned things over to already-wrinkley Kenners.

    3. My wife and I were watching the hurricane coverage from Florida last night on DirecTV, discussing how all the anchors there looked and acted like adults versus what we see locally. I'm so sick of weirdoes, morons and dirtbags with money. We're fed up and I know for a fact we are not alone. I hear it from the pharmacist at San Ramon hospital. My wife hears it from her coworkers at Berkeley.

      It's everywhere. Time for a recession. No, check that. It's time for an earthquake.

  9. Borrowing her own annoying line, "Ding ding ding" on Nikki. Actually, i believe Thurston was doing the ding thing before Medoro and was just as nauseating to listen to.

    On another note, it was nice hearing Kim McCallister the other day.

    1. I've been a huge McAllister fan for a long time. The blackest sounding white woman on Bay Area media.

  10. KRON's Justine Lodes. She reads the news like calling the hogs in,like a young Ethel Merman,like the woman who call out Bingo numbers. Shouting,always shouting.

    Its kind of sad. To be serious for a minute, because she's replaced Kathy Heenan who I saw yesterday and she's lost weight. That's no joke. I would not doubt she's a walking case PTSD over the May "Stay in your lane" incident.

    1. Justine will be gone shortly....for maternity leave!

    2. Here is one for the record books. Keba Arnold and Justine Lodes, sitting side by side announcing a football or baseball game on the radio.

      Delete
    3. 10:58...PTSD. It is caused by exposure to a trauma which is beyond the realm of usual human experience. Often the traumatic situation is sudden, unexpected, and violent, with the threat of injury or death!

  11. Want to know how to ruin a radio talk show?
    Simply hire Nikki Medero as your side kick.
    Guaranteed.

  12. She's not a TV anchor, but she is on TV all the time. She is one of those people that cannot utter one word without waving her arms around like a crazy person, up and down, forward and backwards, this way, that way, every way humanly possible. If they told her to put her hands in her pocket and try to speak, her brain would start to short circuit, like Sheldon on Big Bang when he becomes confused and spit would come out of the side of her mouth as she falls to the ground....Janelle Marie!

  13. I watch KGO in the mornings and Zouves is starting to bother me. She's competent, but there's something in the way she talks and the way her mouth moves that seems so mannered and contrived. Also, she's paired with Jessica Castro and Alexis Smith, while not perfect, make her contrivances more apparent.

    Kate Scott should be on this list for her Certa Pro and My Pillow ads. I want to yell, "Kate, I'm not your friend," during every ad. Back to her work - she knows nothing about sports besides the obvious. A couple days she spouted off something so obvious, even Brian Murphy said something along the lines of, "Well, duh." It would help if she knew Giants/Niners/Warriors opponents besides just the home teams. But that would mean some interest or research, I guess.

  14. What about Chrissie on Ethan Bearman's show? Miss giggles!!

  16. theus ''glorious to OBSERVE'',and we ain't talkin' ''stan''.

  17. Roqui shouldn't be on Bay Area to begin with. She thinks she is untouchable and doesn't take her job seriously- just relies on her producer. She has made a mockery of KPIX

    ReplyDelete
  18. No,THE MOST ANNOYING..has to be Pamela Moore aka "human punching bag/Gary Radnich enabler. To just see him enjoy ripping her knowing she never fights back. He's just smug that he can say she has no guts,4th tier quality anchor, and then tops it with a "I love you ( you dope).
    I don't know what she tells herself to take that. Radnich though loves that she does as he revels in his anger,woman hating issues on her.

  19. Rich, can you explain how Roberta has managed to keep her job for so many years? She's number one on my list for someone who needs to go!!!! I just don't get it. I also think KRON could do with out Big "D", but I understand why she's still around.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Hands down the most annoying Woman behind the scenes. KGO-TV ND Tracey "Trixie" Watkowski. The worst boss in the Bay Area.

    ReplyDelete
  21. You know who needs to be called out for extreme homerism? KNBR and KRON.
    KNBR has said nothing about the Raiders all week!.The Warriors on 10-1pm? Nothing.
    How do you do hours on the low level 49ers and ignore the resurgence of the Raiders?
    It makes me wonder Rich if we will soon hear Fitz and Brooks say "Yes,the Warriors had an undefeated season- but far too many games were close"
    You know- from one extreme to the other now that the Warriors are a 95.7 team.
    KRON? What Raiders?..

    ReplyDelete
  22. Stanley brings up things that aren't news to those with brains, which eliminates most of the listeners to KNBR. They're brainwashed to worship the Giants. On top of that, if you're not on KNBR, they don't care about you. What kind of sports station is that? The Raiders are going to swallow up the 49ers for coverage. Will KNBR care? No. That baldheaded cretin Lee Hammerhead will eat another donut and focus on the 49ers. If the Giants make an announcement during the offseason, it will be treated like the second coming of the Kennedys.

    And when is KPIX going to get smart and get rid of Theus? Every day, the station credibility takes another hit. They've been hit so much there's no space left on the facade of their spaceship. The higher ups read Richie's blog. Unless they can't read English, they should know Theus isn't worth the poop out of a cow's ass.

  23. Heather Holmes, Gasia, and Roberta are the most annoying . Julie Haener is a class act that I can't see Heather Holmes replacing.

    1. We spent last night watching the hurricane coverage and I have to tell you, Sandy Shaw of WPBF is almost a blonde and blue eyed version of Gasia. She's extremely pretty but to live with on a daily basis? No thanks.
