Okay, here is the thing. In my country we don't make a big deal of "news anchors". Sure, some names are more known, but it's more like a meme, like "oh, this anchor talks like this and they look like that, lets make a funny reference in a joke", so I don't understand how and why American ones got so self-important.
This woman looks like a clone of a clone, overbotoxed second wife of a rich guy, hanging out at the yacht club.
Why should anyone care? She has no right to pretend she makes the news. She is a talking head. You don't want to hear your waitress pretend to be a dietetician. Bookstore clerks don't form literature. I don't care about my dog groomer's opinion on environmentalisms.
She does make the news. She makes it up. And the most interesting thing about any time she was on the air was what the most outrageous lie she'd spout would be, like when she voiced her indignation about the Jussie Smollett faked hate crime.
The channels ALLOW them to do that? I'm not saying here news aren't biased. But they don't allow their anchors to go off script, there is not much... personality, I guess. Sometimes they go "Yeeeeah, that baby alpaca we just showed is adorable, ain't it?". But the news are not portrayed as personal for them, because we all just agree that it's their job to say the stuff and then they go home.
It would be absolutely out of question for the person to voice something that is (supposed to be) their own opinion on air. No way.
(Just a side note, I am kind of up to date with a lot of US pop culture, but it's usually fiction or something described informally. I never watch US news and even the things I do watch, I don't do it actually on TV as it airs. So my cultural understanding of these things is very limited and filtered.)

I am confused. You say you're up to date with US pop culture when it's fiction, but then you say that you don't watch US news. That's quite a large portion of the output of fiction that you are ignoring.
I think the whole news anchor as celebrity/personality thing originated with Walter Cronkite: The Most Trusted Man in America. Used to watch him every night as a kid.
women are inherently very much self-interested. this is a biological imperative, because if they are not their offstring suffer and/or die. for this reason, they have absolutely no working concept of self-sacrifice, honor, comradre, or other exclusively male instincts. project these onto women at your own peril.
Brooke Baldwin was always there to confirm every stereotype about blond women. There was never an intelligent word that came out of her mouth. But in her defense, she did manage to editorialize on the horrific hate crime against Jussie Smollett, because we definitely needed that.

Only when they spout approved opinions.

HURRR. I don't care about fiction unless it has dragons. Not even CNN is that bad. Yet. They have harpies and trolls, though.

And they call you the Queen of Thorns, when they should be calling you Dany.
I never fucked any of my family members.
Ah man, thanks for reminding me of what I worked hard to forget.
She is likely just smearing them with their audience as revenge for things not working out for her. It's one of the weapons women use against people.
Obviously CNN is total garbage though, so who really cares?
Like most celebrity women, she didn’t have a problem with it when it was making her millions of dollars and she was popular.
This same cycle repeats with a these female morons.
