nominees for world news with diane sawyer fauxdition announced
With my sincere thanks to the record 96 participants in this faux-dition and the gracious judges (all of whom said the process was very difficult) there are now terrific 11 nominees for you to vote on (11 because there was a tie for 10th spot and 11 is a bigger number than 10 and because I said so.)
First, a little housekeeping (PLEASE READ)
THE RULES FOR VOTING ON NOMINEES
1. The decision of audio’connell voice over talent (that would be me) is final
2. Nobody has a chance to get the real announcer job at World News with Diane Sawyer as the job has long ago been ably filled and because this is an unofficial and very silly contest.
3. Please choose your top three choices, numbering them 1, 2, 3 with your first choice (1) being your favorite (three different announcers, NOT three votes for one person, etc.)
4. Type your vote in the comment section of this blog post below
5. You may only vote once and you are on the honor system
6. Voting will end when I say it does, probably a couple of weeks I’m guessing
OK, the floor is yours. Have fun! Click HERE to listen to the nominees then please come back to vote below in the comment box.

ps…watch out for the next audition…I’ll make sure I get my audition in!
I’m shocked I tell you, shocked that you allow gambling in this establishment … oops, wrong movie.
I’m shocked I tell you, that there’s only one woman in the running for a leading female anchor’s introduction.
I’m not at all shocked that Tammy McDaniel is a finalist, and that she nailed it!! The other 2 in my list were quite good, too.
1 – Tammy McDaniel
2 – Bryan Haymond

Dear friends of Ralph (and any other nominees):
I greatly appreciate your support of your nominee, be he or she you friend, lover, spouse or dog walker. But voting for just one nominees is not how we do this.
Please pick three nominees from those provided.
If you want Ralph or someone else to be number one, that’s fine…but please listen and pick two other nominees as well.
And only one vote per person please.
As it stands, any vote with less than three different nominee names will be disqualified and will not count in the tabulations.
My house. My rules. Thanks.
Best always,
- Peter
P.S. Any one name or two name nominations have been or will be deleted. Thanks

My #1 pick not only sounds better, but I’m sure is better looking than Morgan Freeman! Lotsa good choices here…
1 – Tammy McDaniel
2 – Philip Ives
3 – Dan Harder
First, I am shocked that only one woman was chosen as a finalist.
1.) Jay Douglas
2.) Dan Harder (though he used the word “world” in the script twice when it should have been only once and that sounded strange.)
3.) Rich Brennan (his voice was too deep IMO for this, but nevertheless, very good delivery.)
