NBC orders psychological testing for David Gregory
NY Post ^ | 4/21/14 | Emily Smith

NBC’s “Meet the Press” has fallen to such ratings lows that network brass ordered psychological research of the host David Gregory and his family, in a bid to make him more likable.

Friends of Gregory and even his wife were interviewed by a psychologist commissioned by NBC to find out how the host of the flagship Sunday morning show might relate to audiences better.

The Washington Post reported, “Last year, the network undertook an unusual assessment of the 43-year-old journalist, commissioning a psychological consultant to interview his friends and even his wife.

“The idea, according to a network spokeswoman, Meghan Pianta, was ‘to get perspective and insight from people who know him best.’ But the research project struck some at NBC as odd, given that Gregory has been employed there for nearly 20 years.”

The days of “Meet the Press” ruling Sunday mornings seem a long time ago — now it is in third place.

Given that most psychiatrists are themselves off their rocker, this should be interesting...

David Gregory is only 43? Sheesh he has bigger problems then a low audience. He looks at least 60 years old. I wonder if he has enough money to retire. He really needs to take it easy or he is seriously going to die an early death. He looks awful. I hope he gets some help. Stress is not good for anybody.

If I were Gregory, I’d quit the program immediately, because NBC had no right to release the fact they did this unusual action. By leaking it, they are doing a measurable harm to the host.

Of course, he won’t, because he really is screwed up in the head.

The network just needs to enroll him in the Alex Baldwin/Charlie Sheen School of Public Charm for a semester. But I hope the lessons are offered in French (since I think that is what Gregory speaks.)

Sociopaths and psychopaths running psych tests on their minions? Don’t worry it’s probably covered with our money under King Hussein’s TOTALITARIANCARE.

Perhaps he can change his name to Gregory David or have a sex change and become Davidia Gregoria to garner more ratings for his masters.

I can sum it all up NBC and save you tons of money. You aligned yourselves with traitors of this country and pissed off the majority of people. We don’t like you anymore.
