This is something that has bugged me for years. With all the people making sure the makeup, lighting, wardrobe, etc. is perfect for TV talk shows, why are the men's neckties often crooked?
Seriously, I don't mean to nit pick, but once you zero in on this it becomes like punching the other kid when you see a yellow car or whatever the "spot" of the day is. You cannot, and I repeat CANNOT, watch the show without your eyes locking on the crooked tie.
One of my favorites is David Gregory on Meet the Press. His grooming is impeccable---except for the tie which is always off to the side. Yep. The knot is almost never squarely in the middle. Sorry, Mr. Gregory, but someone should straighten it before you go on the air!
Okay. If you decide to join Crooked Tie Spotters Anomynous, I guarantee you'll never watch another talk show again without seeing offenders. Happy Sunday.
