In an interview on HuffPost Live, former “GMA” host Sam Champion said network morning television’s “getting to the point where I need a costume malfunction moment, you know what I mean? It’s getting … to a hysteria of everything’s gotta be flashing all the time”:

“Let’s just say, on any given day if you’re watching a network morning show, I’m going to find a cast of the ‘Housewives,’ I’m going to find a ‘Dancing’ star, I’m going to find a musical concert, I’m going to find shopping…That’s morning television. But it isn’t, and it shouldn’t be.”

Champion says his Weather Channel show, “AMHQ” tries to be better, by focusing on “stories you’re not going to find in mainstream media…I think you want to be smarter when you walk out the door. So let’s talk about things that will impact you.”
