Why he might be annoying:

    He pled no contest to DUI after fatally striking a pedestrian in Miami (December 10, 1990).
    Following a segment about soldiers celebrating Thansksgiving in Iraq, he quipped, 'Do you know the official military policy on fruitcake? Don't ask, don't tell.'
    For CNN stories, he has been tasered, waterboarded, submerged in a sinking car and left atop a snow-covered mountain overnight.
    He was fired by CNN after calling Jon Stewart a bigot and suggesting that the Jews controlled America's television news outlets (September 30, 2010).

Why he might not be annoying:

    He simultaneously had Spanish and English language shows on TV and radio.
    He anchored CNN's Hurricane Katrina coverage for eight straight hours as the levees broke in New Orleans.
    He won an Emmy for the program 'Cuando sali de Cuba (When I Left Cuba).'
