I have to wonder if these people who get all bothered about teleprompters have ever given a speech?

I have, but never on TV. I have given a speech on radio, no notes no teleprompter. I had a basic outline but thats it. Before you ask it was for a jive morning radio program trying to win a prize. I have acted on stage as well.

From what I remember of my public speaking course in HS, giving a speech from notes, even on ones palm, would be far more difficult then reading from a teleprompter. Notes, written on cards or ones palm, or "talking points" are far harder to make a speech with then a teleprompter.

If you are a bad public speaker, use a teleprompter. If I ever had to again and had a choice I would use notes, to give me the room to improvise.

But I am confused...

Im leaving this one alone, too easy.
