I'm an X-buff, but G's 'educated' locutions are getting to me. I notice it all the

So you all must know: Is she rich? Did she go to prep school? I'd put MONEY on her
having a fancy background. She talks like a Hamptons girl or something. ...Barbara
Walters represents the lowest aspect of this accent. Only the fanciest people have
it.
How can anyone in TV let her keep it? It's so snobbish and cultivated! It's totally
inappropriate if not acknowledged. They should have the damnedably doubtful Scully confess that she really doesn't have to work!!! Trustfunder!!! How else can
she afford to make a SWAT assault on the Peacocks in a $500 suit!
I need to know I'm not alone out there...!

I HATE the way she speaks, it gets to my nerves. It's as if she is above everybody else. No, you're not alone out there.
