How can this guy continue to present when he has clearly disappeared up his own ar$e?
The ridiculous elongating of words at the end of every sentence - which he admitted to cultivating to be his "trademark" - and now the hilarious new hairstyle.

I have wondered if his supposed affectations speech wise cover up a stammer. I have one (stammer not affectation) and whilst I don't do that there is no doubt that speaking in a sort of sing song way does negate the stammer. No stammerer stammers whilst singing oddly....

The guy is very intelligent and a great writer but I have to agree with the OP about his presentation on the news - I can't listen to him.

I don't think the independent television companies would entertain a bumbling presenter like him.
The BBC used to be famous for their people always speaking clearly and without accent.
Now it's an obligation to sound odd. And from abroad in many cases.
