View Full Version : Fox News narrator the same as Lockheed Martin?

I just saw the most pro-war commercial on CNN just now for Lockheed Martin... it showed soldiers from all branches of the military, and the narrator's voice sounded awfully familiar. Then it struck me - he sounded EXACTLY like the "We Report, You Decide" voice on FAUX News.

Now i KNOW that he's probably just another for hire voice talent. I just found it an odd (and slightly disturbing) coincidence.

Just thought i'd point that out, for entertainment purposes only :)

Probably got the gig for the Lockheed ad through contacts at Fox. Voiceover talents do specialize in character types-- he probably specializes in "authoritative-sounding male for conservative-leaning products." No kidding, they really do.

Good ear!

Ron Paul should hire Don LaFontaine (aka the "preview guy") to do his voiceovers in NH commercials...
