Talk the talk

This might be a matter of the pot calling the kettle black*, but I'm a little disturbed by what I hear on the radio these days. Not just the news, which is generally depressing, but the way it's delivered. This morning, an ABC newsreader referred to something happening "outside of" Rome. Why not just outside Rome? Also, there's one News Radio announcer who inevitably pronounces "for" as "fer" as says "gunna" instead of "going to".
* My excuse is that it's not my day job.
