Oh, tell me why

This is an ongoing pet peeve.

Overheard during a newscast:
"...Police are also looking over those tapes as well."   

Look here, news directors, news writers, news producers, and NEWSCASTERS (i.e; "talking heads") - if you use the word "also" in a sentence during a story, you do NOT need to use the phrase "as well."  It just makes you look (and sound) stupid.

How come I can't get a job?
