Troubadours were itinerant minstrels in the middle ages who, notwithstanding the romantic notion of "wandering minstrels", traveled a regular circuit on a yearly basis. They entertained wherever they could gather an audience, and were sometimes invited into the homes of the royal and rich. Their songs were, most often, musical settings of the news of the day, and also (sometimes predominantly) the gossip of the times. If you combined an anchorperson from a network news broadcast with an anchorperson from one of the tabloid news programs, gave them a decent singing voice, and a lute to strum, you'd have a medieval minstrel.
