News programmes on the telly box
« on: August 11, 2016, 12:21:14 PM »
Is there some device you can get that would block all news programme from off the telly. The six o' clock , the 10  o 'clock , the local , the whole bloody lot of it.  cussing:

I get incensed watching the stiuff now. The other day the BBC were doing their usual impartial journalism and interviewing some poor bloke in Totting Ham after the Paul Duggan anniversary  thing and positively encouraging him to go and start a riot or kill a policeman   noooo:

How is things like the Jewish Community in Stamford Hill finding the cost of housing in London too expensive and moving to Canvey Island news ?

Or the fact the 2 blokes holding hands in a Sainsburys Local offended the sensitivities of a security guard and were asked to leave ?

There apears to be little trustworthy information provided and even less that is informative  noooo:  It would appear they are actively trying to create a doomsday scenario post Brexit as even though there is nothing to report it is all about 'this could ' and 'this may' happen. Surely they cannot report on things that haven't actually occured yet  ???

Also what a waste of feckin money. last night they had a team outside Victoria station reporting on the Southern rail joys and just about 100 footsteps down the road another 'team' reporting outside Westminster Cathedral about some kiddy fiddling god botherer . I presume their viewers would not possible get the connection to the Catholic church if they saved their cab fares and just stayed put in the studio and told the story there.

I cannot bear to watch it anymore - it drives me banonkers  noooo:

:thumbsup:  You are that viewer!

Come Saturday it's wall to wall footie, footie analysis, footie reruns and on channels 472-478 wall to wall Olympics

Mrs K records day time crap and we watch it at all sorts of hours.  When I say 'watch' it's on but usually we're focussing on cats, reading, knitting: (her) something and at least once a week: conversation.
Well, whatever, nevermind
