How did Andrew Neil last so long at the Beeb? on 12:16 - Feb 8 by lowhouseblue
no you want to see one very narrow and blinkered and self-congratulatory view of the world.
Wow! Stunning lack of self-awareness from you there.
I want to talk about real issues and the policies with which we can address them. You think the real world is electoral politics and messaging ... that’s peak narrow, blinkered and self-congratulatory.

absolutely i was political about corbyn - he brought about another 5 years of tory government exactly as i said he would. under his leadership the party was found to have failed to deal with institutional anti-semitism - again, i agree, i did point that out even before the ehrc findings.
but being political doesn't mean you have to stop thinking or abandon basic critical reasoning and comprehension skills. having read it i don't see the 2002 article as racist and don't feel any need to pretend that i do.
and referring to someone as 'it' is more pathetic than abusive. it's primary school stuff.
"Abandon" suggests you once had the skills to which you refer. Based on your posting history I find that highly implausible. If you let me know your preferred pronouns I'll use those in future.

Speaking of pronouns, I see the Moose is being forward-thinking as ever and put his in his sig!
Maybe we should all do this to avoid any potential microaggressions on the board.

The Beeb have also fallen down in other areas as well. For example, the amount of airtime given to Farage and other UKIP politicians on Question Time was always hugely disproportionate for a party with no elected MPs and was even disproportionate taking into account their relative success in European elections. Here is one of the articles on it: https://www.thenational.scot/news/17738177.bbc-question-time-fire-bias-towards-b
I think the BBC generally is excellent but over the past 5 or 6 years they've started to buy into the populist feels not reals agenda of first the Brexiteers and then the current incarnation of the Tory Party. That's been quite damaging in a number of ways, and they have engaged in an awful lot of client journalism which is disappointing given what we expect from the BBC.

I called Rod Liddle subhuman scum, which he is. That was descriptive, not abusive. If you don't know who he is you're not really best placed to comment.
If your post was not deemed offensive why was it removed.

If that's the case I owe you an apology
No need to apologise. I'm sure if you were aware that Rod Liddle is someone who has received a caution for assaulting his pregnant girlfriend and who has a history of making misogynistic, racist, homophobic, and Islamaphobic comments, then you'd probably understand why I called him scum.

Lowers also knows the EHRC report said nothing anywhere near what his and Glassers’ smeary narrative was saying.
Lowers is a Labour supporter in the same way Glassers is a Tory. They absolutely typify our shyte, self-interested and ultimately not-fit-for-purpose politics. When you get into the game so far, there’s zero difference between Red/Blue, the government/opposition which is why both of them would vote for whoever gave them their next fix.

He’s right though
The channel hasn’t even started yet.
It’s ridiculous.
I hate Eastenders, guess what..... I don’t watch it
Your dealing with people who want that channel gone as it will take viewers away from existing outlets. Not that anyone under 35 watches TV anymore.

Bit different though isn't it? This channel will be more right wing and could move the centre even further to the right. That's what people don't like. We don't need our own Fox News.
Compare this with the wonderfully neutral Jon Snow of C4 News .

Yes, they really are the same, those pro-equality and human rights vs racists, bigots, xenophobes and the filthy rich who'd throw you off a cliff for a fiver.

You can’t really be trying to draw an equivalence between the journalism on channel 4 news and an opinion channel with Dan Wootton and Julia Hartley-Brewer?
Can you?

As long as people are impartial on air, then they can do what they like in their spare time as far as I'm concerned. It's the same as Andrew Neil - I disagree with almost all of his personal views but on the BBC he gave an equal grilling to both sides. However, it remains to be seen whether or not GB News will adopt this approach.

I really think you have the filthy rich all wrong. Alternatively you spelled, “what margins can I make and what is the total addressable market if I employ people on zero hour contracts to throw other people off a cliff for me and could I pay my employees in cliff-throwing discount vouchers instead of money”

You see, Jon Snow, you, Sproose, ad-nauseum, are the real reason this country has a poison Tory government, your rabid support of an unelectable loon enabled the unelectable left to dominate the labour.
Take the blame like good little boys, all of you.

I think the eejits that voted for Boris Johnson's Tory party really need to take some ownership here, Gary. Blaming people who didn't vote Tory rather than blaming those who did is rather odd.

Corbyn was unelectable according to the owners of the right-wing press and their poisonous bile against him succeeded.
The only people responsible for this current lot of Tory fruitcakes are the idiots who voted for them.
And no, I’m not someone who thinks that all Tories are vile - but the current administration are a bunch of hate-filled idiots who only care about their personal status.
