Journalist refuses to lead with Hilton release....

A Place to idle the day away talking about anything you fancy. Expect to find cycling and non cycling topics inside

Hmm - have you seen the BBC news lately (especially the 10pm news)? Why have the newsreaders started talking like that? And as for the content - John Craven's Newsround credited its viewers with far more intelligence and maturity and a much longer attention span.

Luckily there's CW to give us a well-rounded worldview :wink:

Goes without saying that C4 News is head and shoulders above the rest. And Jon Snow is a cyclist (albeit a slightly reckless one). And he travels by train. And Mrs A appears regularly on it (thud).

As for the Beeb, since someone pointed out Huw Edwards' sneer I can't concentrate on anything he says - check it out :shock:

It is quite funny, but also very serious.

Someone gets locked up for violating their parole for Drink Driving and is treated as a hero when they leave prison...What the Heck sort of message is that for kids etc...

The press want to be locked up themselves for being so irresponsible !!
