The British Media


Last month me and my dad were watching archive footage of old news reports from the 80s, to do with the Falklands War and the Beeb was much more hard hitting back then, with the way they presented the news, just straight facts.

Not the current filler friendly howyadoing crap which has infected the Six O'Clock News. There is so much waffle in news reports these days and such inane questions.

Since Hutton BBC News Reporting is not as good as it was, even Sky News, owned by the Dirty Digger and a sister channel to Fox News has had better reporting on Iraq.

I think 24 hr rolling news has destroyed good quality journalism. Chasing ratings and reporters egos being inflated. To any journalists out there, your job is to report the news, not become the news!
