The news on tv

We watch Talk tv rather than the BBC now. Julia Hartley-Brewer is so straight talking and makes me smile whereas Naga Munchetty really annoys me. Charlie and Naga are so rude and aggressive whereas Julia's interviewees all seem to be amused even when she is challenging them.

I only watch GB news now, seems less biased than most.

Me too Jacq, but I switch button up to Talk TV when the adverts come on.
Before klondike gets a dig in, I don't watch it live, there's a delay
Al Jazeera is a good channel too although anti Israel/pro Palestine which is to be expected.

There always is. Lightspeed ain't infinite after all.
I just got so fed up with the news that all I watch now is Farage on catchup before I get up in the morning. Lie in today

I remember his faked pictures trying to stir things up for our squaddies. He'd need to find somebody other than me to douse the flames should he ever self combust. Plus he should have done jail time along with his City Slickers for effectively defrauding the readers of his rag.

Another close shave with the law

He should go into politics. He has the right background.

I didn't know of these things..
I just enjoyed his 'Say it as it is. ' attitude..

klondike · July 07, 2022, 08:01:45 PM

I did which is why I have no idea what his TV persona may be because I won't watch him.

I know how you feel.. I don't like David Walliams .. Or that chef who wants us all to eat well and dishes up recipes that cost a bomb.. and make us fat..
