    Fire alarms went off this morning during Today Programme

    Arsehole Nick Robinson said words to the effect of "maybe we'll move when we see people panicking"

    Comment


      Laura Kuenssberg has confirmed she'll be leaving her role in April.

      Comment


        She seems to be staying at the BBC (initially at least), for "a range of news and current affairs projects across TV, radio and online", so she could still turn up on this thread beyond April.

          Obviously didn't announce it until Dominic Cummings told her she was leaving.

              "If a lot of people believe, say, the moon is made of cheese or that George Soros is behind the COVID outbreak, then who are we to disagree?"

                Presumably the same applies to holocaust denial then.

                  So the Dershowitz interview wasn't a mistake after all.

                    I don't have a problem with inviting on a flat earther provided the interviewer has actually prepped themselves on the usual flat earth bullshit, and has the appropriate questions and responses ready, or they invite on someone else who has.

                    Unfortunately, what they tend to do is invite on someone with appalling or bizarre views, allow them free reign, and said views are broadcast with out being challenged in anyway.

                      I'm very curious to learn what the government doesn't want us to know from watching the BBC.

                        I take it that's about the Chief Cunt in govt.

                          Classic Kuenssberg.

                          This was what the government was/is trying to block, BTW.

                            ....and now confirmed as Andrew Marr's permanent replacement on the Sunday morning sofas, where she'll be grilling a succession of politicians as to whether the issue of the day could, in fact, work to Boris's advantage.

                              So does this mean she's off main reporting duty then?

                              Comment


                                Yeah, they'll probably give that gig to Tom Harwood.

                                  As a non resident, no idea who he is. An improvement?

                                    Oh god no. A ridiculously young, ridiculously right wing "journalist". They won't actually give it to him. They want plausible deniality.

                                      This is how you tell the truth on BBC. Do a live show and get it out before they can stop you

                                        Chris Mason seems to be agenda-free, as far as I can see.

                                          "Balance" yesterday on Five Live was a guy who observed lock down rules so couldn't be with his dad after his dad had a stroke being told it was time to move on by a twat who seemed to think working in a shop throughout the pandemic gave him the authority to tell people to move on.
