🗞 Trust in mainstream media

Its totally relevant as its trust in the Russian state and their media.

Mainstream media baz. Does this mean you think RT is a mainstream news channel?

RT is mainstream but it isn’t news, its a viewpoint of the news, they’re not investigative or follow a story, they undermine, soil and deviate from the truth, question more? Question why Russia isn’t democracy, why it spends far more than it should on its military when millions are in poverty, why allow anti gay laws to be introduced?
Russia is going backward not forward in its human rights.

Ok Baz, the first half of that post could fit on this thread, but the second half goes off on one…

It has a slightly larger audience than this lot.

And we’ve all watched KTN :roll_eyes:

Have an upvote for proving my earlier point :grin:

Amazing how many good people used to work at the guardian, including the late Jeremy Hardy.
Why were they all fired, but not Luke(caught lying multiple times) Harding?
Reading the list of names is a stark reminder of how the whole narrative is controlled and why Harding still has a job. Shameful.

Absolutely right.

Though the article started off really well but went downhill and got a bit waffly towards the end. IMHO

Disliked liberals as well, good bloke all round.

I am glad this thread was bumped.

On Monday morning, I made the mistake of listening to Radio 4’s Today Programme. After the weekend that Theresa May has just had, along with the denouement of Russiagate, they’d not have time to have a go at Labour.

But oh no, stupid old me, they managed it.

And don’t tell me it’s because they believe in balanced journalism. The same bulletin featured news of a rocket attack from occupied Gaza, context free.

I used to fall asleep / wake up to the dulcet tones of R4 News ‘n’ view (sic)

Mrs C_S has put a stop to it by the simple expedient of telling me to turn it off or she’ll twat me around the head with the clock-Radio. She doesn’t need to tell me…twice. :frowning:

Now that Eddie Mair has jumped ship to LBC, there’s not much quality in terms of news anchoring. Humphreys is the worst. He likes this time of year though; he gets to hector daffodils on the way home from work.

I did used to shout at it a lot tbh

Fair play to you. I can’t listen to any of it, as it’s such biased bollocks.
Where do you think they’ll go next with Corbyn?
There’s growing support for an election and they will not let him run in it. That’s far too scary to contemplate.
I don’t know where else they can take the smear campaign. Has he been cruel to the fruit he makes jam from?

On this subject, more Meuller but Corbyn gets a mention. This puts where we are(both sides of the Atlantic) very well.
The pig and it’s lipstick :joy:
