I got a blowjob the day I got the vaccine, report that it’s about as relevant. Fucks sake.

I had to sit in a marquee on my own for 15 minutes afterwards. Maybe the blowjob lady was running behind.

Let's be honest, it's shit, isn't it? A low-rent, you tube opinion piece at the moment. RT remains the only alternative to Sky News*

*when you want to find out what's happening in other parts of the world, which UK channels seem largely no longer interested in other than BLM events in the US.

It is, and you have to balance your knowledge / thoughts against what you are being told, but it's just about the only channel that regularly reports on global events.

Other than BBC World, Al Jazeera, CNN International, euronews, Deutsche Welle, Bloomberg, France24, and a handful of others you really do have no choice but to chance it with the Russian misinformation channel. Some people seem to like it though I guess.

Ah, then I should have said, on freeview - and I forgot AJ (which of course has it's own slant). I do miss some of them since having given up my sky subscription. AJ is good, but does tend to have wandering, repeated clips, so if you switch on and realise you've already seen it, you could there for the next 10 minutes waiting for something new.

You can stream them all for free online I believe. Happy to send you the links if you’re ready to break up with RT

I suppose that's an idea, I could cast them. Online versions sometime seem to be different to live, and are simply cycled repeats? Least that's my experience with Bloomberg.

I don't watch RT much, I was simply using this as an illustration. I think RT's bias is quite obvious, and I wasn't at all championing it.

With this kind of approach to spin, maybe RT is the one for you after all!

Aww come on, I can complain about the Telegraph too! And real irony is moaning incessantly about the Telegraph but then also running your own forum which automatically posts its stories as soon as they publish.

There are no "stories" on here, they are forum threads.

Where's the irony?

Without getting too Alanis Morissette about it, I was talking about this forum you made specially: Local News (No-one seems to use it though, so I assume it was just a passion project of yours)

It posts local news from various sources.

As it does with Podcasts and CCFC news.

Not really a passion project is it?

Well, I thought they had closed the curtains last night on the set and tuned in this morning to see the proper set with the curtains drawn back etc.

Nope, it was the actual set last night. It is turning into must-watch car crash TV.

Honestly your ability at the one liner and laconic put downs has me in stitches. I’ve laughed so much at your obvious talents I’ve now broken a rib and need to go to A and E - I bet you got really excited yesterday when you saw Benjamin Butterworth on the news channel - is he in again tonight?
