bbc is a piece of . They force us to pay a license fee if we have a tv in our houses, therefore even if you don't watch a single programme of theirs, you pay £140ish a year for the 'right' to have 'free' television. They then spend the money on idiot presenters contracts, ethnic networks which encourge disintegration rather than the opposite and the most mindnumbingly boring but self-inflated-egotistical sports commentators ever. |
If their presenters keep getting attacked by livestock they might not have to keep paying them their salaries. |

| This seriously is ridiculous. Can you imagine if Fox News ran with a headline about how Bill O’Reilly was going to miss one show because he slipped on an icy pavement or something? They would be absolutely slaughtered. |

I'm sorry but I have to, HAVE TO reply to this. I'm usually ALWAYS complaining about the news here in the US. IMO, it sucks so bad bc they're always talking about the same senseless . The Gosselin crap was even on CNN, and if an 'event' happens, i'll look at my dad (inside joke on the news) & we both laugh bc we KNOW they're going to rerun that news for at LEAST a month.. Apart from the fact that a random kid in Minnesota saved a puppy, Michelle Obama has roots to slavery (no ), & that Britney Spears has lost 25 lbs, never do I see the same news running as I do on BBC or Euronews.
When I watched Euronews, they RARELY add any 'pop culture' news into their segment, unless it's a death or something else, rarely.. They show the that's going down in Mexico, guerrilla warfare in Africa, & they very well choose to be objective on their news. Never, do they 'crack funny jokes' on air with each other, which I never find funny & I loathe so much for the American news anchors to do. All the celebrity, nonsense news goes straight to their designated programs AFTER the news.. I know, Euronews shows weird videos or segments even in an are called 'No Comment'.. they don't even say anything about it, they just show it to you. I prefer getting an unbiased full view of worldly news (not just americayeah news & more about the 'war' and soldiers) than the I have to view here in the US.
But anyway, that's just my 2 cents, I think it's a matter of preference. As far as the BBC article on the website, I don't really mind, because if you read it it's because you choose to click on it & bother to give a , but I doubt that would hit their news on TV. |
THINK BEFORE YOU POST! WAS THIS A BRAIN SPASM? I TAKE IT YOU DIDN'T HAVE KRYPTON for breakfast?

The main headline on British news is that some no name TV presenter got gored by a bull.

No, it's not.
The main headline is "Dementia drug use 'killing many'"
The presenter story comes up as a brief ten second news flash :o. If you think you have such a great 'global outlook' on your news sites, why look on the BBC then?
And if you do pass by the BBC News site in the future, try searching and looking here for global news....
If you can't find it, I could draw you some instructions in crayon. |

The BBC site has totally different content in different parts of the world. Thanks for trying but again you fail because you don't have the capacity to do anything but fail. |

But you still can't find the global news section? Looks like you do need some crayon instructions after all. |

Haha, yeah I can only imagine the outrage that would ensue if the lofty editorial standards of fox news were ever found wanting. |
