Woke watch
"There is a very good section on GB news where the ludicrous idiocies of Wokeness are looked at I thought we would should have one for WHO. I'll start with Baptiste on BBC: In Hungary,an ambassador's family are kidnapped by Islamic terrorists and carry out atrocities. At the end of the last episode Baptiste finds out that it is a false flag operation and conveniently, the real culprits are white supremacists who want to stop all immigration. Coronation Street ITV a gay black footballer is stopped by the police, because he is driving an expensive car. He is pushed to the ground during an altercation, and damages his leg threatening his career. Could have been written by Dawn Butler or a BLM activist."

Re: Woke watch
A rage click is not designed to challenge or form opinion - it is designed to generate interaction and therefore money. It all comes back to economics driving - and cheapening - how news is presented today. Perhaps you could tell me what you think the agenda is behind featuring the testimony of the Capitol cops?

Re: Woke watch
"‘Attempted coup’ Fuck my boots of old. Every time the Tories win an election it kicks off in Westminster. What our police tend to do though is use batons and horses to stop the protestors getting into Downing St. the Capitol police opened the doors and waved them through (apart from the one who shot and killed an unarmed woman on her way in). These hearings are purely to create clips for political adverts for the Democrats next year. With prices for everyday goods and petrol going through the roof, they will need to go full propaganda in order to avoid having to tackle any substantive issues. Fortunately for them, the press will dance to their tune because the US media is almost uniformly Democrat-friendly"

Re: Woke watch
"""attempted coup at the Capitol "" Blimey, I bet they were armed to the teeth, must have been quite a battle. How many weapons were seized? Oh and what happened to the two pipebombers? Oh and what happened with the plot to kidnap Grechen Whitmore?"

Re: Woke watch
I continue to LOVE how snowflake ignores me. It's fucking hilarious and gets to the pompous little fucker he is. Snowflake likes to pretend he's about individual freedoms and the rule of law. Snowflake pretends he doesn't like Trump. So whenever something inconvenient comes up like the attempted coup at the Capitol he will focus on his fave avoidance of all that inconvenience - he talks about the meeja instead. It's very entertaining how ham-fisted he is though.

Re: Woke watch
Fo I would add you don't think the addition of Fox News and CSNBC about the same time in the 90s changed journalism politically. That is a least partially what the economics of new media where based. Click on me because I am telling you what you already believe or rage click on me because I picked a headline that attacks you and your beliefs.

Re: Woke watch
"Fo the Communist 3:48 Fri Jul 30 I hate do it again but it is not a constitutional hearing. That is a hearing on the constitution or examining bills for their constitutionality. This is a Select Committee Hearing that some Republicans have cowardly boycotted. Having been in very much more localized versions of them, sometimes they work very well in examining problems (usually one with little media interest) and sometimes, often when the media is watching, they become political grandstands. This is very important event and issue and that is why I would like it covered with loud and consistent coverage. It is not consistent to me. ""But the forces at work were not strategic decisions based on furthering political or social aims"" I worked it too remember from both sides and that is at best a half truth. Of course there are economic forces but unless you were the most naïve journalist ever there were political and social forces at work."

Capitol Man 3:57 Fri Jul 30 Good man - and hold on to those virtues of yours. They're likely to become a party piece for you in years to come.

Re: Woke watch
"Irons I got out of journalism around 15 years ago precisely because the industry was getting lazier and lazier and getting its news as cheaply as it could. And, yes I was a (miniscule) part of that degeneration. But the forces at work were not strategic decisions based on furthering political or social aims, they were those that I have mentioned. Take it or leave it mate but those were my experiences from the business end. (And despite any political leanings I was still happy to sell stories to the right-wing press of William Hague wearing BLIAR cuff-links). If you want to read up on the decline of news then try Nick Davies' Flat Earth News. A bit outdated but good nevertheless. I accept (and thanks for) your correction re the status of the hearing but the point remains. It is a constitutional hearing into a matter of great importance and as such, is always going to get coverage, again for the reasons given."

Re: Woke watch
Stop talking bollocks sore cock. It’s just hysteria so pudgy middle-aged men can turn that wonderful shade of purple. Time to calm down and pull yourself together. Years ago you’d be disgusted from Tunbridge Wells whining about political correctness gone mad.

Re: Woke watch
Snowflake - you don’t change so you. The coverage of the different protests were different because they were fundamentally different protests in nearly every way.

"What is that saying that goes along the lines of ""All evil needs to flourish is for good men to do nothing""? Well, woke IS evil and I strongly suspect that Capitol and his ilk certainly regard themselves as ""good men""."

"twoleftfeet It is exactly the same push for the normalisation of the perverse and depraved as 1930's German Weimar Republic, which is why they voted in the NSDAP to put a stop to it."

Re: Woke watch
"Fo the Communist 3:18 Fri Jul 30 You seem to try to get me to think you were a very naive, lazy journalist with most of your post. And that is not you, you carefully insert your political views into most posts. Lots of thing are raw and emotive - like the police experience in many protests/riots - if you frame it that way. Is also raw and emotive if you frame it from the protester's point of view. It is the height of naivety or deception to pretend you cannot make things emotive or not on on side or the other. It is not a US government investigation by the way - is the showplace of Congressional hearings, there is no burden of proof. And the government is not a Congressional Committee."
