GB News: a thread so you never have to watch it

[two sheds]

Assuming I don't want to stumble on it by accident.

Where exactly should I not be looking so as not to be able to see this output?

I used that tactic very successfully to score when I moved to a new city once.

 

[Chilli.s]

Its shockingly bad

 

[cupid_stunt]

Andrew Neil came across as fairly sane, and he was clearly pissed off over the hand-over to Dan Wotton, who's clearly off his fucking head.

Neil must be wondering how the hell they employed this guy, and gave him a platform to piss on everyone.

Turned it on, saw Dan Wootton (sp.) moaning about the London Media Elite, from his London news studio/bedsit with the lights turned off, and turned it off again.

 

[existentialist]

I went and had a watch, saw some adverts, and I've just bought a stairlift.

 

[cupid_stunt]

I forecast there will be people walking away from this and/or getting sacked off over the next few days/weeks.

 

[CNT36]

Well you haven't been exaggerating about the sound.
Also this "Freedom day" bollocks can fuck off.

I couldn't help myself. I had a look. I'm not sure which one out of the lot is the most repulsive I've seen today. I think it might be Wooton. It's a tight call though. There's a lot of choice. It's either him or Simon McCoy's sinister sidekick.

 

[Supine]

Watching now. It really is bad

Shit sound
Cunt presenter
Weather forecaster looks like a serial killer
Poor set design

I give it six months.

 

[cupid_stunt]

At least tonight, all three panellists are against the shaved ape, although that doesn't stop him shouting over them & trying to shut them down.

 

[steveo87]

What's the weird frame around the screen about?

 

[T & P]

You’re really being a bit silly here Orang Utan. I doubt that anyone here would contest that advertising works in general. But given that nobody would be able to register and record what an individual might be watching on TV, there is next to absolute fuck all gain for GB News if a handful of Urbanites, all of whom clearly despise its very existence, check it out to report here how shit it is.

In fact I’d argue the opposite is true. If you see a brand associated with something you despise, you are less likely to buy that product, not more likely.

This is why Celtic and Rangers, whose fans hate the other side with passion, have to share the same sponsor. Because if, say, Guinness sponsored just the Celtic shirts, the other half of Glasgow would pretty much stop drinking it. And vice versa.

I’m not going to bother checking if you have Twitter, but if you did and happened to retweet posts of those you despise, from Farage to Katie Hopkins to anyone in between, you’d be doing far more damage (even if still pretty insignificant) than anyone who merely checks a TV station and reports on a message board it’s fucking shit.

Also, camera is over here, Dan.

It sounds like you've not heard of the legendary and foolproof SCWP system for media success

Gloria Del Piero cannot last - co host Liam Halligan ( who is no fool when on RT etc ) just looked mortified

Wooton's a farce, + the tech issues have been hilarious

 

[marty21]

When is the GBnews relaunch?

 

[brogdale]

Onto the Monkey Tennis bit...

Who?

 

[PR1Berske]

It's not even like "The Day Today". This is closer to "KYTV"

 

[brogdale]

Who?

Reckons that people try to him d-down?

 

[Zapp Brannigan]

Daltrey's heating has packed in. Dude looks awful c-c-c-cold

 

[elbows]

Yeah I just tuned in and listened to Roger fucking Daltrey talking shit about the pandemic for a few seconds, and quickly hit my limit of how much I was prepared to watch of this channel. I've seen enough.

I will be happy to see photos or read about more of their output on this thread, but I dont think I want to hear another second of their stuff for myself, nor do I seem keen to see those grim faces animated.

 

[Johnny Vodka]

It's past Al Jazeera, so you can't stumble on it accidentally. Or, if you do, keep schtum because it means you found it on your way to Babestation.

These aren't the sort of tits I was looking for.

 

[kenny g]

They need to get some fluffers and marching powder into that studio's green room pronto and start to get things a bit more focused. Maybe bring Gareth Icke in to add some more gravitas.

Thought having Roger Daltry on without him doing karaoke battle with Andrew Neal was a wasted opportunity.

Perhaps if they introduce a studio cat/ tiger cub it might add a bit of a talking point when the politics gets heavy?

Babe station in this day and age must cater for those who have masturbated themselves into such wrecks they can't even operate a keyboard or phone. The milked dry contingent who just can't get enough and need to come back for more.

Watching a full grown tiger be let in the studio would be more entertaining. Especially if it's peckish.

 

[equationgirl]

Good name for a pub though that. It's on my list now, along with "The Incel Arms*" and "Crown and Pronouns".

* strong right arms obv

My favourite fake pub name is 'The Slightly Askew Tambourine' from a uni friend who was into D&D in the 90s.

 

[T & P]

Clearly I was wrong all along, but I had always been under the impression that TV news broadcast channels were subject to far closer guidelines regarding balanced content than in the likes of the US. Which allegedly had frustrated Rupert Murdoch throughout his long ownership of Sky News, as he was not allowed to impose the kind of bias as is prevalent on Fox News. And which recently drove him to sell it off, whilst still keeping his newspaper empire because he’s allowed to be as biased and unfair as he pleases.

So I reckon he must be feeling like a right cunt right now about a bunch of amateur nobodies being allowed to lunch a news channel as biased as his own Fox channel in the US. How the fuck did this come to be? Is it because Sky News is perceived as too big and influential to be allowed to have a blatantly biased agenda?

 

[not a trot]

I forecast there will be people walking away from this and/or getting sacked off over the next few days/weeks.

Ratings will plummet, Roland Rat will be brought in to try and save it. Closed down by Christmas.
