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

[marty21]

How are they doing at being Great Barrington news, ie spewing awful anti-lockdown stuff in the middle of a bad pandemic?

Don't worry , they are all over that.

OK i just tuned in to hear them wanking about Freedom Day and spewing hilariously vulgar pro-business propaganda. The sound is in sync but there is a different audio issue, terrible echo as the sound of the presenters bounces around the walls of their 'studio', no doubt looking for somewhere to hide in embarrassment.

 

[elbows]

Adverts I have just seen include the government campaign warning EU people they must register by June 30th or lose their rights.

Oh and the open university. Do they do sound engineering courses?

It's bit of a crowded market 24hr news and at the moment there's 1 big story and we're bored of it

Plus GB News is probably the only news channel that needs to operate at a profit.

Ah now the sound is out of sync again and they forgot to unmute the presenters when they came back from the break.

 

[elbows]

Lol they just said 'I must say the reaction to the launch of GB news was 'pretty good', the audience figures 'werent bad'.

 

[Johnny Vodka]

Still having technical issues, but beyond that just dull as fuck really. Andrew O'Neil sitting at his desk with his pink face is probably about the funniest bit. (especially with the sound out of sync).

Yes, but the lectures are all on at 3 in the morning so you need to keep the volume down.

 

[Raheem]

They're rebroadcasting the Andrew Neil monologue yet again, and they haven't even bothered to fix the synching problem.

 

[elbows]

And now some casual sexism and patronising gestures when talking about the football. Oh such rapport between the hosts.

This should summarise that:

Dan Wootton: Enough of lockdown, give us back our freedom, Boris

In years to come we will discover lockdowns have caused far more deaths and devastation than the government has ever admitted

Its much worse than when satellite TV launched or when breakfast tv programmes spent their infancy in perpetual crisis.

Cheers. I have now tuned out, after listening to a presenter going through some very tired and pathetic lines about how much more testing we are doing, so of course there are more cases

 

[Petcha]

Why does it have the facebook, twitter and insta logos in the bottom graphic. It's a tv screen. You can't click on them, or am i missing something?

 

[Orang Utan]

Why are any of you lot watching it ffs?

 

[magneze]

Can't watch it if you have an ad blocker.

I have a fetish for terrible production values.

I see from their websites written news that even these shitheads are blaming the 'freedom day' delay on the governments shit pandemic borders policy/travel restrictions.

 

[pseudonarcissus]

Só we don’t have to…says só in the title.

 

[editor]

The sound is hilariously fucked up. Distorted, buzzing, echoing with voices all shouting all over each other. Utter amateur shit.

I do tend to think "you should have direct experience of something to be able to properly assess it", buuuuuuut.... yeah, just don't think I can be bothered playing their game with this one.

 

[editor]

By God it's bad. The news articles randomly jump all over the place. And on that note... #turnsoff

 

[ItWillNeverWork]

The content doesn't seem as out there as the scaremongers were predicting. Just ten times shitter in the production values than anyone could even imagine

Aye, but also we need to ignore them and deny the oxygen

They are launching a radio station as well , their typical viewer will lap that up.

The worst scenario for them would be big viewing numbers in the first few days followed by a massive drop, so the more people that try it out and then never come back the better.

 

[brogdale]

OMFG it's properly shite, innit?

Liam & Gloria haven't got a fucking clue...sixth formers could do far better than this; hilarious.

The sound quality on the TV broadcast suggests they are aiming for those Radio 4 hold-outs who only listen on longwave
