Exactly. Sadly there is a market for this right wing shouty shite, this channel couldn't get to it. He will. Times Radio will soon be UK NewsNo, he would be picking-up a basically 'bankrupt' business on the cheap, picking up the valuable transmission slots, very limited on Freeview not so much via satellite, plus the channel numbers (very limited on Sky, not so much on Freesat & Virgin) across all the platforms, there is probably some bits of infrastructure that could be used with their own studios.
He downgraded his plans for 'News UK', because of GB News launching, taking that out, changes the picture completely, let's not forget what he did with the so-called 'merger' of Sky TV & BSB back in the day, which was basically a take-over.
He's still planning to launch a 'News UK' TV service on streaming platforms, there're clear benefits to putting that on broadcast platforms for a few hours each evening. It would be run professionally and easily pick-up GBN viewers & more, he has his own sales house with well connected contacts in the advertising agencies, so wouldn't need Sky Media to sell the advertising & take commission.

They had Biggins on complaining about ' The woke lot', apparently he thinks Benny hill was cool and we should have more like it.GB News are asking the Government to recommend everyone has at least three portions of fish and chips per day and that Carry On films are one BBC and ITV every evening.
Maybe. It could be that the failure of GBN is just a nul hypothesis along the way to something that could actually matter. But I also wonder if it's just disproving the idea that a gammon news channel is possible without heavy subsidy.Exactly.

I really don't think anyone is thinking of the UK over here atmThis may well happen. And then the UK will tear itself apart, like never before. Maybe. Maybe not. It's not very together, at the best of times. Which might be a good thing. Or not.
Obviously it isn't As well as I do you know Murdoch will make it work, as ever the cunt has played his hand wellMaybe.

I'm actually watching it now, and it is pretty funny. Just had Michelle Dewberry waffling for about a minute about how she was about to say good morning when it was actually the evening. Then she started complaining that she wasn't being given the news headlines in her teleprompter even though she had been dropping hints. Headlines after the adverts she said, after an apparent thumbs up from someone. Then the ad break, which lasted about ten seconds with no actual adverts. Then an apology from Michelle that there wouldn't be any news headlines.A mate of mine was a bit disappointed at the travails of the channel when I mentioned it at the pub earlier.
He and his son watch it quite a lot.
They call it Gammon News and think it’s hilarious.
I quite liked how she tried to explain to the doctor's 3yr old daughter she was talking to daddy about an NHS app .I'm actually watching it now, and it is pretty funny.

That's probably less than three minutes' content at random. It's quite a special channel.

Yeah. That was about a minute later. It's a constant stream of amateurism that's like a satire of The Day Today.I quite liked how she tried to explain to the doctor's 3yr old daughter she was talking to daddy about an NHS app .
When it first aired, Ken Tucker of Entertainment Weekly gave it a positive B+ review, writing, "On the Air is a one-joke sitcom that makes explicit the message that... TV is stupid, and people will watch anything. Its undisguised contempt is pretty enthralling."
I can't even slag it off because I refuse to watch it. Not the Carry On's, Babs baps are the cakes of feminine joy.I’d go back to school for that
Michelle Dewberry, wasn't she part of the hairy bollock they call Alan Sugar's outfit? No disrespect to bollocks.Should false eyelashes be allowed in school.
"Eleven, twelve, thirteen. Definitely not. Fourteen, it should be encouraged" says mum.
"Chelsea, do you feel you need false lashes?" asks Michelle.
"It's different for different people. I feel like they give me confidence."
Long pause. This is like Grundy if the Sex Pistols had answered a question sensibly.
She was, I believe, a pube on the bollock.Michelle Dewberry, wasn't she part of the hairy bollock they call Alan Sugar's outfit?
Even crabs take the knee when threatened. No implicated comparison between crabs having lots of knees and Michelle Dewberry on her knees implied.She was, I believe, a pube on the bollock.
Michelle to Isabelle Oakeshott.
"Sorry, I can't really say your name. It's because Os sound a bit weird in my accent. So that's why I haven't said it."
"backshot" likely more familiar in her vernacular vocab-bub-blub-blub thank-you Sir Sugar I'll get the tissues. I can say that because I don't care.
I'm sure Ms Dewberry never gobbled Alan The Overgrown Hairy Bollock any sexual favours at all on the path to reach the giddy heights of her "fame".
And of course reducing a woman to being a simple instrument of service would be something totally against right wing culture. Let's start with abortion law... bring the boss some fresh Kleenex re-badged as Amstrad
I have no idea. I'm channeling Sir Alan Sugar. Telepathically. #craftywankWtf is this shit?
Looks like they poached McAndrew temporarily from Euronews, maybe an old friend of Neil. Seems to me McAndrew has fled the nest and taken his key staff with him.It's John McAndrew, the channel’s director of programming, that has gone, the Chief Executive is Angelos Frangopoulos, they haven't quit.
Yet.
