Apparantly Farage said : "Moyes got Manchester out of Europe. Maybe he'll join UKIP"

Constructed Hypewatch: "Medium Sized Political Party Launches Election Campaign" is not and should not worthy of being the top line in news bulletins.

Party with few elected members close to leading polling for elections should be near the top of the political news. And where are these top-line stories in the news? Last few times i've asked you to back these sort of claims up you have been unable to.

God, i'd hate to see the propaganda you'd produce under the guise of public news.

The last Radio 5 bulletin I heard (3pm) had it as 1st non sport item. Check it if you can be arsed on iplayer. I don't make stuff up. I've no need to imagine that MSM is in a frenzy about this bunch. Yes, it's semi-important that they will do quite well in the Euros, but it's a hype circle. Coverage leads to attention, thus a certain amount of support, thus more attention.

We have no idea what I'd produce, and I've no ambition to.

 

[butchersapron]

RADIO 5 AT 3PM!!!!! FARAGE OVER MUNICH!!!!


I will check iplayer too. I didn't accuse you of making stuff up, but no links to the stories you mentioned were forthcoming.

 

[butchersapron]

We have no idea what I'd produce, and I've no ambition to.

I've an idea of what it would be like - don't mention ukip, don't report on things that i don't like, anyone esle that does is supporting them.

I'm sure you have lots of ideas. Some of them may be quite well founded, others not. But I don't doubt your output would be the most informed and free of all personal prejudice.

I, at least, would want to report on UKIP. Your want to ostrich it and think that your viewers and readers deserve nothing less. Than not talking about that thing that's happening.

 

[ChrisD]

I've decided I need a "no ukip canvassers here" or some other small (and reasonably polite) car sticker sized poster for our front window. I've looked at "hope not hate" website but can't find anything.
Any links welcome..

Apparently Nick Robinson on that BBC asked Farage if his German wife and secretary was taking a 'British' job, and could no British person serve as his secretary?

 

[butchersapron]

His standard reply is that no british woman would be allowed work the hours.

 

[butchersapron]

Come on, let's not be lining up with fucking tory scum like robinson to wack UKIP.

 

[weepiper]

His standard reply is that no british woman would be allowed work the hours.

But it's ok for him to exploit her because she's his chattel wife.

The line is that it their choice. We don't have that choice. That's the line. It's not even true.

You're a liar. Right to the bone. You don't report, you snipe and pick apart. Bit of difference.

What on earth do you think critical political reporting is?

Go away kterk - you are no good to man nor beast like this. Go away.

 

[youngian]

Come on, let's not be lining up with fucking tory scum like robinson to wack UKIP.

Haven't noticed Robinson challenging UKIP's reactionary agenda very often. Looks like he's been getting his orders from Tory central office to stick it to Farage ahead of the elections.

Go away kterk - you are no good to man nor beast like this. Go away.

Nah, sorry. Anyone who gives that party the benefit of the doubt deserves pointing out.

 

[butchersapron]

What?

 

[krtek a houby]

What?

Yeah. You heard me. Now get your minion to "like" it, you fuck.

 

[butchersapron]

Yeah. You heard me. Now get your minion to "like" it, you fuck.

I heard you. I don't know what you're on about. Do you? Can you help me here by answering my question about the post that you writted?

krtek a houby I may not always understand what Butchers is going on about, but nowhere have I seen him giving UKIP 'the benefit of the doubt'

Well, maybe I'm a bit muddled but he seems to want them to be given the oxygen of publicity. My bad if I've got it wrong.

OMG, talking about something that's happening. I want truth in reporting. My truth.

What on earth do you know about truth? You're quite happy to spread/believe lies about posters when it suits. Puuuhleeease.

What on earth has that got to do with the above exchange about reporting? Go away. Stop doing this to yourself.

Aww, so caring. You're always right, aren't you?
