The fash will have their wank socks on the arm of the chair, their lube on the other arm, they will do a few warm up seig heils and settle in for Nige's reports from the cliffs of Dover on the zillions of immigrants clinging to driftwood in an attempt to come here and take their jobs and wives, burn their flags, ban xmas and make their roast beef halal. They will cheer heartily as people drown, they will laugh as kids struggle to stay afloat.

Wank 2 will be that Brewer womans hour of hate against transgendered lollipop people and the danger they pose to the high streets of Tonbridge Wells.

Wank 3 will be statue of the week, a report by alt right cretin Alex Belfield waxing lyrical over how great it was to be slaves to the great men like Cecil Rhodes.

All the while the Billionaire funders of the nonsense will be in their counting houses laughing maniacally at their devious plan to further dilute working class solidarity so that their hegemony can remain intact.

I was trying to explain to a mate of mine the other night, that this channel is the culmination of the defund the BBC, anti - woke, pro capitalist, pro free speech stuff, anti immigrant propaganda that has been spewed from Tufton Street think tanks for the last 20 years.

His reply was yeah but Corbyn. That is how successfully he has been groomed. And essentially that is what has happened. It has been happening since Reagan deregulated TV in the USA during his Presidency which allowed the rise of Fox News. It has just been copied here by the our own version of American Neo-Cons.

I have no problem with new news stations, i do think people should think about the issues that having a propaganda station brings though.

This comes down to one basic premise, when I was a kid i was taught how to answer a question, then I was taught to question the answer. Now kids are only taught to answer the question, that leaves people open to propaganda because they have not learnt the necessary skills to question it and that is dangerous for democracy.

I know I will be able to watch this channel and laugh at it, others may not. That should concern you.

Don’t forget the main feature.

Harry And Meghan.
 
A story for GeeBeeBee'sNews to get stuck into though I can guess what their version will be

 
The reporters have obviously never been near Didsbury or indeed Manchester in their lives.

Junk like the Mail needs reclassifying as a comic

The Daily Mail has a long history of promoting authoritarianism, blatant racism and despising the working class.

Not the first time they have published xenophobic fantasies to stir moral panic.


 
In todays news, Old man no longer in touch with society gets grumpy due to no longer being in touch with society.
 
The vast number of British people who feel underserved and unheard” by existing television news channels.

Think we all know what that means.

From what I have seen of them they sit with their backs to the screen booing their own football team .....
 
Wouldn't surprise me if he's got duel citizenship so when the shit really hits the fan he can spout his BS across the channel whilst being wilfully blind to the consequences of his actions.

We could revoke his U.K. citizenship then a la Begum.

I think that's a Crown prerogative? To invoke that I think he'd have to do something more than chair a news channel that we are free to not watch.
I'm seeing an all too familiar pattern of frame the thing as racist / rw / foolish, by extension those involved and those attracted to it too, in the naive hope that it will cease to be. Even if it is all these things and more it should be allowed to succeed or fail on its own merits. I watch quite a bit of RT where the state / sponsor influence is every bit as marked as Fox but people seem happy to let that rub along with no need for a BM thread of anticipatory outrage. I'm actually more concerned with the 'liberal' view that the general populace should not be trusted to make its own mind up. Unless we want to suppress free choice then sometimes we have to accept people might not make the choice we want or like - electing Hamas, the Muslim brotherhood, tory party, trump or voting brexit to name but a few instances of free choice and democracy 'going wrong'.
I prefer the point made by @Rascal a few posts back - we need to make sure our population can read and make informed judgements, not try to suppress, ban, or mock that which we dislike. Radicalisation happens when people are exposed to one viewpoint to the exclusion of all others - it doesn't particularly make a difference what that view is.

It was a throw away remark. A quip.

If people want to watch the channel, they will. There isn’t much I can do about it. I’ll probably tune in to see what their rhetoric is going to be and make a judgement call on whether it’s worth my time.

I think it’ll be more populist than racist. The latter is far more likely to be implied, rather than overt.

It‘ll pitch all sorts of different groups against each other in all likelihood.

Yes, clearly designed to latch onto the existential crisis that currently exists around notions of Britishness/Englishness/UK/Europe. Populist stuff is by definition popular, but not necessarily long lived - look at Farage since he lost his cause celebre by winning - the last thing any single issue populist ever actually wants.
