GB News

You mention popular/popularity 4 or 5 times in that post. When has anything gained a wide audience or support by not being popular? The trick is to peddle something else that is more popular - to say rw stuff / hate is always popular is just a weak excuse for the inability of those selling the alternative.
Blair did it as did Corbyn - so much so that it took his own party to put a stop to it. As long as factions within the left keep stabbing each other in the back it's an open goal for the rw and things like this channel.

Alan Partridge: Right, ok. “Daily Mail”, “The Sun”, “The Express”, “Spectator”, “Fox News”. What does that say to you about hate filled right-wing media?
Tony Hares: There’s too many of them?
Alan Partridge: That’s one way of looking at it. Another way of looking at it is, people like them, let’s make some more of them.
 
Out of interest is it a 24/7 operation or after midnight is it just the Nuremberg Rally on a loop until 7am?
Just had a look / watch. Looks like they just to replays / catchup until whenever their breakfast show starts. I watched the last bit of the show hosted by Dan Wooten (ex Sun). He personally seems not great - the commercial broadcasting sector is very competitive and there is probably a good reason he was available. Modus operandi seems to be as follows:
  • Begin each segment with stated aims - fairness , balance, civility, both sides of the story, derision of woke bias / london-centric media.
  • Introduce topic - general right of centre framing of issue. Think mail/express/sun or Nick Ferrari ect.
  • Populist / white van / pub over a pint viewpoint. Pretty much a fox news / mail perspective smuggled in under the guise of neutrality.
  • In fairness opposite view then presented fairly - albeit by a bloke that looks like a glue-sniffer.
  • Ads - quite a lot
  • Rinse and repeat.
Overall the presenters / content look like a rw angry version of the One Show with union flag based graphics. Having said that, I'll deffo have a look at Alastair Stewart and Andrew Neils stuff as I think they are both very good journo's / interviewers.

cheers - just confirms why I won't sully my eyes with a view and that it will quickly become tiresome for even its target audience - all 24 hr rolling news can become tiresome and repetitive but at least it changes as the news changes over the 24 hr period.
 
Popped on for a few mins this morning, sound all over the place cutting out/echo etc...will try again in a few days.

The only good thing is likely to be Rosie Wright, very pretty lady.
 
"No wonder Labour Party lost the red wall by calling England Fans racist for refusing to support an marxist organisation than wants to defund the police..."
The joy of this new channel is the fact that all the mouth foamers actually
believe the majority of folk think like them.
Thankfully, they don't, and that red wall is now not red.

Not seen it yet, is it worth tuning in to get all the good news about Brexit and how the UK is about to surge ahead?

I watched a bit of the breakfast show and it's a bit strange really. It shouldn't really be called a news channel because there isn't really any news, it's just an opinion channel where they bait discussion on topics but so far they've struggled to generate anything really worth discussing.

It reminds me of TalkSport where they sort of generate discussion by being a bit controversial however so far they've been as controversial as Theresa May running through fields of wheat.

They've banged on all morning about the England players taking the knee but all they've said is that there were a few boos and some cheers too... Current headline on the screen is "England players booed and cheered for controversial gesture", it's really hot stuff!

SITREP - John Barnes was just on saying he supported the players taking the knee or not taking the knee...

I wonder if there's some paint drying somewhere.....
