Of course they are entirely to blame, dont be so dramatic, but sadly talksport is based on provoking contentious opinion to stimulate phonecalls and angry debate. Its the jeremy kyle of radio and while the viewing figures remain high, and consequently commercial revenues, do not be surprised if the content remains the same. The only power people have to affect change is to stop listening.

Alan Brazil's listening figures have dropped 25% in 12 months
If you go back a few pages you'll find the link
Perhaps listeners are cottoning on!

Lets really hope so and we might see a change in content and output.

Tony Evans I think. Used to write for The Times.

That's him, really strong Scouse accent, defended Raheem against the other two

This station tries to provoke response from City fans and the last 2 issues broadcast, Raheem and Kun to Chelsea some up how desperate they have become. Each time they try to needle City fans into phoning in they are left holding their own dicks because quite rightly we generally don't fall for it. They keep ramping up the stupidity level in the hope they can create a response.

should politely turn their journalists away at the entrance.

Don't agree with politely they should stamp the buggers foreheads with "Not Wanted at this Address". Then show them the door.

Yes we should but that is not what talksport do and the latest outpourings about Raheem vindicates my decision not to listen.

Im not knocking anyone for listening but just think this will be an issue revisited time and time again with talkshite. Its a wider issue though with the content in the press. I just think its only jo public who can influence change.

Ha ha. I do have an inkling of Murdochs as a person and hence I try to minimise my exposure to its content. You find if you do not listen to talksport/read the sun and the like the less you can be influenced by it.

Talkshite take 99% of all there info from the 99% lies in the papers and spew all out on there radio station! Main problem 80% of the people who read the papers and listen to that station believe it.

Just change content and output with bias and agenda and you could be right
