You think I'm winging it? Wow, amazing deductive reasoning there odon... In regards to you asking about them in the first place. As for the rest, if you don't see the commercial pressures that are put on them, then you don't see them... I guess there isn't any more to say about it.
I know. You did your best, though...in the circumstances. I do see the commercial pressures put on the commercial arm of the BBC. It just doesn't filter down to the news output.
I want to know when in the hell it became ok to broadcast news with the anchors opinions? I really could care less which one you watch but both of them suck in their own ways. I say bring back uncle Walt! But he has done his time in the chair and last I heard about him he was going to marry Carly Simons sis and sail round the world!! Bring back some tv news with a real anchor!!
Fox is easily worse, although I will admit their show Redeye is pretty funny sometimes. CNN has Larry King, that's actually pretty cool in my opinion. I'm not much of a tv news watcher but CNN is alright to me and seems to cover just as much social happenings as political.
