lol @ that clip..Sky clearly knew what the guy's opinion would be. Sensationalist press by a very very poor news channel.



You like having a poke at Sky and the Daily Mail don't you?   BBC/Guardian fan by any chance?

Silly to compare the Mail with the Guardian. The Guardian is a (reasonably) serious newspaper. The Mail would be more accurately compared to The Mirror and The Guardian more realistically to The Times imo.

I love having a poke at sensationalists and racists, yes. Sky News and especially Kay Burley are ridiculously bad. (BBC News is shit as well TBH.)

The Daily Mail is for racists by racists.

Not a big fan of BBC news either TBH but it's a lot less sensationalist than Sky news is. As a whole I think that 24 hour rolling news has brought nothing to reporting and has actually just dragged reporting standards down to tabloid level.

I don't mind the Guardian too much (Obv ist's a MUCH better paper than the Daily Mail and everyone who disagrees is an idiot), just don't like the tree huggers that read it. If I still had time to read a hardcopy newspaper I would definitely more a Telegraph person.

Amazingly I'm not a lefty. I just don't like racists and I think that Britain would be a better place if more people in the UK would learn to read newspapers rather than just buy them because they have plenty pictures in them.

Not so sure. I would have to see the exact stats but i am pretty sure that the amount of non working single mothers (that is discounting the non working parents living as a couple) will outweigh the single mothers with one or two jobs. Certainly in the areas reported in London. I think you are giving too much credit to the previous generation. But one thing i do agree is that there is a distinct lack of decent role models, but these have to come from people they can relate to and closer to home.

According to stats from gingerbread 56.7% of single parents work and this rises to 71% of single parents with kids over 12 which is about the same rate as for mothers that are a part of a couple.  They are significantly poorer though with an average income of about £400 for the hosuehold against £600 or so for couple families with one worker which makes sense as single mothers are less likely to be able to pursue a good career due to childcare restrictions etc.

I could not agree more with this statement if it came with a topless Kelly Brook.

BBC News is hamstrung by having to do things like check facts and sources properly - Sky News is far more able to report rumours and gossip as news, which always makes the BBC look as if they're being slow, which is not great for a rolling news channel.

Yea thats why I said certainly within the areas in London. Will have a look if i can find any specific figures for them areas and get back to you.

What an incredibly stupid thing to post.  Sky News, Kay Burley and journalists of The Daily Mail are all racists.  I see.

Perhaps you could log onto Skynews/DailyMail websites for today and give us an example of this racism?  Or perhaps a racist quote from Kay Burley?

WTF?  Are you suggesting that this country's libel laws are different depending on whether it relates to Sky or BBC?

lol, surely you can read 1 sentence? I said, as you quoted,
Quote

I called Kay Burley and Sky News sensationalist.
Surely calling Kay Burley sensationalist is not disputable?

Sigh, this is what you get when you buy newspapers because they have pictures rather than words in them.

Sky is an independent organisation and not hamstrung by politicians and a board that hammers down down everytime they are considered to be giving un balanced views.

Boldie are you thick as cheap mince?  Perhaps you could learn some basic sentence construction before you get abusive.

Consider the following:

"I love having a poke at overrated players and cheats, yes.  Man Utd and especially Wayne Rooney are ridiculously bad."

Is Wayne Rooney overrated or a cheat from this sentence?  He is both.

Try to engage your brain before you post.

Engaging brains before posting is probably a good idea all round, lest things stray into flaming and, thus, deletions.
