It's very bizarre. I can only imagine it's part of the Beeb's obsession with 'reaching people where they are' (in other words, putting out tabloid crap).

Ah well. At least you read most of my post. Can’t please everyone, I guess. ☺️

Someone on the forums said this in response to the Kim Kardashian verdict leading last night's BBC News at Ten:

New low, top story on News At Ten. Kim Kardashian hardly anyone in the UK cares about her at all

I think most would agree leading the Ten with that is questionable at best. But not ...

There are one or two people on there who do nothing but big up Channel 5 and it really winds me up. I don't understand how anyone can act so fanatically over a not-very-good TV channel.

That whole BBC News thread is a binfire. Just constant bickering between BBC bashers and BBC bootlickers. There's no place for rational discussion and this three-day-long pissing match over that Traitors liveblog is beyond pathetic. And amongst all that everyone seems to have missed the news about ...

I can understand why some threads like the GB News ones are proactively moderated, but the big problem with that is when there's something to talk about and posts are taking many hours to be moderated.
