I just got in, put the telly on to see what's happening about the Mr
Moat story. Obviously I turned to the BBC as a good British citizen.
What I saw whas a recorded programme about parliament. Put Sky on,
live coverage, people on the ground, instant updates.

I'm so sad.

You will probably find the sky folk are ex bbc who got disillusioned or made
redundant.

It is rather sad you find a man hunt so important you have to watch it
happening.

When working and traveling, I used to read the daily papers given free
on the train - but they all were daily mail papers and made me sick,

Then when trying to get to sleep, I used to doze off to London's LBC
listener call-in show - but the presenters were daily mail readers and
made me sick,

Then when watching television, I used to watch the news headlines - but
the stories were all daily mail incited government madness and that made
me sick.


Sorry, I prefer instead looking at pictures of nice fluffy animals ...

I've got an idea. Bring back public hangings and charge the public to view
them. Would sort out the economy in short order.

Yes, and a good public stoning or two would probably excite people -
something different. Iran definitely leads the way in popular culture.

The Sky news reporters had very little information to give. They kept
repeating themselves. The BBC recognised that there were other things
happening in the world.

There was one Sky man who was in a building on the opposite side of the
river from the fugitive. He said that he no longer had a view of the
scene because a row of trees had moved! I still haven't worked out what
he actually meant.

I didn't want to watch a manhunt live, I wanted a news update.

This was at the moment when it was all happening with Mr Moat. It's a
news story of great interest and for the BBC to run a recorded
parliamentary debate at that moment was ridiculous.
