Tsaedje posted:Labour story immediately top of BBC website (and it should be). No mention at all about the Tory stuff though, hmmm Presumably this is because the BBC can't report on hearsay and lists of questionable veracity for fears of being accused of partisanship. The Guardian aren't even running the Labour story currently.

Agreed but the grief she is getting right now from out side is appalling and trigger happy. Now we have the details we can see this happens pre -our lord and saviour JC and that the new leadership are taking it seriously. This should be a story that shows we are dealing with our past in a healthy way while the Tories play games. Jesus, I need to take a long hard look at myself in the mirror. This is loving awful thinking and everything I hate about party first politics.

Your side is you, everyone else is their own side that sometimes coincides, you can adapt your beliefs or those of others to make the two concurrent if you want to but if you think something's wrong for a good reason you don't have to agree with other people who don't.

Laura Kuenssberg isn't the problem. The problem is the institutional biases of the BBC. She gets a massive amount of poo poo off the back of that and she really shouldn't, because the only things that set her apart from the other arseholes at the BBC is that A) she's a woman, and B) she's not as good at masking those biases.

It doesn't make her less of a poo poo, it just makes her just as much of a poo poo as any of the others. But the shits are allowed to be shits by the system they inhabit and that's what we should direct our energies against, instead of singling out poo poo individuals and giving credibility to the charges they constantly bring against us of being abusive or whatever.

I partly agree, people like Marr should be getting just as much poo poo but they aren't by a long way. Having said that though she was one of the worst offenders when Corbyn was newly elected, and persuading a cabinet minister to resign on air was so far beyond the pail its ridiculous. Not to mention the seemingly intentionally misleading shoot to kill interview.

Last week I was accidentally sent an invitation by an international TV news channel which was meant for Nigel Farage's PA, inviting him to appear to discuss some issues relating to immigration, with a fee. Rather than correct their error, I waited until the show was broadcast, sans Farage, and then sent an email letting them know their error.

True, but oddly in Kuenssberg's case this is particularly toothless because she doesn't seem to read or respond to her mentions, possibly because she mightn't even know how to use twitter.

One of the beautiful things about collectivism is that applying it means you can direct a vast amount of poo poo at a lot of people without a huge expenditure of effort on the part of any individual. What I'm saying is that surely the answer is to dump poo poo on more people's twitter feeds.
