Sky Television News, "Tomorrow's Newspaper Preview", has this evening (Saturday 31st). overstepped the mark, allowing their "reviewers" to descend into the world of personal abuse, lies and insults in their comments about Jeremy Corbyn and anti semitism in the Labour party.
Christina Patterson and Bobby Friedman vied with each other for the distinction of being the most vehement reviewer, and although not agreeing on Jeremy Corbyn's ultimate political fate, both agreed that he is currently a member of or at least closely associated with, more than 400 anti semitic groups on social media and elsewhere, with Patterson even suggesting that some of Corbyn's comments or endorsement of others comments is in breach of "Hate Crime" legislation and as such should be prosecuted accordingly. Friedman, with his legal background did not endorse the more scathing Patterson remarks, but nevertheless added his own malevolent criticisms to the tendentious segment.

We must expect, during this current media frenzy of anti Corbyn, anti Labour hysteria, that there will be news items, media comments and reports which will touch the very margins of propriety, but this evening's Newspaper Preview has exceeded these limits with an outrageous barrage of smear, lies and personal insults. No doubt Sky News will defend this item and both Previewers under the blanket of Free speech and comment, but taken with previous news segments and paper reviews from this station, it is abundantly clear that Sky has thrown off the mask and has now descended to become the television version of the gutter press ranking with the Mail and the Express for sheer vitriolic lies and defamation.

Enough of this hysterical nonsense

http://style.uk.msn.com/royal-baby/how-will-the-royal-baby-look-as-he-grows-up Media generated hysteria. This is too much. For the last 36 hours (thought it seems more like 36 days) there has been wall to wall news coverage, media and television comment and reporting, with Sky News taking first prize for frenzied minute by minute reporting from the Palace, the hospital, from a village somewhere in England, from the studio and anywhere else that Burley, Botting and company could stick a microphone into some obscure "celebrity's" face and ask for yet another banal quote. All this galvanising the mass hysteria of some elements of the public, (who the media would have you believe is the reaction of "the whole world",) with their flag waving, dancing, singing and cheering over what is after all, no more than a woman having a bab...

New Agenda on Sunday is out Sunday, Apr. 28, 2019

https://paper.li/f-1346065353#/ Good morning everyone. Last weeks scare regarding Megan and Harry being sent to live "somewhere in Africa" seems to have been dispelled, at least for the time being. It now seems that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will take up residence in California. Unless they are actually doing some proper work in "The Golden State", I hope that they are taken off the civil list so that we do not have to fund their life choice. The nauseating Daily Mail is at it again. A headline this week, which I will not even bother to reproduce here, screams out in disgusting and repulsive bias without any acknowledgement to the factual basis of their "story". Spewing out their usual smears and embellished distortions about Hamas, the IRA, Hezbollah and the rest, the Mail condemns itself with ample justification, for the closure of a "newspaper," which again abuses 10 fold, the privilege of "freedom of t...

A perverse and rather sinister media obsession to discredit, smear and undermine Jeremy Corbyn

http://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/venezuela-jeremy-corbyn-blasted-for-not-condemning-president-maduro-a3606156.html#commentsDiv Venezuela: Jeremy Corbyn blasted for not condemning socialist President Nicolas Maduro as violent conflict escalates There is a perverse and rather sinister obsesseion with the media and particularly television "interveiwers", in seeking to secure from Jeremy Corbyn a "condemnation" of some person or organisation or event. This time it is connected with events in Venezuela and the actions of President Nicolas Maduro and the bloody crackdown on protests against the result of last weeks poll which inaugurated a constituent assembly . The media "stories" and the interrogation by the television interviewers, are as subtle as a sledgehammer being nothing more than a variation on the "Have you stopped beating your wife yet?" question, which so many repoters use in order for them to make themselves appear very ...
