Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
Has he been treated unfairly?
There were 0 bricks flying towards his dumbass dome
Channel 5’s producers and talent are the most Tory of all our main five channels here in the UK by a wide margin. Daily programming is a mix of:
- Fuck the poor lol
- What if a rich person swapped lives with a poor person and it turns out they’re just misunderstood (we’ll breeze past explaining any exploitation involved in obtaining their wealth)
- Oh those poor landlords having to evict tenants
- Everybody on welfare is a fraud
- Talking heads brown nosing the royals
- Remember your childhood? Let’s get some talking heads to talk about the toys, chocolates, and music from when those immigrants weren’t around
- Here’s why immigrants are taking all the jobs and draining the welfare system
- Let’s follow cops testing out their new drones and endangering the public with pointless high speed chases through built up areas and arresting people for being out at night
- Isn’t the south just lovely and white? You’ll get killed if you ever go north.
- Your neighbours are out to kill you
- Are we being too hard on the smol bean government who killed people during lockdown?
Oh Vine has wanked over the desire to see coppers go all Sweeney again. He's said it on his show several times.
boris should be a gender neutral outdoor public toilet
Well he's leaked shit everywhere.
As a reward for helping kill 500,000 Brits, UK news talk show keeps trying to save man's career.
I cannot articulate how visceral my hatred for Jeremy Vine is. I was subjected to his radio 2 program for years in my old job. He is the epitome of the enlightened centrist who might as well be a fascist with all the white washing he does for the far right.
I would happily watch him get eaten by rats.
Same here. Plus he ran a bit this morning after all about how expensive BBC programs are and how they should do cuts... he makes £500k a year off the for a bleedin radio show. Doesnt even play much music.
Has Boris Johnson been unfairly treated?

Took me a while to find it..
Sport of all the papers proves your point best.
