Seriously it's turning more and more into that tacky ultra-american news broadcast crap,

there was a 30 minute segment on britney spears' baldness!,
they had a gaddamn psychologist on!

the following piece was about an elephant going to the dentist!,

what happened to integrity and professionalism in reporting?,
how could it be allowed to be sponsored by 'The Sun' newspaper?,
one of the most trivial british tabloids.
Sky News is the only British news channel, and as such they hold an important social responsibility,
they told me about the budget by having a giant badly animated computerised wheel of fortune style wheel stopping at important economical issues.
they told me about global warming also with irrelevant computer graphics.

lame game show host presentation distracing from and taking time from actual news.

'in today's news: new steps towards the denuclearisation of Iran ........'

'but first Tim, Here's a dog on a skateboard!'

..........ok rant over
but wtf?

I don't watch the news over here, i just read it either in the paper or online, because then i can choose what i want to know about.

I do not feel that britney spears being bald is important.

Sky news is still the most prominent since its the most widely available.

channel 4 rocks,
i'd love film 4,

but i think you have to make a human sacrifice to get it over here,

It's owned by Rupert Murdoch right?

If so, then that explains all.
