This is a normal post Doesn't explain why the output is such garbage
or why these "stories" are intermingled with actual news front and centre on the BBC news homepage.

See also the Philip Pullman book plug right there at the moment.

This is a normal post It's amazing how much the BBC dominates and sets the news agenda.
Some actor leaves a kids' TV show (Dr. Who) and somehow that becomes a widely covered national news story. Same deal when some Z lister joins the cast of Eastenders. Load of shite cunts.

This is a normal post True. You never get Coronation Street,
X Factor or Big Brother stories on the front pages.

This is a normal post I see your point
but those stories are almost exclusively the preserve of red tops such as The Sun, Star, Mirror. That Dr. Who story was covered in The Times, Telegraph and Guardian. It was a lead Headline on the Today program every hour.

This is a normal post They all have plenty of stories
speculating about the next Bond. Dr Who is culturally pretty similar.

This is a normal post I thought Rod McKenzie being a patronising drip going for lowest-common-denominator "news" summed it up.
Only surpassed by John Craven.
