Not just language
The other day, on the main top o' the hour news, was an item on two Aussies caught by a cop car while base-lining or something - jumping off an office block with a parachute.

Excuse me, but WHAT THE FUCK was that doing on a proper news bulletin?????

Same with the bloody McCartney/Mills soap opera, this is not news, it is gossip. And while I'm here, why the flip do we have to have every single blow-by-blow account of the race to become the Democrat nomination for an election still SIX MONTHS away????

I bet there are elections in other countries, like, say, Brazil, that we never hear about. Why can't R4 do the World Service headlines at least three times a day, say, 7am, 6pm and 10pm?

I'd write in if I thought.....
