Another BBC gem. : Diane Abbott on Desert Island Discs
I must say that, for a mere review of a light entertainment show, it rather caused my eyebrow to crank at all it inferred.
'Should the BBC have surrendered editorial control in this way? It is paid for by us, not the castaways. If the whole programme is at stake, perhaps so, but should not listeners be told about it?'
I am beginning to seriously wonder what exactly is going on with what we do or do not get told about, with what we most certainly do still have to pay for.
I guess it could have been worse. Imagine if money, AND Robbie Williams was involved. Of course, has I phrased that 'money OR Robbie Williams', no imagination would be required.

I believe in freedom of speech. But I also don't like bullies on blogs, even verbal ones, as they can drive away those with something valid to say... or offer.
Subjective is fine, but well argued and substantiated is even better. Calm and polite tops. Anything that crosses my personal line will not go up. There may be reasons given, but not guaranteed.
I'm not too keen on 'Anon' as a handle (and the content usually explains why), so if that's what you opt for it may not make it. Sorry.
