Unless you’ve been in a cave recently – and who amongst us hadn’t at least considered it over the past ten years? – you’ll be well aware that the BBC is facing something of an existential crisis. After the revelation that Panorama had edited a clip of Donald Trump with the suggested result that people […]
New Netflix drama Death by Lightning is by all accounts very good indeed. Matthew Macfadyen stars as Charles Guiteau, the man who assassinated American president James Garfield (Michael Shannon), in 1881. We mention it not just because Netflix promised us a year’s free subscription if we did (they didn’t) but because it caught the attention […]
Jonathan Dimbleby knows a bit about broadcasting and specifically impartiality in broadcasting during a stellar TV and radio career. Brother of David and son of the late, great Richard Dimbleby, we mention him after he launched an impassioned defence of the BBC in the face of Trump’s £1bn libel threat, and this particular 60 seconds […]

They’ve been […]
Marjorie Taylor Greene is getting attention again. But unlike almost all of her previous headline-making actions, Greene has been popping up in timelines these days for her downright civil behavior. This has caught a lot of news junkies by surprise. They’re used to a government official who screams, shouts, and memes her way into the […]
Over on the platform formerly, and – let’s face it – currently known as Twitter, people have been having a whale of a time taking the piss out of Tommy Robinson – or Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, as it says on his arrest warrants. It began when he spread fake claims that West Ham wouldn’t be allowing […]
We can’t imagine why Donald Trump is obsessed with magnets. Perhaps they’re what he uses to hold his combover in place. Whatever the reason, they’ve featured in several of what he euphemistically calls weaves, but which most people call deluded ramblings.
