´óÏó´«Ã½

Breakfast's agenda is too soft? Let me put it this way. 7.55am this morning:

Sky News had a five minute interview with the new home secretary.

Breakfast News had a piece on buying gifts for school teachers.

Middle class London-set tosh.

I rest my case, sort it out, or at least put a decent Breakfast news program on one of the many other channels of yours I am forced to fund.

Not much point watching the prog to hear the same tired defence of what has become little better than GMTV.

I am curious to know why, when there are several very competent and experienced news correspondents based with ´óÏó´«Ã½ Scotland in Glasgow, the ´óÏó´«Ã½ felt it a justifiable use of the licence fee to send a squad of London-based news correspondents on the first sleeper to Glasgow to cover the attack at Glasgow Airport on Saturday 30 June?

Surely ´óÏó´«Ã½ London has more faith in the Scottish news correspondents than that? Or maybe they were worried that people watching outside Scotland would need subtitles?

Once again I am dismayed by the news coverage from the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Breakfast Programme. I had to turn to France 24 to find out that 9 Spanish tourists had be killed by a suicide bomber in the Yemen.
When I went to the ´óÏó´«Ã½ news website it was listed far down on the page.
In my opinion the ´óÏó´«Ã½ have given up their once unassailable position as the premier news organisation. Instead they fill their program with trivia and drivel.

I am aghast that I have had to sit through what can only be described as an extended advert for the new Harry Potter film on Breakfast. What was the point in an interlaced interview of Imelda Staunton gushing on about her fellow luvvies and the trailer currently being shown on commercial television?
