I now listen to Talk Sport, and whilst the programming is excellent and always an enforces on jokey banter, the best thing about the station is the lack of news and current affairs. I used to listen to BBC Five Live, a mixture of news, current affairs and sport. Sadly it's part of the BBC, an institution that used to be impartial and always my first port of call for news and info.
Nowadays the BBC is so politically correct and biased, I can't stand to either listen or watch any of their news programs. Take the recent and on going political problems going on in Thailand. They seem to be concentrating more on Thaksin Shinawatra still being in proxy control and less about the anti government groups that are actively seeking to suspend democracy and have the rhetoric of Europe in the 1930's. Why they chose this path I haven't a clue.
Same in Ukraine, a mob of right wing opportunists overthrow a democratically government is hailed as gallant heroes and when Russia dares to put their two penneth in, they tow the UK government line and condemn the Russians. Never a mention the number of times that the US and UK have entered different countries in the name of freedom and democracy....
Anyway, this is all behind me, I'm as happy as a pig in shit listening to Talk Sport and let all the important people get on with running the world.
