Is it me? Or has the BBC lost the plot?



Do you get pi**** off with the BBC?

Who the hell is running it these days?
Bet it's a thirty something prat with a sociology degree.

Bring back Moira or even Sylvia Peters (who?).

Yesterday one of the main stories was that more and more people are using their mobiles whilst driving.  I couldn't believe it but the Beeb fuzzed out their faces and number plates on the film.  WHY?  They were breaking the law.  Their faces should have been left visible for the police to track them down and confiscate their phones and their cars.   It's no use telling me that they aren't allowed to identify people they film when only this morning they showed a pensioner (I assume) WITHOUT his face being obscured, queueing up to collect his money at a post office.  Did they ask his permission?
PUBLISH AND BE DAMNED!!

Whilst we are on the subject of pensioners, yet again the BBC jumps onto the stereotype bandwagon by tending to suggest that it is only oldies who have trouble with supermarket unmanned checkouts. 
I know of several hundred pensioners who know more about technology than many folk half their age. 
STOP ASSUMING!!

Another thing.  How many bloody times do we have to be told about Tiger Woods?  I would suggest that every 15 minutes over the last 2 days on BBC Breakfast is overkill.  He's only a bloody golfer.
STOP FUELLING THE "CELEBRITY" CULTURE.

Poor young Carol was out in the garden again, muffled up to the eyballs competing with the weather, traffic, and bin men noises. WHY?  What does being outside contribute to anything.  Has a risk assessment been done?  What are the implications for her catching pneumonia and then suing the Corporation with the consequences that we (the viewers) end up paying out of our license fees.
BRING HER BACK INSIDE

 It's our (exhorbitant) license fee.
START TAKING SOME NOTICE OF YOUR AUDIENCE

Grumpy Old man?  Not a strong enough description.
I'M ANGRY AS HELL
