I think I am going to stop reading the news

I had a few minutes to kill, so I headed for the BBC news webpage.

In those short few minutes I read about a woman who concealed her pregnancy, then "didnt realise she was having the baby" until she saw a foot sticking out of the toilet, she hid the body.

Another woman whos boyfriend ran her over once breaking her legs, then reversed the car over her head.

About a bbc reporter who was pressured into going on a dangerous assingment by her collegues and got shot.

So I thought, I'll check out the local news, that wont be as bad, only to read about a family whos house was flooded last year, had the caravan they were living in stolen while they were out.

No wonder they say no news is good news
 
The worst bit is their new ident plugging the availability of news on their website & mobile. They shows a string of historical news items like the fall of the Berlin Wall, the release of Nelson Mandela. I guess that's OK, but then following up with 9-11 & the Tsunami and saying 'where were you when the news broke?'.

It's almost as if they engineered those events just to show the world what a fucking amazing news service the BBC has. All anyone has to do is watch the Saturday morning show to know what a pile of shit that is. The same fucking stories on a look at least 10 times. The same studio guests interviewed about the same fucking thing twice, asked the same fucking questions each time, and the constant plugging of whatever shitty 'phone up to vote for a celebrity' bullshit they have on at the time.

The news tells itself, morons.
 
BBC Breakfast is awful as well. The presenters are dull as ditch water, completely gormless and don't do any research. There's a video on Youtube where they interviewed Brent Spiner and claimed that Data was prone to inappropriate laughter.
 
Did you see that presenter have a row with that obnoxious little fuck, Bill Oddie? He's a jumped up misogynistic little bastard. Presenter shouted at him to listen. I liked him so much as a nipper when he was in The Goodies.

Yeah, I remember it was repeated on something later. I saw Bill Oddie not so long ago and he seemed generally bewildered.
 
Its probably all those japanese speeding fines he keeps getting
 
Oh, and they are also killing Bruce Wayne, now I cant even read the entertainment news
 
Remeber when Odie was on Buzzcocks and he tried to act all young and wacky but just looked like a mentally ill 68 year old?

What were expecting the news to be? Sunshine, rainbows and unicorns?

Its the stories violence, murder, sex, and tragedies that get people to tune in?
People come home from work and say " I had a really bad day!" "Life sucks!", watch the news and then are all like "Maybe my life ain't so bad."
 
I'm not sure it's all voyeurism.
 
Other people's lives sucking doesn't actually make me feel better.

Of course not. There's also sports and weather. Here's all the games you missed watching while at work and btw here's the weather for people who live in houses without windows.
 
They also tell you what the weather will be like in a few hours, you know, for people who actually leave the house

Oh yeah and traffic reports. The traffic is really backed up out there due to some major accidents. Looks like those of you going to work this morning have a really shitty drive ahead of you. Have a nice day!

He'll be back. Everyone's died and returned in the DCU, it's almost a prerequisite for JLA membership.
 
They should replace Batman with a space bat.
 
Or a giant walking cricket bat
 
Or Adam West in his Family Guy character mode.
