“The trouble with the Jon Snow’s of this world it that they think what
is right for the media is also always right for society, whereas anyone
with a modicum of common sense knows that is not so. It really is time
journalists in general began once again to ask themselves the bigger
question of what is best for the community, rather than just what is
best for my organisation’s circulation/viewing figures.”

I generally ‘dress to the left’, but have found the liberal media’s reaction to this, john snow in particular, to be shameful. It’s one thing having an agenda to appease, quite another to allow your personal opinions to dominate and distort an issue entirely.

Some people can’t accept any good intention if it comes from certain quarters.
