Freedom of speech....blah blah. Public right to know....blah blah.
It gets worse.....
I'm sick and tired of journo's defending their occupation with the same tired old cliche's. Yes, we are doing what we do to protect our way of life and freedom of speech certainly features within that, but I would happily shut the sensationalist journo's up. They appear never happier than when making someone else's life a misery.
Public right to know...horses ar$e. Yes the public should be told about matters that directly effect them or they have paid for (public purse or otherwise). But to try and interview a grieving child.. I'm disgusted.
Think about this......a terrorist bomb goes off 20 miles from you. You may hear it, or you may not. The 24/7 media gets ahold of the story, and it's all you hear about for the next 2 or more days.
Terrorists/Journalists...they are doing the same job. I rank them down there with politicians and estate agents!
These people are endangering lives!
and no, I don't read news papers, their title tends to be misleading.
Spitting Image (remember that?) had the journo's spot on. Pigs in pubs.
