Just discovered all the 24 news channels next to BBC news24. There's a french one, a russian one, a japanese one, al jazeera and (fuck me!) fox news. Being an uber-geek, i like to watch these for the different perspective. Except for fox news, which is more car-crash voyeurism.
Anyway, the breaking news was that the coalition government in the netherlands had collapsed due to an argument about how long dutch troops were gonna be in afganistan for (thats right folks, its not just the brits in afganistan, not that you'd know for the media reports).
This was quite important news so i scanned the uk papers for their take on it. The result... f all, just tiger woods and ashley cole.
