This is not news

Radio 4's feedback just ran a long item about how lots and lots of people had taken them to task over the idiotic Tiger Woods broadcast. As always, some news-driven editorial slimeball was on hand to explain what was so good about it. News values and other gobbledygook. I pick up on Feedback a lot; I have never yet heard anyone say, "Yes, in hindsight that was a bit of an error." Just in your face with media bullshit and how they can't possible ever be wrong in estimating what their audience is interested in.

The best bit of that sort of thing for a long time was the 'defence' of the shit London Olympics logo.
