(PS: We didn't vote for a Hung Parliament, it's impossible to vote for a hung parliament. It's not on the ballot paper. We exercised our democratic right to vote for a party we thought would be best which ended up in a hung parliament)

Reporter not being a reporter, trying to make a name for themselves hopefully they can get an anchor position.

My conspiracy side see's a liberal media outlet bashing conservative protests to protect a liberal meeting, and when liberals protest anything, they are given titles of champions of free speech, and peacefully expressing their outrage(Although lib protests have a tendency to get violent here in the US)

FWIW, i'm pretty much anti-protest anyways, so neither side wins for me here.

Oh thats Kay Burley btw, she is already an anchor for Sky News. She's basically the top dog and has been for a while.
But was that journalism? Was she reporting on the news in an unbiased way, or was she trying to pressure the guy into saying "thats what the public voted for."


It's not the first time she has been in trouble.

oh sorry i dont know british anchors, or american ones for that matter, either way, she isn't behind the desk on that first one, she's on seen, ie, reporting. Maybe she's a bill oreilly wannabe? But like I said, obviously she isn't reporting, we don't care about her opinion in this segment, she is presenting a news story that people are protesting something. General questions about it are one thing but she is just being stupid.

Once again I revert to my original conservative spot, libs protecting libs, I mean, obviously this isn't quality journalism or reporting, I guess you could say she does it for the ratings, but just chirping at someone and repeating the same thing over and over again doesn't seem like a winning strategy IMO.

Btw, the video you just posted doesnt work in my region according to youtube.

There are a lot of reporters that are very well known, and work in the field to dig up some very cool stories. Most of the new people behind desks don't know anything, aside from how to read a cue card, or how to generate shock value on mainstream media lovers.

I just watch BBC News. It is (for the most part) fair and unbiased, and generally there is some good news reporting.
