The BBC will sack Lineker for his humanity but pay Chris Mason and Laura Kuenssberg eye watering sums to rim Tories and push a right wing agenda.

We urgently need press reform.

Closure eventually came in 1959, and like most became a bingo hall 2 years later. Even this was short lived, and lay dormant as shown below for some years until the late 80s. Pretty great mural tho.

'The difference between a hero & a coward is one step sideways'

Gene Hackman was a latecomer, but a quick master of genre and tone - a performer whose comedy timing & fatherly gravitas were always in a constant duet.

Goodnight, Mr. Luthor. You were indeed a mastermind.

On December 31, 1946, in Brooklyn, two young women got on a subway train and sat across from each other. They had never met, had never spoken, but their lives had been drawn together—and the entwinement was a sinister one. #NewYorkerArchive

Rise caused by parents ferrying children in Range Rovers and SUVs, not using public transport.

The rich cause most of the carbon emissions, don't bear the social cost.

There seems to be widespread recognition that bad facts are bad news, and, despite skepticism, there is an enduring thirst for reliable information. The question is, where can it be found, and how can its purveyors make themselves heard amid the noise?

Journalists put more stress on accuracy than ever before. The problem is, accuracy is a slippery idea.
