I remain genuinely gobsmacked that this wasn’t picked up more. The Alex Jones who *repeatedly accused grieving parents of making up their children’s murders*.
Anyway, “after the news we’ll be joined by Nigel Farage & definitely won’t be asking him about any of this…”

On US TV shows and podcasts from 2009-18, Farage discussed supposed plots by bankers to create a global government, citing Goldman Sachs, the Bilderberg group and George Soros as threats to democracy. Included six guest slots with the disgraced far-right US conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.

Two stories you may not have seen this week that would be a big deal in a normal country:
1) The ‘dossier’ detailing the BBC’s editing of the Trump speech literally edited Trump’s speech.
2) The NBER calculated that Brexit’s longer term damage to GDP was greater than originally forecast.

Exactly. It is not humanly possible not to editorialize as an anchor, if you are filling an indeterminate period of 'dead air'. Also, procedurally inevitable that you will give platform to questionable pundits, whose nonsense goes unchallenged, as the gallery barks instructions in your ear. Obvious.
Strongly agree with the case that Alex made for this. Also - the News 24 presenters all look as if they HATE the gig. (Rolling news works on a station like LBC because the public join in the conversation and the presenters are allowed to have opinions).
