It's good to have this on record so history has the full picture of him, but beyond that valid reason, none of his supporters will care about this, and none of his detractors will be surprised. He'll just end up booked on Question Time again because of it.

It's such a miserable state of the industry that Warner Brothers is going to end up being consolidated with a rival. Be it Ellison's Magamount, Netflix or Comcast which owns Universal, it's all bad options. Well done, Zaslav.

Friendly reminder; anyone not treating climate collapse as an immediate threat of unimaginable scale and violence should be ignored, fired and/or voted out.

The creeps and duds who occupy our government, corp news media and boardrooms need to go FAST.

A question on my mind when watching Pluribus is one I don't think the show needs to spend time on, but I find fascinating: if a writer lived in a world where there were no more readers, would they still write?

It's that time of year where every ad is for Christmas and each one more nauseating and naff than the last.

Anybody who had a vision to bring American levels of political, cultural and social polarisation to Britain - whether their motive was clicks or cash, ideology, boredom or anything else - would make it their top strategic priority to abolish the BBC, or to damage and diminish it at the very least
Quick thread on the BBC and the political and societal significance of recent developments:

One of the main reasons the UK has historically been so much less polarised than the US, is that Britain has a shared source of information, consumed and trusted by most people regardless of their politics.

In an endless churning sea of slick, competent TV and polished, expensive cinema, Pluribus is the first thing in a long, long time that left me grinning because I felt something I've not in forever — inspired.

Just discovered Fireside by Kevin C. Olohan and it's terrific. Reminds me there are so many great shows out there that still manage to slip through the cracks. If you fancy being regaled on Irish myths and the meaning behind them, this podcast is superb.

Celebrity Traitors has been one of the best series of competition reality TV ever. It’s been so entertaining. Can’t wait for the final and haven’t a clue what way it’ll go.
