  • Will Johnson make it to GB News?

    The speculation is rife for a week and then it drops off. It comes back if the event actually happens. This is where we are in the journey Boris Johnson is taking to join GB News as a contributor or a presenter.

    His other TV work has gone down as a huge hit, so it’s not just a rumour and it’s no surprise people are interested.

    The trouble has ensued after criminals were being found trying to interfere with, and infiltrate to takeover, staffing for the news outlet based in Paddington.

    It’s believed Johnson was put off by this interference, but had waited to see if it clears up in time. His schedule is notoriously difficult to manage and his staff want to make sure a plan works.

    So the return of the former Mayor of London and former Prime Minister to our screens may yet still happen, pending events.

  • GB News in trouble for anti-Muslim comment

    It’s not easy listening to someone complaining about something that is special to you, but a bus journey only lasts so long and it can blow over for most of us.

    Yet, if it’s a live station broadcast it’s not so simple as to consider it’s just a passing comment.

    In a recent example, Patrick Christy of GB News is now alleged of hate by saying Eid is used for rape by Pakistani men.

    It’s reminiscent of a troubled era in recent political history, and brings up the unfortunate efforts of radicals and far right people.

    MEND is calling for an investigation into the comment, which the Muslim group calls “a grave and unqualified allegation” in breach of obvious TV rules.

    The seriousness of any and all accusations aside, perhaps GB News should plan their content in future, at least in regard to such emotive and sensitive a topic.

  • GB News keeps brand alive – and strong

    GB News, a Paddington-based outlet providing British news for British viewers – has seen its share of the market increase. While its founding was marked by technical hiccups and showdowns with regulators, the future looks brighter.

    According to Press Gazette, its April scorecard shows an audience of 10.5 million, a reach of 20% of the market. Its growth is 37.8% year-on-year, which is a sizeable slice for one of the newest kids on the block.

  • Forthcoming: “TV” on ConservativeNewsSite.com

    As part of the service offering on ConservativeNewsSite.com, a new TV channel will be launched on this website.

    Its scope is the UK and its focus is on developing news stories as they happen.

    It’s not a protest format. It won’t follow particular individuals. The gist is still Conservative.

    The launch is planned for this Summer. It will run live, but focus on particular events.
