    In an exclusive for Conservative News Site, a media antagonist alleged to “Filibuster” issues and stories for mainstream news broadcasters in an attempt to re-focus on public figures has now been spotted in Reading, Berkshire.

    A suspect alleged of malicious interference seen here in The Oracle, in Reading, Berkshire.

    She’s alleged to have a network of thousands of contacts in media production circles. These act on her behalf to produce fake “Threads” of news to push fake narratives and continue false lines of argument. Her intent is to criminally harass.

  • GB News keeps up the fight

    The upstart GB News has seen the exit of a number of its onscreen talent in recent years. However, in as many it’s also lifted its viewing figures to heights similar to other news outlets.

    The emergence of “new media” is not something many foresaw, but it’s happening at a pace now. The large followings of some point toward a bright future, with GB News taking credit.

    It’s a tough task to face up to behemoths like the BBC. The layoffs show this. As its decision makers aim to compete with the mainstream, the right angle is more vital than ever.

  • The problem with news media

    The way of the masterful on television strikes me as being increasingly odd. Their penchant is for getting rid of people and the victims of this tirade have a duty to stay in their positions. The farce that ensues is one side insisting they’ve got a job to do, and the other implying it’s they who’ve got a job to do. The scenes are familiar.

    The tiresome aspect is that it’s so formulaic. We’ve heard the protestations of pundits over and over. It’s as if tomorrow will be more of the same, and it’s not because politics never changes. The fact is it does, but news has an awkward appeal to self on television that requires it to stick to its point whatever it is. The fact is it doesn’t work.

    There’s nominal value to telling us who’s who in Westminster. It’s likely we won’t get to know most MP’s anyway. It’s like they slip between our fingers without realising. The issues are also reduced to having zero value because we already know more. It’s likely a mid-level employee has a better grasp over a few minutes of an interview.

    The likely future of news is to tell it as straight as the straight talking. This is the point life makes at present. If the train is cancelled it leaves a whole crowd unhappy. It’s worth noting it. If the rain deluges a location it makes sense to show it. It’s because it matters. It’s a way of letting go as reality has a news cycle we can’t disown.
