Why I love BBC.
Because while CNN, MSNBC, and all the other asshole American media outlets just talked about how wonderful the inauguration was, BBC News actually reported that protests took place, and that they were quite large.

1. this country has no free or independent press
that is why our citizens are becoming so immune to all the horror in the world.

Brian Lamb hosted Washington Journal. The guests were reporters. All of the RW callers said that the media was biased or that they knew it was biased toward * (Fox) and that they only wanted to watch that sort of TV news. None of them seemed to be willing to look at or listen to any other news source other than RW TV or radio. What sheep. I know many young people (college students) who think that British news is all tabloids. They know nothing of BBC, Guardian, Times of London, The Scotsman etc.
