Fantastic. Good on her and the station for letting it out on air.
I wonder if it'll make people think twice about what's important news to them. oh. don't get me started.

It's good to see this at last, after hearing Radio 5 playing the clip. I can't work out whether the two fellas are just idiots toeing the line, or whether they're just teasing her. Either way, she doesn't look amused.

I thought they were teasing her but it wasn't in the least bit funny.

I agree, one of them said to her, "will you stop being such a journalist" but apparently with no sense of irony. I actually thought that the guys came across as dreadful.

It is a bit ironic that the clip ends before finishing the important news story on American war policy; in a way, not showing it makes her refusing to cover Paris the news, which is about as bad as making Paris the news, because it really isn't news!

This kind of ties in with John's recent post about the empty format. News without news?
