AIBU to ask your opinion of GB News?

[GingerCream45]

A friend recommended it. Have listened a few times. Just seemed to be endless discussions about stopping the small boats. Presumably this is a hard right leaning Station?

So basically a load of Swivel eyed loons on GB News then!

Except the fabulous, funny, clever Andrew Doyle <sigh>

"If I have to align myself with right wing bigots then I'll give that side of feminism a miss."

Although you don't have to of course. And you probably know that. Life isn't entirely black and white.

Speaking as someone who's never watched GB News. But even so.

To me it is black and white. I'd rather a Transwoman have a piss in the cubicle next to me than have to agree with the likes of the bigots on GBeebies.

I think a lot of people say that it's shit, because they think it's the done thing and want to follow the crowd.

Well, I must be really thick then! 😂I'm interested to find out what other people think - especially about something like Brexit (which I didn't vote for).

A lot of people on here seem to watch it, like they read the daily mail, then moan about it, typical MN

Yes it’s just the DM again on here

I came to really dislike Jenni Murray, she is why I stopped listening to WH. Increasingly couldn't share her perspectives.

GB is an opinion channel, I suppose. Opinions are like arseholes. Everyone has one & yet you should really only care about your own.

Or maybe it’s because it’s shit

All journalism is shit these days. Watch an interview from the 1970s, or 1960s, and you'll see what I mean.

I agree that mainstream media is shit. I have watched plenty from the past too. There are, however, varying degrees of shittiness and GB News is beneath the lowest of those. It’s actually rather encouraging that so many people recognise that!

Too woke to watch, thanks.

Reminds me of posters on here who supported Trump because of the trans issue, and saw the loss of abortion rights as a price worth paying.

Yes it means women end up dead or incarcerated, but that’s okay in certain strains of feminism, apparently.

Nope I just think it’s shit.

Full of presenters who don’t want to hear an alternative view that doesn’t fit in the GB News narrative.

He isn’t there anymore, thank god, but Dan Wooton was the worse for that. Lots of dummies getting thrown out of his pram if someone challenged his argument

But to the pp who was mentioning Piers Morgan, he isn’t on GBN he is on Talk TV, which is nearly as bad but not quite there yet

At least they know what a woman is. At any cost.

Ok, some people might think it's genuinely shit. But, you can't deny there are SO many people just jumping on the bandwagon!

@Womencanlift I don't believe that's true across all of it.
I've seen many of presenters absolutely pinned verbally to the floor in a way I've never seen on other chanel. They have proper debates

🤣

Fair enough, not my experience of watching it as anything I have seen turns into a slanging match, more than a debate. They even turn on each other as seen by the clips of Andrew Pierce and Bev Turner that go around

"To me it is black and white. I'd rather a Transwoman have a piss in the cubicle next to me than have to agree with the likes of the bigots on GBeebies."

Yes because that's all the tra/gc argument is of course.

GBN is for women who don't mind sharing toilets with men. Their toilets are Unisex, so if if female guests don't want a man in the same toilet, they have to keep it in.

The hypocrisy of the channel is hilarious and one of the reasons I watch it.

Its not news for a start. It's a populist channel designed to gain as much revenue as possible but definitely not news. Very right wing

Well done you 🙄 btw, even “intelligent” people can be taken in by populist rubbish - but I’m sure you knew that

Agree, really like Andrew Doyle and Free Speech Nation.
