BBC Newsnight Investigates Voter Fraud
http://bucknakedpolitics.typepad.com/ buck_naked_politics/ 2008/ 10/ bbc-newsnig…signs that John McCain is now looking on the passion he has stirred up the way Frankenstein looked on his monster. But I’d like to know, What’s so bad about angry mobs? After all, angry mobs made our country -- and the Republican Party -- what it is today. The Republican Party certainly owes a lot to angry mobs.

Persistent Interviewing 101: Jeremy Paxman vs. Michael Howard
http://www.contentbridges.com/ 2008/ 10/ persistent-interviewing-101-jeremy-paxm…To yesterday's post on US journalists anemically shying away from "follow-up" questions (Tom Brokaw gets a B- for that, graded on a curve, for last night's debate), I got several good e-mail comments. My favorite, from a colleague in the UK, reminded me of the famous Jeremy Paxman interview with Michael Howard.

Newsnight Mess Up the Market Report Yet Again
http://www.order-order.com/ 2008/ 10/ newsnight-mess-up-market-report-yet.htmlKirsty correctly informed us that the pound had "tumbled almost one and three quarter cents" yet the graphic had it up +1.74 cents. Viewers have to guess the truth, one wonders does anyone at Newsnight actually care? Guido watched Randall Live on Sky earlier this evening interviewing Martin Sorrell.

Let Jeremy Paxman Moderate All Our Debates
http://bucknakedpolitics.typepad.com/ buck_naked_politics/ 2008/ 10/ let-jeremy-…by Damozel | Why do we allow---or insist that---debate moderators grovel instead of grilling? How, please, is that in anyone's interest? It's a mystery. Want to see what a real journalist/political interviewer/debate moderator does? That's what a real journalist, interviewer, and debate moderator does.

The Newsnight dilemma
http://adrianmonck.com/ 2008/ 10/ the-newsnight-dilemma/Jim Gray, formerly of Newsnight, presides over Channel 4 News. And Google’s Peter Barron formerly of Newsnight, formerly of Channel 4 News, formerly of Newsnight leaves an empty editor’s chair. Wouldn’t Gray be the best person to fill it? And the fact that Gray would not for one moment take that seriously, tells you everything you need to know about which is the better job in telly.

A special plea.
http://www.septicisle.info/ 2008/ 09/ special-plea.htmlIf anyone attending the Labour party conference happens to come across that fat Republican twat Frank Luntz, would they kindly knock him over and repeatedly jump on his head until his skull shatters, so that the nation can be spared the pointless, meaningless, boring and beyond endurance focus groups which he keeps holding for Newsnight?

Let's sabotage the Newsnight vote.
http://www.septicisle.info/ 2008/ 09/ lets-sabotage-newsnight-vote.htmlBoy oh boy, if there's one thing that we most certainly need more of it's pointless votes. The latest is being hosted by Newsnight, which asks you to vote for the best post-war prime minister. As Unity says, this is a pretty much naked attempt to get stories out of the fact that Gordon Brown is almost guaranteed to come last.

Newsnight Messed Up the Market Report Yet Again
http://www.order-order.com/ 2008/ 09/ newsnight-messed-up-market-report-yet.htmlAre they just doing this to wind Guido up? The Dow closed up some 1700% yesterday according to Newsnight. Do they use a monkey or a random number generator for their market reports? Every other night they screw up this simple report. They should just give up because wrong information is worse than no information.
