Another day, another dollar?

 As reporters go on the rampage to rubbish our wonderful Coalition.gov.uk

 Climbdowns, stinging attacks, entrapment are all newspaper tosh and the scare tactics even appear to be spreading to Industry spokesmen. But Gov’t policies are not influenced in the pages of a daily rag? All these men and women should grow up and refrain from this edge of the seat stuff; it doesn’t change government policies or indeed massage the sales figures of tomorrow’s chip paper.

 It merely offends the right thinking activists, who the world depends on to ensure democracy develops and prospers across the globe. So, if indeed a newspaper hack needs to get noticed by his editor, there have to be other ways of achieving it, without this constant hyperbole. No doubt the newspaper and broadcasting hacks have to fight for ascendancy, but to rubbish people and pursue entrapment techniques does them no favours, especially when it descends to the level of the dark side of the moon.

 Fabricating situations and scenarios is for novelists, not reporters, they should concentrate on getting it right, rather straying into areas they’re forced into, in the mistaken belief that sensationalism will project them to the dizzy heights of an international TV interviewer of significance.

 It’s like being one of the sixty odd thousand aspirants it takes, to produce a Premiership Super Striker. Only one in a million around the globe is gonna make it, so relax boys and girls, just get on with doing what you do best to the limit of your abilities.

You know it makes sense!

Watch this space, I’ll be back!
