		<description><![CDATA[This stands in stark contrast to Mr. Hattersley's timid silence during the lost years of New Labour as the media men took over the reins of power, cozying up to big business and making waffle the newspeak of government. Let us not forget that at the height of New Labour's tenure in office John Prescott was pushing through a bill to build super casinos! What political belief could have driven him to such nonsense? - It certainly was not socialism.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&blog=2000120&post=2407&subd=talkingbollocks&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Just like that.

		<description><![CDATA[On Saturday night I watched the excellent BBC program Have I Got News For You and saw a great clip of Gordon Brown TALKING BOLLOCKS to avoid a question from the BBC's Nick Robinson. This was immediately followed by a look from Peter Mandeslon that, in my view, said: "Yes, I know he's an idiot, you know he's an idiot but we're going to bluff it out and you can't do anything about it."<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&blog=2000120&post=2310&subd=talkingbollocks&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mr. Murdoch’s claims for market forces are flawed. Market forces can produce a plurality of suppliers but this does not mean a plurality of services or opinion. On the contrary, market forces use competition to evolve a monoculture of services and opinion.

This has happened again and again in history from telephone systems to television. VHS won out over the superior Betamax format and Blue Ray has recently won out over HD DVD for high definition television recording. This is classic free market operation. Multiple ideas emerge and one wins out, sometimes through an innate superiority, but often due to superior management, marketing or any number of other factors. For TV formats this does not matter, but for news, which is essentially the battle of ideas, a monoculture is positively dangerous.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&blog=2000120&post=1157&subd=talkingbollocks&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nowadays we might believe that the guilty can live very easily with their guilt even given our centuru of psychoanalysis. Confessions are deployed in cop shows more as demonstrations for the audience that the correct conclusion has been reached. Evidence is the primary interest not confession. Confession is portrayed as the last act once the criminal has had overwhelming proof of guilt thrust in their face. Its icing on the cake for pure drama. Its not redemptive, indeed the criminal is often defiant in confession.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&blog=2000120&post=805&subd=talkingbollocks&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
