I dont think you can apply the same measure to newspapers
Why do people buy newspapers ? ... News, horrorscopes, sport, racing tips, page 3, celebrity gossip, crossword, magazine articles, or a combination of ?

“ These deluded posters are more or less inferring that the British public are stupid or brainwashed.”So the bitter ex remainers are deluded when they tell us that people who voted to leave the EU were stupid or brainwashed ? Personally I don’t watch GB news because I can’t be bothered . That doesn’t mean I trust the BBC news more . Yep we can all remember the insults and bullshit from the arseholes who voted remain..

Well I don't think people spend their hard earned money on newspapers they dont trust - whatever their reason for buying. If you buy the Sporting Life for the racing tips are you likely to trust those tips or believe they are bunk?

Fine, so we agree that a group want the station silenced, but that it has nothing to do with Ofcom saying GB News broke broadcasting impartiality rules. Bit Random. Again my assertion was not as you suggested. If we move on to the Ofcom decision it is clear its investigation would be influenced by the number of complaints received as they do not even list those with less than 50. So there is a connection between the number of complaints and why and how an investigation is carried out. A campaign that tries to shine a light on any small infraction of a particular channel will affect what investigations are carried out. It is not random to believe that campaigns affect decisions. Nothing of the sort is clear. Ofcom look at the material, not the loudness of the cries.

No I guess not and you ignored the ones about the bbc being warned several time for their own biased views..

The full figures for 2023 ( British Audience Research Board BARB ) show that GB News is bottom of the list when it comes to the average British viewers preferance for news. Which for me translates that it is the least trusted ... so much for posters here declaring that only GB News tells the truth, and all the others are (according to some posters ) "Left wing". These deluded posters are more or less inferring that the British public are stupid or brainwashed. Top of the list in 2023 is BBC News with 71% and at the bottom below even Channel 5 News is GB News with 6% As stated previously in other topics, most people want news to be unbiased, informative and balanced As regards the last sentence how would people know? They may want that but how would they find out?

Believing otherwise is strange as it is exactly why campaigns exist.

What a shitty mess you have made. All the talk of Tories getting stuff done. And after 14 years in office. National debt is equal the GDP. Highest immigration rates ever. Crime rates through the roof. 3 years to process an asylum seeker. 18 months to get a hospital bed. Millions wasted on Rwanda, one bloke sent, more boats than ever coming over the channel. Scandal after scandal of Tories with their hands in the till. Party gate. Blood contamination victims not compensated, Windrush not compensated, Post office not compensated. How thick do you have to be to keep supporting such utter shite. What a bloody mess you've left us to sort out, but don't worry, we'll fix it, we can do more than just shout rude names. Taken any more heat pumps out lately, that well known bricklayers job.
