Members of the public phoning a radio station to give their 'expert views' is NOT news - radio mic or no radio mic.

Burying your head in the sand and pretending everything's ok - that feels like you avoid problems!

I was mainly commenting on how appropriate televising a radio phone in and calling it news was - and that's on track. You may have moved on, but I've only just read this and wanted to comment.

Except, of course, the conversation in hand was actually about the PM programme. And, as I have expressed numerous times, including today, I consider visualising Nicky Campbell to be an odd choice and it wouldn't be something I'd have chosen. At no point did I refer to a radio phone-in as news, because it obviously isn't.

Ahh. My apologies. I missed that.

Agree that PM would work quite well.
