[Bluecortina]

Not only that she and all of the presenters leave the viewer in no doubt what their opinion is on everything and is one of the reasons I have stopped watching GMB totally this year

I much prefer news when the presenter tells us the facts not their spin and opinion on it. Leave that for the guests 

I used to find Susanna much better in the Piers Morgan days but these days she just annoys me with the constant faces she pulls, the ways she slows down her talking , clutching on to a mug for dear life, the way she speaks to politicians. 

The problem with GMB is no matter what someone in power does they will always criticise them for not doing the opposite and expect things sorting in the click of a finger knowing full well its not possible but it stirs up anger for the viewers on Twitter

Add in the pointless debates which become shouting over each other matches and trivial fluff they obsess over like presenters hair or clothing and its a total turn off for me these days

It seems to me the self appointed role of the media these days is to sow the seed of doubt in the public's mind about pretty much anything and everything to do with day to day life, to undermine people's trust in the governance (not government) and institutions of the UK. We call it 'gaslighting' these days don't we?

Long gone are the days when television news was presented in a straightforward 'looking down the barrel of the lens' to the viewer manner. I used to watch BBC news many years ago but gave up due to the utter pomposity of its presentation. I turned to C4 news but increasingly find myself developing an urge to throw a slipper at the screen, so occasionally now I'll watch ITV's NAT but given the main presenter's passion for huffing and puffing and outright sneering at what he so obviously personally disapproves of I suppose I'll abandon that too in the end.

As the saying goes 'A man who doesn't believe in God doesn't believe in nothing, on the contrary, he believes in anything and everything', and that's what the situation is becoming in UK news provision. For 'God' you can substitute News, for 'anything and everything' you can substitute the www. What a very very sad state of affairs.
