Reply to: Just listening to the Journalist Nigel Farage

[DaveB]

Once said about Bernard Manning :

"The thing about Bernard was that he looked funny, he sounded funny and he had excellent timing. It was just what he actually said that could be worrying."

Same principle could be applied to Nige.

These days one can offend someone just by opening their mouth.

Yeah he should never have compared the Taliban pulling down historic statues with a vicious mob of rioters doing the same.

Pity he left before commenting on this one -

[vetran]

He's perfectly entitled to make any comparisons that he likes.

If they are valid. Which they were.

And his client is entitled to not renew his contract, as am I to not listen to LBC.

Strangely O'Whine cant stand him and Iain Dale rated him.

LBC's Iain Dale keeps 'black book' of banned guests and says Nigel Farage is 'very good broadcaster'

Dale said Farage’s interview with US President Donald Trump, which aired last month, had been a “legitimate scoop”.“He got six genuine news stories out of that,” Dale said, with the interview making headlines across the UK news media.
“It gave LBC more publicity than any other thing we have probably ever done. That is what Nigel Farage has brought to LBC.”

LBC Hits 2m Listeners A Week - A Quarter of Them For Nigel Farage | Kipper Central

Radio station LBC has received a welcome boost from new Rajar figures which show that the London based station, owned by Global, hit two million listeners per week for the first time ever, gaining ground at the expense of the BBC.Just under a quarter of those listeners tune in to former UKIP leader Nigel Farage’s show, which runs from 7-8pm each Monday-Thursday. The top rated show at the station was Nick Ferrari’s breakfast show with 1.2 million viewers but the stations bosses said that Mr. Farage’s figures were particularly impressive because his show is only one hour long, whilst all the shows with higher listening figures than his run for two hours.
The station also appears to have suffered no dip in listeners following the controversial decision to ditch presenter Katie Hopkins earlier this quarter following comments she made on air.

lets see if there is a dip in figures after he leaves.




I would be worried if I were Nick Ferrari!

Oh well, never mind....

Nigel Farage’s contract with LBC is up very shortly and, following discussions with him, Nigel is stepping down from LBC with immediate effect. We thank Nigel for the enormous contribution he has made to LBC and wish him well.

No not like the ones that politicians are often invited to write. Those are opinion pieces.

They are not even their opinions - just lies that currently suit them

Journalists seek the truth - Farage is as good as jiurnalist as Shipman was a doctor

By George he has almost got it!

Quality is not a prerequisite.

Alex Jones is not a journalist, but he has a radio show.

There is such a thing as a radio journalist.

[AtW]

Shipman may (or may not) have been a good doctor, according to some of his colleagues. He just happened to like killing people too!

Hardly a good doctor if there is even a remote chance of intentional murder!

What would you call those we see in the broadcast media then? (not to mention Polly Toynbee )
