GBNews

Oh dear! All the sarky, prissy comments! 😁. Go on with you, it's an enormous coup for GB news and will boost the ratings overnight. Other channels will be gnawing their knuckles in disbelief and probable rage. GB news is excellent, can't wait to see and hear Boris!

He’s not a great orator or presenter and I doubt any other broadcaster would touch him with a barge pole, but it gets publicity for the station and no doubt will have a few more viewers to boost their paltry figures.

Paltry? They beat BBC and Sky News in ratings.

Really!
Its reach is modest: 600,000 people a day compared with 2.4m for BBC News and 1.7m for Sky News. (It aspires, rather optimistically, to leapfrog both by 2028.)31 Aug 2023

I’ve never watched GB News but Boris was a popular guest presenter of HIGNFY back in the day.

Wow the haters are out in force! 😂😂😂😂

There’s a saying which goes something like ‘if you sink low enough you’re bound to be cock of some midden’.

Great saying Quokka and we all know BJ is a prize one 🤣

I have not watched GBNews presume by the name it’s right wing and a biased programmed which is exactly what Johnson is so they should be well suited I believe his programme is going to be showing ‘the power of Great Britain around the world’ well that’s a big old laugh to start with so obviously a comedy show

I'm not sure why "GB" should be considered to be right-wing.

We have the eponymous British Broadcasting Corporation, France has France24, Germany Deutsche Welle etc.

No axe to grind as I've never watched GB News, but I'm curious about why some consider that the name GB = right-wing?

Obviously they are actually doing the Devil’s own work by sticking up for this country and its people…. Absolutely disgraceful. 😁😁

Well, I know it is but why did you think the name GB is considered to be a rightwing term ?

They have a massive range of guests on GB news, loads from the Labour party including advisors to Tony Blair, trade unionists, Journalists etc and they are all free to talk as they like and they do just that.

Lee Anderson (Conservative) does a spot on a Friday night called “Left in the Corner” and, as the name suggests always has a Labour person answering questions and taking part in a fun quiz.

He has found his natural home. Better for him to be there buffooning around than pretending to run the country.

You will hear more disparaging remarks aimed at the Conservative Party than any other news outlet.
Because they aren’t 🤐
I think even Jeramy Corbyn would wince when Eamon Holmes lets rip.

I doubt he can be relied upon to turn up for more than a few weeks, but with such low viewing figures no one will notice anyway 😂

A whole thread about BJ as a presenter. Well it’s certainly got the chattering classes going. I don’t think any other presenters have managed that!

BJ is I think more suited to TV programmes like HIGNFY and, probably, GB News - and he's 'good with words' in print. When he's had time to, erm, collect his thoughts.

I don't like the man, but he's entertaining in that sort of environment.

He should've remained a journalist - that to me seems to be where his talent lies.

My thoughts exactly 😆
I imagine them all tuning in to GB when Boris is on, just to spit out an email sharing their disgust - viewing figures will rise based on that demographic alone 🤣🤣

Do you honestly think that some of us will subject ourselves to listening to the verbal diahorrea that spews out of his mouth just so we can then talk about it on social media?

I really do Maybee70 😁

Did I dream it or was there this exact thread a few months ago?🤔

this thread has made me laugh I also feel he's less dangerous presenting GB News
