Watching the BBC news is becoming more like reading a tabloid newspaper.
20 years ago the Lee Rigby story and the April Jones story would have comprised perhaps a minute, with just the facts being reported: these days we see cameras thrust into the faces of the unfortunate families who have lost loved ones and they are paraded in front of journalists.
These people are grieving - can't the news organisations just leave them alone? The fact they are suffering anguish is blindingly obvious, but not a newsworthy story. News organisations used to report facts, now they are complicit in stoking up emotion - that's tabloid land.
Talking of Lee Rigby - can anyone tell me why his killers are being prosecuted under terrorism legislation when we have perfectly adequate laws against murder?
