Reference :- Is belligerent, name calling , biased , proselytizing journalism becoming outdated ?
It was Monte who alerted us first .
" Have you noticed how almost nobody is watching Sky News these days ? " Monte said .
So we looked at the figures , and more people would would probably tune in to a rerun of " The Phyllis Diller Show ".
But we did find a glimmer of hope in the otherwise appalling viewer numbers . It seems that when " The Outsiders " ( Rowan Dean's glittering effort ) interviewed former Fox host , Megyn Kelly , more than one hundred times the usual number of viewers were glued to the tube .
"They have to get her back then ." , Ken junior said .
But after watching the segment , it was obvious that as the interview progressed , Megyn had started to feel like someone being questioned by the gay revellers from " The Rocky Horror Picture Show " .
Megyn is a skilled journalist , and remained buoyantly polite , to her credit .
I doubt she will be back .
Since the Sky hosts mostly interview each other , perhaps somebody could take a fall for the team and commit some kind of deplorable turpitude . Preferably something of a prurient nature . There is nothing like a filthy scandal to get the viewers in .
Your comrade , Ken
