Rock on, Winterton .

This is one of those posts that I'm bound to make a spelling mistake in.

Sir Nick has sponsored an EDM calling for the BBC to do something about the way it butchers the language. Full details here: http://edmi.parliament.uk/EDMi/EDMDetails.aspx?EDMID=37030&SESSION=899

I fully support this, but what's more important is that fact that the beeb are still dumbing down news. ITV and Sky have produced "news for dummies" for years, what we really need is high quality, complex and in-depth news presentations that fully communicate all sides of an argument.

In a nutshell, less of the "simplify, then exaggerate" which has plagued us in recent years.
