C4 News - Disgrace
Discussion
Just seen a frankly ill-informed and prejudiced report on C4 news about Honda's new car.
Rather than doing some research (for example discovering that Honda have spent fortunes on alternative-fuels research), the lazy report condems the carbon emissions of F1 and suggests that they could use Honda Insights(!)
Forgetting their own jet-trips on Pulitzer-prize chases to war zones, an 'interview' with Nick Fry, where it was pointed out that F1 has carbon-offsetted ALL of its emissions for the last TEN years, Jon Snow rather preferred the sound of his own voice, coming across as a pathetic Paxman-lite impression and cutting the interview short.
Perhaps we should all complain to these fools, after all, does C4 REALLY need to waste all that energy preparing the news? The BBC does it just as well...

I saw it too and completely agree, John Snow is a complete cock.
The way it started off was just as bad, they almost seemed to suggest it was all Jenson Button's idea!

As if Snow's acute bias were not obvious from the way he conducts himself as a "journalist", one need only be aware of the fact that he is President of CTC ('the UK's national cycling organisation').
When the topic is anything motoring-related, he always forgets to mention that, whilst he thrashes about with his prejudiced, ignorant questions.

Maybe he should remind himself that he is now effectively in the employ of Rupert Murdoch (hardly a shining example of environmentalism) and put his money where his mouth is by resigning?
