Default Media Bias!

Alex Deacon tonight "almost the whole UK affected by snow". News headlines -
"heavy snow affecting most of the UK tonight".
This is outrageous bias towards the north and west of the UK. There are
other areas you know - like London and the South East.

Yours, outraged of Essex.
Not really ;-)

Absolutely Dave I mean who cares if it snows in the highlands, three English
walkers, Mel Gibson and a genetically altered sporran. Yet the heartbeat
and major exile place for wayward sweaties looking for work or booze is
London.

Outrageous Lawrence!
:-P

Anyway, the heavy snow was for most of the UK, which means most of England.
Very few parts of Scotland had snow or were forecast it last night.

Alex it's the same bleedin bias here in Devon. I can't remember the number
of times iIve woken up to thick fog and horizontal rain and the media have
blethered on about how nice and sunny it is across the country. Or I have
had a couple of inches of snow overnight and all that has been talked about
is rain. Or apparently the country is blanketed in fog and, guess what, it
is gloriously sunny outside! I bet Graham E. in Cornwall has the same
issues?
