Frankie ‘Heineken’ Boyle

 

 

Frankie Boyle isn’t impressed with the Guardian’s commercial interests  (H/T  Guess Who)….of course the personalised adverts within the text are shaped

Sponsored by the Morris Dancers Collective.

 

to your own activities on the web….block the advertisers with ‘Ghostery’ and they don’t come up…The Guardian has a vast number of commercial ‘trackers’ that watch your every move…so much for its war on the ‘spy’s’…..commercial interests trump such principles…..looks like Boyle likes Heineken…

Heavens knows where the BBC’s ‘self awareness’ is on Frankie’s scale….maybe it depends on whether he needs a gig with them or not!

Still, good of the BBC just to concentrate on the Torygraph.

Wonder why.

    Giving editorial control to advertisers – in Telegraph’s case HSBC – in exchange for money.

    Bit like the BBC taking money from the EU and the UN and NGOs in exchange for supporting the EU and shilling for Global Warming. The difference is?
    Maybe the difference is that the BBC is a public service broadcaster and has a moral and legal duty to tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth, whereas the Telegraph is a private organisation and no one is forced to buy it?

    The Guardian has, or had, a cosy relationship with one of its advertisers.

    The Guardian runs many pro-BBC articles.

    The BBC spends loads or public money advertising jobs in the Guardian.
