Mad People

From the Guardian: What people complain about on the telly:

An episode of EastEnders prompted a complaint that it showed people drinking from bottles rather than glasses and was therefore responsible for teenagers 'acting like tramps'."

Quite rightly so, I say. And I love the fact that so many people complain when so-called "breaking news" interrupts a programme. Nothing's so important that it can't wait, and, anyway, they always get everything completely garbled in the first couple of hours. They should learn to take a breath, wait for the news slot, and get it right.
