Should we just take their radios away?
Among the calls to the listener log after last night's programme:
"During the first sentence on the show, the word 'faffing' was used. I was offended
by this as I consider it a substitute for the 'f word'." (faffing is in fact a word)
"Eddie Mair referred to Osama Bin Laden's deputy as a 'creature', which I felt was
offensive. This could cost lives in Iraq and Afghanistan." (no, I didn't. Clean your ears out)
"Eddie Mair was just wrong to refer to the actions of the Burmese authorities as
genocide. It is criminally libellous and is an abuse of the word, which disrespects
those who have suffered from real genocides." (I was quoting the former Europe minister, Denis MacShane)
"There was no mention of the change in the interest rate today. It should have
been reported." (yes there was, in the news at 1730. But we should probably have done it in the 1700 summary too. So you can keep your radio)
