  1. 1) Stephen Colbert was due to interview Texas Democrat candidate James Tarrico on his chat show. 2) There is a rarely imposed FCC regulation about "political balance" that states if a news or current affairs program has a politician being interviewed then a politician from the other side must also be interviewed. This regulation explicitly EXCLUDES chat shows. 3) PARAMOUNT, which is the corporation that owns CBS, the channel on which Colbert's show airs, needs the approval of the Trump administration to complete a major business merger. 4) The head of the FCC, Brendan Carr, wrote to CBS telling them that he was re-interpreting the regulation and the Tarrico interview could not take place. CBS's lawyers informed Colbert that the interview could not be broadcast and that Colbert could not inform the audience as to why. 5) Colbert, nontheless, DID say on air that the interview had been suppressed, and why. He then recorded the interview off air and posted it on his YOUTUBE channel, having told the studio audience and viewers of the broadcast show, "If you go to our YOUTUBE channel you might, coincidentally, discover that an interview with James Tarrico has somehow appeared there". So much for the First Amendment protection of free speech.
  2. Our DiL's brother has Tourette's and at her wedding to our son he on several occassions uttered the'N' word at the Camaroonian vicar conducting the ceremony. As we had warned him ahead of the proceedings he took it in good stead.
  3. I find it amusing watching video of US Senate commttee hearings, where the etiquette is for the witness to say thankyou to the questioner; "Why are you being such an absolute cunt ?" "Senator, thankyou for the question........."
  4. Trump says he is deploying a US Navy hospital ship to Greenland to take care of the very many sick people there.

    But it isn't a "dusty old book", it is The Word of God..........apart from the revised Word of God 2.0 that Christians use, or the Word of God 3.0 that is read by Muslims. ( Don't forget the golden plates that form the upgrade to Word of God 2.1 that were revealed to Joseph Smith ).
  7. I see you got full value for your £8.
  8. If we miss the playoffs it will be because we took 3 points in 7 games either side of Christmas, not because we drew today.
  9. We struggle when teams defend deep. Not enough guile or genuine pace.
  10. What a bloody miserable bunch they are then.
  11. Disappointing, yes. Terrible,no.
  12. You can only lose points if the EFL deduct them.
  13. 13 games still to play.
  14. Remind me what the score was when we played away at Charlton.
  15. No, a terrible result would have been a defeat. We have 1 more point then we started the day with.
  16. Why can't the ref book him for time wasting ?
  17. Harbie approves this substitution
  18. No he isn't and thst is the lot of being a goalkeeper - nobody can bail you out. The mistake for that goal was THB with a bad pass.
  19. 57 years of watching Saints so no.
  20. Is Charlton's striker Lydia the Tatooed Lady ?
