Watching genuine shite to own the libs/ lefties is just a pure distillation of the brain rot that infects people today that I have to admire it. It’s impossible to watch something like GB News and believe it’s good so if you’re doing it purely to wind up people like me then batter in I’ll keep watching Justified and The Shield and generally having a good time of it.

I've watched literally 2 minutes of it when it launched and decided it wasn't for me but it does seem to be winding up a lot of the Twitter types I enjoy having a laugh at, similar to how the taking the knee seems to wind up right leaning pundits and Twitter types.

Actually didn't that Peter Sweden guy eat a load of disgusting traditional norwegian food like brown cheese and lutefisk specifically for this purpose

I’m pretty certain the Proud boys guy (Gavin Mcsomething) shoved a dildo up his arse to “own the libs” so not outwith the realms of possibility.

Those two minutes could’ve been spent watching the intro to the pilot of Justified, maybe the best pilot in TV history.

They’re at it to get publicity at the moment. The whole ‘Hugh Janus’ stuff was so obviously planned.

The real surprise is that everyone is falling for it. They launched with pretty much zero fanfare so are pulling out all the stops to get noticed.

Do you honestly believe that?

They are being roundly mocked and all the folk who'd want to watch it already were?

Watched approx 15 mins of GBNews this morning while I had a coffee & some cheesy biccies, won't be repeating that particular viewing experience - back to Radio 6 or Classic Rock for me!

I've done very well at not knowing who or what a Dan Wootton is and I intend to maintain this state of affairs. People dunking on it every 5 minutes jeopardises that.

I read his column in the Sun one day when I was at work. Princess Diana was a big inspiration to him as a gay teenager growing up in New Zealand because she was in a place where she wasn't really wanted or supported but she carried on. I wish I was kidding.

I doubt that making a complete arse of yourself is the way to establish your credentials as a serious news station.

I heard that Diana's inspiration was a local gardener with ginger hair.

Did the VL's VL Darren Grimes get a gig on GBNews ?

After flashing his knickers at them for months on end he ended up with a guest slot the other night - apparently there's a quote from Andrew Neill somewhere saying he doesn't rate him (I might have fallen for internet bs with that one though)
