they start to question and analyze every belief that they ever held dear. If
a certain belief passes the tests of evidence, deduction, and logic, it
should be kept. If it doesn't, the belief should not only be discarded, but
the thinker must also then question why he was led to believe the erroneous

So. Is your TV of the CRT or LCD type? Do you leave your TV tuned into a
station that uses solid DOGs for hours at a time?


CRT but I never sit for hours on end watching tv anyway. Who does,
apart from Billy No-Mates like Aggy or The Royale Family? ;-)

As I thought. I was particularly amused by his threat not to watch
BBC3 again. As if the BBC give a toss if some nutjob stops watching,
when viewing figures are only estimated anyway.

Falling viewers is often the excuse that broadcasters use for putting
extra junk on screen. They see it as a way of competing with other
broadcasters for the dwindling number of viewers who will put up with
it. It doesn't seem to occur to them at all that they are driving the
viewers away themselves by doing it.

Exactly. I'm sure many people, including myself, have told them this
but they don't listen.

It's a classic situation: when their solution does not work, rather
than reversing a decision, they say "we need more of it" and so on in
a vicious circle. The ultimate conclusion of this will be when the
channel has zero viewers or someone comes to their senses.

Once BBC1 starts the same, I will cancel my TV license and find
something better to do.

You mean you don't already have better things to do than watch BBC1
(like, say, watching any other channel that isn't ITV)?

I watch very little TV these days and I usually have better things to
do ;-) Occasionnally there is something worth watching on BBC 1 or 2.
However it would take only a small change (such as DOGs on BBC1) to
ensure that I watch no TV at all (except DVDs for the pedants ;-)
