    I'm on t' telly this morning!

    I swear, I just can't avoid the damn cameras!

    We went for a nice bike ride yesterday afternoon and rode straight into a BBC film crew shooting a piece about motorbikes using the footpaths in the local nature reserve...

    Next thing I know I'm being asked on camera about what I think about it.

    So now I'm on breakfast TV, East Midlands regional section.

    As usual, the piece has been edited to suit the story they want to put out, so although I've said I don;t mind it too much, the riders are courteous and considerate of others using the paths, the bit they've used is me saying how the noise can be a problem...

    Anyway, if you're up in the East Midlands area you can see me nearly falling off me bike in the local area section of news.

    and the BBC/ITV/Broadcasting companies worry that people don't trust TV reports anymore.

    I swear, the truth wouldn't hurt, just once. Why must they edit what you say to make it fit?

    News reporting is becoming poorer and poorer. I don't watch the beeb news simply because I can't trust it anymore. Better to go online with more than one source.
