    In fairness her profile does say
    I know it's fashionable, but even in 2019 there is nothing big or clever about shooting the messenger - tweets or retweets here aren't necessarily my view

    Which is OK.

    But only if you let us know which stuff you are retweeting on behalf of Cummins or Tory Central. :mad:

    @BBCRealityCheck is OK for a blogger but you'd expect more from a broadcaster that is starting to trade on its reputation.

    It's ITV. Tabloid to BBC's broadsheet. (channel 4 would be the guardian, Channel 5 the weekly sport)

    ITN do the news for ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5.

    Which says a bit about how those channels tailor it to their audience.

    I'm reading Kuenssberg's tweet as saying that picking a row by doing that is a bit daft.

    Maybe so but not exactly sure that helps her much. If the best she can say about it is that it was "daft" then she was better off saying nothing at all imo. Makes it sound more like a harmless prank to provoke a reaction than a cynical ploy to dupe people which is how most commentators took it.

    Kuenssberg is a Boris mouthpiece. No 'disclaimer' on her Twitter profile changes that.
