    Think i watched too much news today. I can be a bit sensitive to some things I see.

    Recent events have angered me. Certain newspapers showing totally unnecessary images to capitalise on the shock factor is sickening.

    It's not news, it's whatever agenda the organisation that owns the platform it's being delivered on wants to push - don't forget that.

    Red top newspapers are the worst for smuttiness and crassness.

    I think that's a large part of what messes with me too. I hate that I've become so cynical because I'm so aware I'm being 'fed' my opinion. Back to my boards family for me..
