Huhne, Journalists & Their Common Problem

As regular readers will know, one of my many complaints is that we suffer from such a low level of journalism in this country, in that statements from politicians and pressure groups are faithfully reported, but without criticism or further investigation as to their validity by the journalists concerned.

A prime example exists today with the 'reporting' of Chris Huhne's latest controversial plan to increase the number of wind turbines. It had been my intention to post on this, however Richard North, EU Referendum, does it so much better here.

Oh - and the common problem afflicting both Huhne and journalists? They appear to have one brain cell between them - which obviously is not up to the job!

Good God, that many brain cells? You could have fooled me.
