I know I seem like a broken record, but is your view on a TV program really news? You know there's a TV section of this website, right? If people post non news related threads in news it pushes the other real news questions and answers off the bottom of the page into oblivion

Paxman's parkinson's was reported in several newspapers yesterday, doesn't that qualify it as 'news'? In the Guardian it was reported in the news column, not the gossipy, lifestyle type columns

Clearly I am the only one this bothers a little bit :) although I don't really understand why it does so I suppose I'd better shut up about it :)

It's in the news so it's OK bednobs, even without a link.

If it was an opinion about whether cod or haddock is preferable with chips, I'd be with you on wanting it moved to another section.
