The choir get to preach back

Jul 11, 2011 21:06

I was listening to John Finnemore on the Now Show on the way home from work on Friday, and sat in my car applauding when he finished. You can listen to the whole of that episode of the Now Show here (I'm not sure exactly, but I think this started about five or ten minutes in), or read the transcript of John Finnemore's piece here.

Yeah, it makes for good comedy, but the message is serious. "Let’s keep the pressure up, keep the chorus of disapproval going, because right now we have a rare and genuine opportunity to tell the people who influence our lives, elected or not, what sort of media ethics we’re prepared to tolerate, right now we can make a difference, right now - if we don’t lose our focus - the choir get to preach back."
