OCTOBER'S I.C.s - JEREMY PAXMAN

*
Newsnight's master of ceremonies Jeremy Paxman was rampant throughout much of October, and among his many memorable encounters was a highly entertaining tussle with Boris Johnson (where Boris turned the tables and the Newsnight team were accused of tinkering with the tape to save some of Jeremy's blushes!) and a catfight with the odious Denis MacShane over the sex-trade.

The averages for October are:
*
Conservatives - 1.05
Labour - 1
Sinn Fein - 0.3
*
The figures here provide no proof of bias. What about the 56 interviews I've reviewed since June? Well, nor do these:

SNP (1) - 2.6
Labour (34) - 1.39
Conservatives (15) - 1.38
Lib Dems (5) - 0.98
Sinn Fein (1) - 0.3
*
The remarkably similar scores between Labour and the Conservatives, with the Lib Dems not far behind, is very striking. That is what all these results should look like!!*
