We have the odd move towards American style media here, but it is rare, and usually pointed out.

On the BBC's website yesterday, the 3rd highest headline was 'Eastwood endorses Romney'

I promptly wrote a wordy complaint about journalism and listed why its unimportant (lifelong GOP'er, etc, who cares etc) and how there are real news stories out there, for example; Syria's civil war, South China Sea dispute, Russia's continuing clampdown on disobedience and of the continuing opposition to Putin etc etc.

I'll continue to do my bit to ensure news remains news, and not American style 'pop' news. And also to ensure that the journalists are........ journalists.
