re: If you think our TV journalists are biased....

British media hosts and mods are notoriously leftist. It has been a complaint for some time.

One of my favorite responses to a media mod was by Jacob Rees Mogg. Mogg is an Eton and Oxford educated Brexiteer Conservative. The media loves to say that he went to Eton and does so all the time as part of their strategy to paint him as a rich man who doesn’t care about ordinary common people.

The debate centered around a proposed third runway at Heathrow, which leftists vociferously oppose. Mogg said that additional air traffic in and of itself does not destroy the environment and pointed out that he lived in a runway air corridor during school.

The mod leaped upon the opportunity, saying “Sure, this was when you were at Eton.”

(Mild applause and snarky laughter)

“Yes...as you know, I was there with your son.”

(Erupting laughter and applause)

The mod was pissed, an immediate scowl settling on his face.
