Is BBC Radio4 Alienating its Core Audience?

What's gone wrong with Radio4? Simple, it has slid disastrously to the left, adopting all manner of PC, feminist, and greenie causes and promotes these pretty much as unquestionably good. Now don't misunderstand, I am not against any issue being dealt with in a balanced and critical manner, but I don't want strident, polemical minority advocacy shoved into my ears throughout my waking hours. I used to love Radio4 - I've listened avidly since I was a lad in the 1960s, but I am increasingly angered - especially by that man hating hag Jenny Murray and her vile programme 'Woman's Hour'. Murray seems intent on scraping away at the wounds of women who have been illtreated and deprived by unpleasant men. I wouldn't mind that this was done occasionally, but Murray seems to want it as as a kind of daily therapy. Today she was interviewing a rather spunky lady airforce helicopter pilot awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross for a heroic rescue she carried out under bombardment in Iraq. This outstanding woman (worth fifty of the haridan Murray), is a very fine example of our forces personelle, but all Murray could bang on about was that she was a woman. This unsurprising fact she could not let go and she persisted in trying to get her to accept full responsibility (as a woman and on behalf of women) for the whole rescue - dimininishing in the process the contribution of the rest of her brave crew, including one supposes the male medics who got out of the helicopter under rocket and machine gun fire and spent five minutes stabilising the casualty and getting him back aboard. Flight Lietenant Goodman however, to her considerable credit, declined to follow Murray's harpy agenda, and steadfastly pointed out the fact that she was one of a team who depend on each other for their lives and that the successes they have are not the result of a single members actions. In the end, the putrid Murray had to abandon her quest to diminish men, and just congratulate her guest.

I'll be the first in line to congratulate whoever in the BBC gives the beastly Murray her p45 and dispenses with her services. It will be a great day for mankind.

I agree completely. I think Radio4 has gone downhill and obviously this "womans hour" programme is designed specifically to brainwash all females into believing men are nothing but scum, so generally the opinion of Jenny Murray being drilled into us. People shouldn't listen to the old git.
