During watching the UK show, Newsnight, a opinion-politics based show (you just have to watch it), there was a five minute piece from the notorious UK politics blogger, Guido Fawkes. He anonymously created a feature which tried to reveal the conspiracy of news representation in the on the BBC in the UK – as they can never give a completely unbiased story. He also claimed that as political correspondents working for the BBC have contacts with or even are friends with some UK politicians, that they naturally protect their contacts and friends within government.
What was hilarious about this feature was that when Guido interviewed the presenter of the show Jeremy Paxman (Paxo), Paxo called his accusations, (on national TV)
… absolute bollocks…
and refered to his ideas as being,
… stupid conspiracies …
Legend!
A look through Fawkes’ blog, and I can quickly see what Paxo’s talking about – half of the articles this week were about whether or not Gordon Brown picked his nose during the Budget speech that Blair was giving. Is this news, or even worth watching?

You may recall recently, that I had some virus troubles with Vista, where reading university banned me from the network temporarily while my virus was on my machine… Well, I perform a full system scan the other night, and Avast finally got rid of it. I was shocked however to find where the trojan was hiding.
The bloody trojan not only was able to surpass MS's 'most secure OS ever (bullplop)', but was also able to install itself into an .iso of MS XP Pro, so that everytime I tried to install the burned image of XP Pro, on Virtual Machine or as a native and lone copy, the trojan wa installed too.
Picture shows Avast's report showing that the virus was found on the Virtual Machine's own virtual hard disk.
Grahh! I still firmly use openSuse linux for day-to-day stuff, like internet banking which I'll never trust Windows to do… ever…
