Breaking News - Allegedly 10 people killed at office of satirical magazine in Paris

I suspect that Thought for the Day is faith-based because of something in the BBC's Constitution.
At one time, there was a Daily Service which I think is still broadcast on long-wave, and Thought for the Day replaced that on FM.

It has been reported that the Paris Police Commisioner allegedly shot himself. There is also a theory that he was murdered to quell information he had uncovered.

I wonder if we will ever be told the truth.

says here about people wanting secular thought for the day

Sorry to digress from the thread.

I'm not asking for a totally secular TFTD, just fair dibs.

Yes, exactly, *Riverwalk".

Surely not Agus! Nothing about it on the news this evening, I wonder why?!

My husband saw it on Twitter.

Yes. I meant a fair share.

You will find the report on PARIS (INTELLIHUB) if your Google Paris Police Commissioner. Sorry I can't do links

It seems he was already depressed and overworked so maybe the killings were the final straw?

Daily mail online has it.

Sorry crossed posts

Did any Brummies see the Fox News?

And this, again from Fox News. The solution is so easy, isnt't it? ((((O))))

Yes - I saw that the poor man was suffering from depression, so there was more to it. But meeting those families must have been so hard for him.

granjura - this Brummie saw the excerpt of Stephen Emerson saying that Birmingham was a no go area for non-muslims In actual fact 22% of our citizens are Muslim and we all seem to get along OK most of the time. I live here and can go where I please. He also said that in parts of London Muslims walk around with weapons and beat up anyone who isn't Muslim. What an absolute idiot. They spoke to him on our local news tonight and he has apologised profusely. The trouble is some Americans will believe him. Birmingham was the only UK city in the top 10 cities world-wide, so we can't be that bad! Jokers like this we don't need in the present situation.

Sorry, tried to copy the Fox News about Birmingham, but the other one came up about killing Muslims.

Nice to agree with Cameron, for once

The Fox News commentator who said the British city of Birmingham was a no-go zone for non-Muslims is a “complete idiot”, the prime minister, David Cameron, has said.

I saw the Fox News - someone had posted the clip on FaceBook. It is truly appalling that this sort of misrepresentation can happen, but more to the point is the fact that, many honourable, decent, stay at home Americans (only about 46% have a passport) might well believe it.

It is sensationalist journalism at its worst. Makes our red tops look incredibly tame.

The worst is, I have relatives there who are Tea Party types who actually believe Fox News = the only ones to tell the truth! They only watch Fox News (Murdoch!)- saw a brilliant Tweet about it by JK Rowling.

Could anyone copy the news video- just don't seem able to do it. Thanks.

Here is another simple Fox News solution:

Regardless of the rights/wrongs of events in Paris, I cannot help but feel that Charlie Hebdo's front page today is poking the tiger with a pointed stick to see what will happen. The vast majority of Muslims have condemned the attacks, but this front page will be deeply offensive to all Muslims, including those that condemned the attacks.

What is their true motive for doing this?

Oh dear.

I'm not surprised. Deliberately provocative like the previous cartoons.
