I don’t watch Farage or Dan Wooton, but at least you have a choice to switch off their programmes,. GB news has different presenters, unlike ITV and BBC where you get the same old presenters day after day, and they come across as arrogant and sneering.

Here are lists of news presenters on ITV and BBC.

www.tvnewsroom.co.uk/itv-news/itv-news-presenters-2333/
There are over 30 people on the BBC list and 12 on the ITV list.

You do not get the same old presenters day after day at all.

Who cares? If you want to watch it, watch it, if you don’t want to watch it don’t watch it. Economically it will swim or sink at the end of the day. Personally I now listen to Radio 4 news and debate programmes rather than watch. Yes it is part of the BBC but there is more bite by the presenters and much more multi sided debates.

Avalon I couldn’t understand why it was a TV station in the first place.
It would have worked much better on the radio.
The whole format and content is suited to radio.

Andrew Neil on Question Time this week

25Avalon Tue 14-Sept-21 12:24:09

Andrew Neil has stood down as chairman, which is no real surprise. He will, however, make occasional appearances on the news show.

Andrew Neil compares GB News to ‘UKIP tribute band’

No surprise there, I'd say.
