Moore blames women for ‘banal’ TV
British TV standards are deteriorating because the BBC is “run by women”, astronomer Sir Patrick Moore has said. The Sky at Night host also described female newsreaders as “jokey” and called for separate channels to cater for the needs of the different sexes.
The presenter said: “The trouble is the BBC now is run by women and it shows soap operas, cooking, quizzes, kitchen-sink plays. You wouldn’t have had that in the golden days.”
“I used to watch Doctor Who and Star Trek, but they went PC – making women commanders, that kind of thing. I stopped watching…I would like to see two independent wavelengths – one controlled by women, and one for us, controlled by men.”
The 84-year old Moore should be told that the BBC is actually run by a man, Peter Fincham, and its mediocre programming is what you get for government-sponsored and subsequently controlled, show. And the so-called news coverage? Embarrassingly biased and juvenile due to leftists who happen to be both women and men.
Oh, at the risk of ruining the curmudgeons day, someone also alert him to the fact that we have things called “dishwashers” for the kitchen, and shoes for women. Bottom line, I think if we were to scratch the surface of the old man we’d probably find a few women who made him feel, well, less than in charge.
I STARTED watching Star Trek because they made a woman Captain so there! To be fair at 84, he grew up with women cooking and cleaning and having no rights so any more than that is an insult. Now a convenient scape goat for crappy tv I guess.
