\"BBC<\/p>\n

Last night, the truly dreadful One Show on BBC contrived to do a piece on the forthcoming ‘Four Lions’ comedy film by Chris Morris<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Despite the film not being seen by a single person they interviewed<\/em>, they tried desperately to stir up some cheap pre-release ‘outrage’ by showing the trailer to a selection of tut-tutting, pre-primed young Muslims, some people in the street and a serious talking head who was already outraged in behalf of others.<\/p>\n

No one had seen the film, no one knew what it was actually about, yet this shitty excuse of a show that makes “That’s Life” look like Newsnight persisted with their attempts to whip this pointless non-story into something substantial.<\/p>\n
