Wrong! We find it amusing!

A BBC radio producer reflects on the momentary interruption of the perfunctory anti-American call-and-response chanting by Debbie Schlussel:

I suppose your average right-winger doesn't really listen to the BBC.
Apart from doing something akin to monitoring enemy broadcasts, no we don't. And it's not just because a quarter of their output is pointed at one sort of unbalanced, often factually reaching obsession with the US and has this "have you stopped beating your wife?" air about it.

Personally, I find it completely agreeable at this point to ask Europeans, and the various cultures around them that they have a media and economic stranglehold over to continually justify their opinions, their actions, and even their mere existence that they reserve for les étatsuniens. It might be the first time they ever encounter something called “diversity of opinion!”The Fuse is Lit (No Pasaran!)
