What is Jon Craig doing trying to interview cabinet ministers by shouting across Downing Street? Idiot.
I notice that David Steele was cut off mid way through making the point that the Tories have had lots of un-elected prime ministers

You idiot, what has he done? He's told someone with a massive ego(Alastair Campbell) what he really is
Who are you to call me an idiot? Do you see me insulting you? I'm simply putting across my views like the majority of people on here do! As a journalist Adam should be able to keep cool and handle the situation without the anger he just expressed and without getting personal towards the guests on the programme!
Adam Boulton is fast loosing any credibility as a journalist and has seriously grated on my during the past few weeks!

Yes it is not permanently on.
Side panel on HD coming on and off, does it only come on now and then? Sky Reporter shouting at Cabinet ministers coming in, with him shouting at Harriet Harman, "Are you going to run?" in a mocking voice.
Yes it is not permanently on.

How? Because Adam Boulton doesn't like Campbell?
The overall problem I think is that Sky News's impartially is in question here.

I can't believe Sky thought it was a good idea to put Campbell and Boulton side-by-side so soon after what happened just a few days ago. In a recent interview he described his relationship with Campbell as "bumpy". Well that's an understatement if ever I heard one.

Would you agree that the media often operate as a herd? Do you think that's healthy?
I had a very bumpy relationship with Alastair Campbell, but he did say to me once that the difference about me was that if I express an opinion, I try and attribute it. That is quite important. I wouldn't say on air: "I was falling asleep during that David Davis speech." I would say: "I saw quite a lot of people in the audience falling asleep." They amount to pretty much the same thing, but there's a difference. Broadcast political editors work in isolation and we don't actually see that much of each other because television tends to take you away a bit from the pack a lot of the time. But there are certainly occasions during big stories where either side of going live at Downing Street, we just say: "What do you think will happen?"

Why do you disagree with Adam getting personal with his guests while beforehand Alastair Campbell said some very nasty things to Adam. I think a man who has been working 18 hour days for the past month(Adam not Alastair Campbell) deserves better than the FALSE accusations Alastair made. "fastly loosing ANY credibility" leads me to believe that you are an idiot and you don't know what your talking about

Exactly - completely unprofessional - it is not his role to get into such a position. Is #sackadamboulton trending on Twitter yet?
Kay Burley is just incompetent - Adam and Jeff's incompetence is clearly premeditated.
The issue here is not bias it is how inappropriately Adam conducted himself.

This really irritates me. It's just so rude.
Why hasn't Sky and the other media outlets focused attention on the fact that Cameron failed to get an overall majority despite the fact that Brown is so unpopular. There has been no criticism of Cameron at all. To me, that is a form of bias.
