    She was just awful, she must like the sound of her own voice. If i was that young lad i'd have simply walked away.....stupid women!

    Well anyone who can ask a serial killer's wife "Do you think if you'd had a better sex life he wouldn't have done this?" is not deserving of the job title of journalist in my opinion.

    Any evidence or just spurious comments with no backing whatsoever?

    I can confirm that Kay Burley is a Labour supporter . . . . . Unlike the other Kay Burley that works for Sky News :p

    It is possible, that it could have been a question many had been asking though.

    I saw this live and I did think, ' what an idiot '. What was she trying to do? The guy should've just said, ' I'm exercising my rights and you have a problem with that?' She just sounded completely unprofessional,pathetic and just a little bit ignorant the rights of every man,woman and child in this country. I think she's spent too much time in the middle east. I think I even said out loud at the time. 'Stop trying to be Paxman'.

    Why do people insist on watching Sky News then complain about the lack of impartiality or unprofessional journalism?

    I can't stand BBC News so you know what? I don't watch it. I detest the Daily Heil, so guess what? I don't read it. Easy, isn't it.

    This is far more deep rooted than Kay Burley though, admit it. It's about Sky, it's about Murdoch, it's about the Tories and more importantly it's about the Political Left despising the Political Right.

    Oh Jilly. I had to laugh. You hit the nail on the head. :)

    So why aren't cries of 'Sack Eamonn Holmes' or 'Sack Adam Boulton' doing the rounds then? It's more about her being a disgrace to journalism than political leanings.

    Then they are cretins also. Do they seriously think that people go on killing sprees because they're not getting enough from the missus?

    Burley is basically putting part of the blame on to the wife, she's suggesting that if the wife had perhaps worn sexier knickers he wouldn't have murdered anyone.

    Like I said, cretins.

    Seriously :eek::eek:

    Are they people out in the world who believe that if you don't keep your husband happy in bed then he's likely to go out killing people?

    If it's not the mother getting the blame then it must be the wife :confused:

    Adam Boulton should be sacked too. Twice on the Election night he tried bullying two members of government into saying that Sky News was operating outside of the guidelines for reporting news.

    There are plenty of psychologists and therapists that do.

    I think it's a load of bull personally.

    Really? Do you have a list, or link to a list so that I can go and ridicule them too?

    I saw her talking about the people should go home and I dont think there was a problem, she was exposing the fact that they actully didn't understand what they were protesting for.

    I thought it was reasonable what she was saying, the man was saying that people came to protest to have a choice and she pointed out that they did, we had a general election for a choice. Why is she not allowed to question hipocracy? I was thinking the same as what she was saying

    It is not her role as a journalist to shout at protestors and tell them to 'go home'. It is her role as a journalist to report the news in as balanced and fair a manner as possible.

    Perhaps she thinks it the KBBC - Kay Burley Broadcasting Corporation :eek:

    Possibly, Murdock didn't give her a job description, so she's making it up in her head. The way she behaves is quite frightening.

    I haven't been able to watch SKY for weeks now :(

    She was the same during the Fire Fighters strike as well If I remember.

    Got an acid tongue, that one.

    having been savaged by her myself on Sky News many years ago, I'd be glad to see her go

    Is that the role of journalists these days?

    As I said on the other one, she's not so much a reporter as an activist.

    I'm staggered that as a Roman Catholic she was unaware of the significance of the ash on Joe Biden's forehead. Clue to Kay, it was ash it was a Wednesday......
