Bias in news-story

I'm a huge fan of this web site, and hate to say this, but the news story posted tonight on the 'Big Fight' misses out a crucial part of how events unfolded. I think it's important that Alex made an attempt to explain to Kate and Jonny that the argument was between him and Jade and not between himself and them. This was the product of a lot of pent-up frustration, but it was an important differentiation (different arguments!).

I know I sound like a pathetic Alex-supporter .... OK. I am. Just like everything to be even-handed, that's all.

But he wasnt honest about what he'd said to Jade and how he manipulated the situation.

Email Steven by clicking on his name in the article. I'm not sure if he's still up and he will tidy it up.

I hate to say it but i thought the same thing but didn't want to mention it for the fear of being told it was because i like Alex

Point taken, but I think he was too far gone by then to get facts straight. Alex is not tactician at the best of times, let alone after a few drinks. I just feel that this 'scene' warranted mention, as it was an important aspect to the evening (being 'vaguely' nice to Jonny for one, even if not his 'cup of tea' - had to be a first).

he wasn't honest in that he omitted (or glossed over the actors jibe) that said Jade tried to use that to inflame jonny & kate, who were not the targets of his tirade, so he committed no real sin, just a bit of incidental back stabbing, and who could possibly moan about that

Where's all of Jonny's rant, there was a lot more than one F$$$$$$ said, where's the rest.

Thanks guys, I'm working on a further update to the story right now...

With such a huge story its hard to get it all in first go, but we do try our best.

And as Mr Omega said, it is a good idea to email the reporter(s) involved just in case they're not aware of the problem. We do appreciate feedback!

Thanks for using Digital Spy: Big Brother.

A-different-Bob,

You say Alex wasn't honest about the situation with Jade, but maybe that was how he saw it. People don't see things clearly in the middle of an argument. I don't think he was manipulating the situation, he has clearly been under a lot of stress in the House lately and all his pent up frustration came pouring out. After all, he is not working to a script like Johnny. Although, even Johnny came of his script tonight to go on about being up for nomination 3 times (yet again) when he had done nothing to be nominated for. Even better, Johnny admitted he had not been himself in the house otherwise he would have been out in week 3 (evidence from the horse's mouth) that he has been acting all along. Why, because he know's if he was himself he would have been long gone. I really don't understand why people want someone to win who is playing a part (you might as well have a professional actor in the House with a script)!!

He said the issue had nothing to do with Jonny and Kate - there was an issue - he hates the fact Jade is going to be there until the last week, and he hates the fact that Jonny and Kate didn't nominate her. He went straight back into the bedroom as bitched about them not nominating her.

He lost it for me when he jumped up on his bed like a child at winning an argument though. What a ******.
