This may be nothing to do with anything, but I have come to the conclusion that sky is essentially a fascist organisation, and don’t give me any of that ‘Godwin’s Law’ bull. We all know there’s a cricket match on, and yesterday I decided I wanted to watch some of it. I went to a nice quiet pub down the hill, and asked the landlord to put the cricket on. I sat there quite happily, watching the end of the morning session, when I realised something: you have to pay hundreds for sky, yet there are still adverts, and the commentary was pathetic. You got very little of the analysis that cricket lovers get when channel four or five.
So, for sky to claim that they love cricket is galling. They are, in fact,, ruining the sport by making sure very few people are able to watch it, and offering a substandard service to boot. By pumping so much money into the system, sky has a virtual monopoly; sport should be pure and fun, but Rupert Murdoch has turned it into something elitist, and which excludes people. This is why I say sky is fascist. It is wrong, and Murdoch should be stopped.
