OT BBC and gay proposals

[Airborn Pie]

OK, yes a great day for actual football activities so I expect flak for this but what the heck.

This is at least the third, gay marriage proposal that the BBC have put on their main page in the last few months including two blokes in a burger bar.

1. Why does the BBC think it's newsworthy

2. Why do they think anyone else is bothered?

It'll be because huge amounts of people watched the previous ones. That's basically how all online content is driven now.

Could it possibly be that even though it's a complete non-story, it can still gain enough interest among some for one of them to raise a topic about it on something as random as an EFL League 2 messageboard?

Strange that the post after mine said pretty much the same thing as I did.

Can you really not see that people just like you make a nothing story into a big story?

I don't agree it's a " non story " I much prefer hearing about a couple of dykes getting engaged than Notts signing a striker that could potentially fire them to promotion . COYD.

You don't have to read the report. I didn't.
