Default Adam Boulton calls Ch4 News teams "Muppets" but not Jon Snow

[The veteran broadcaster aimed
a swipe at the Channel 4 show,
presented by long-standing
anchor Jon Snow. “I love Jon Snow,
he has been a mentor of mine,
but you do sometimes wonder
how many presenters they can
cram into their (Channel 4 News) studio.
I saw Jon at a summit, he was reporting
on his own. I said, 'it's nice to see you without the muppets'.”]

Nice Adam respects Jon Snow,


[Boulton told The Guardian:
“It’s not that the individuals are muppets,
it's that idea of the big figure
surrounded by a whole load of
other figures all fighting over
the autocue. I think it’s Jon's show.”
Snow has been the face of Channel
4 News since 1989. He shares
screen-space with Krishnan Guru-Murthy,
who joined in 1998 and is “one of the main
anchors of Channel 4 News”,
according to the programme’s website.
Cathy Newman has also become
a lead presenter on Channel 4
bulletins since arriving in 2006.
She has been linked to the Sky News
political editor’s role which Boulton
is vacating. Matt Frei, Channel 4 News’s
Europe Editor, is another co-presenter.]

Who owns sky, again? He may well have a point, but he should be careful with those stones when he's sat in a glass house.

I'm not entirely sure why anyone would give even the slightest of shits what Adam Boulton says, thinks or does.
