ange7... I'm not meaning to patronise you, but do you understand the format of the big brother sections of this website? When someone posts a topic in them, they go on the front page of the actual website, not the forum.
(i.e.
www.thisisbigbrother.com).
Therefore, it's a longstanding format that we post news stories with a link in here, so they go to the front page for visitors to read and catch up on news of things BB-related... that is all Red is doing.
