“TalkTV has been shut down as a terrestrial TV channel by News UK. The Rupert Murdoch owned channel will be taken off air in the summer just two years after it was launched. The move comes after Piers Morgan quit TalkTV and moved his Uncensored show to YouTube permanently.“
[Daily Mirror]
I had missed that report from about 7 weeks ago. I have now seen this:
“TalkTV was a British free-to-air opinion-oriented[a] television and radio channel launched on 25 April 2022, owned and operated by News UK. The channel initially broadcast on Freeview, Freesat, Sky, Virgin Media and was available via the Internet on YouTube, later deciding in the face of poor viewer ratings to become available on the Internet only from 30 April 2024.[3]“
[Wikipedia].
It does not surprise me. Hardly anyone watched Talk TV; I had not done so even once, and I doubt that I know anyone who ever watched it.
It seems that, over the 2 years of its operations, Talk TV lost about £90M, and that the losses were increasing.
After my sentencing hearing about 6 weeks ago, Talk TV was one of the few msm outlets to report on the matter. Entirely inaccurately. They did not have a reporter in court, so must have taken their “fact(s)” either from the “Clown” Prosecution Service or from the equally-“inaccurate” “Campaign Against Antisemitism” website, though neither of those claimed that I had been imprisoned. Indeed, the “CAA” has already been whining about how the sentence was too lenient.
According to Talk TV’s “report” on its website, and linked to via tweet, both of which I have seen, and which are still extant, I was “jailed“! Presumably a Freudian slip by one of the wannabee “journalists” [who were] employed there. Or should that read (((“journalists”)))? Wishful thinking, on their part?
In reality, my sentence was one of a “community order”, comprising 15 days or part-days (the longest meeting—so far— about 2 hours) with the Probation Service, spread over 9 months, plus a costs order amounting to £734. See https://www.givesendgo.com/GC14J.
The mass media operations run by the aged cuckold, Murdoch, and his offspring have never been notable for their veracity, of course.
Anyway, it now looks as if the “journalists” of Talk TV, who could not get even the most basic facts right, will perforce be looking for other jobs, or other work. Good riddance.
[Update, 29 April 2024: just saw a few tweets which may explain why Talk TV was so keen to publicize my recent free speech conviction and sentence; turns out that one Jonny Gould, a Talk TV presenter (or perhaps now former presenter, looking at the news related above), who is a Jew very involved with issues around both “antisemitism” and Israel, is also (allegedly and according to the tweets I have seen) acquainted with (those tweets said a “fan” of) the egregious Mark Lewis —see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/01/11/update-re-mark-lewis-lawyer-questions-are-raised/— of both the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” and “UK Lawyers for Israel”. True, it may be that that is a co-incidence, but to my mind to accept that proposition would be asking a lot].

Why is this surprising to anyone? The UK almost shut down its society and economy for two years (supposedly because of a virus that actually was killing very few people), huge numbers of parasitic non-Europeans are entering the country, and are given housing, food, money etc out of public funds, and very large amounts are being transferred either to the Jewish-Zionist regime in Kiev, or to Israel in the form of air and naval operations.
Typical. Playing the victim while trying to persecute others. Absolutely typical.
(((LBC)))…
Not just Falter. Several of the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” Prominente have been trying, over years, to pervert the course of justice in respect of a number of people, including me.
Late tweets seen
Well, I have repeatedly pointed out what type of (((individuals))) literally own LBC and most if not all of those working therein…
Trump seems to have the edge, just about, as far as the popular vote is concerned, but whether that is enough I do not know.
The steep decline below replacement-level seems to have started from around that very significant year in the 33-year cycle, 1989. The decline seems to show no sign of stopping, though.
