Can John ever cover a story without sensationalizing it. Please. This is an important story, but the urgency in his voice is a put on. Can we just get the story. Also John has already judged the mining company, no one knows what happen yet John!!
Yes it is sad, put can you possibly just report the news. Some times I switch over to the BBC or Mornign addition. You have a good show, calm down.
