Talk:Media Watch (TV program)

replies: text: Tim Bowden hosted a program in the 1980s called "Backchat". I don't think he ever hosted Media Watch. Peter Ballard 10:39, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

message: I can't think of any reason to merge this.  The Cash for comment affair was a scandal undertaken by a radio presenter.  There are plenty of articles about the affair and the ABA got involved so it is notable and its own page is valid.  The article is on my shortlist to edit so I will get around to improving it shortly. - Shiftchange (talk) 06:08, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I tagged it, because it needed a lot of attention and no one give it any for at least five years now. I will be happy to see it turn into a full article, but I don't think there is enough information to get to 20k for a full article. The affair is a good fit with the Media Watch article, since they broke both stories, but if you really think you can improve the article, I will drop the merge suggestion for now to give you time. —[d'oh] 06:47, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
