Having said that, Aretha Franklin was a top notch singer and performer in her day, definitely one of the greats of Motown.

probably not, but the leftists would word it differently But imagine your hypothetical aunt died and you visit your unknowing hypothetical sister. Normally the first topic you mention would be aunt's death, right? If it's not, it's time to overthink your priorities, imho. |

Q: Mr Corbyn - do you condemn the massacre of 6 million Jews in the Holocaust. A: I condemn all acts of violence. Q: Mr Corbyn - do you condemn random rocket attacks on Jewish civilians in Israel? A: I condemn all acts of violence. Q: Mr Corbyn, do you oppose anti-semitism. A: Naturally I condemn all forms of racist discrimination, as do all my friends in the SS Totenkopf division.

They didn't start the TV news with this tragedy in Switzerland, in fact they even didn't speak about it. I just read this information in the free newspaper (length of one line) If you spend some time in the world of newsrooms, you will realize that there is more dignity on the sidewalks of red districts. |

Since the question of politics has come up, it should be noted that Ms Franklin's father was a major figure in the civil rights movement and a personal and professional friend of Martin Luther King, Jr., and Ms Franklin was active and outspoken both in the civil rights movement and as a feminist. As a parting insult the right wing loons at Faux Noise offered a eulogy and displayed a photo of Patti LaBelle:

Massive tribute to Aretha on my local BBC Radio station today .
They've talked of nowt else . The queen of our souls as Paul McCartney described her . Strange then that they never mentioned her or played any of her records in the last couple of years I've listened to that station before she died ? Strange that . |

National Radio 2 usually is the place to hear tributes to dead singers with DJ's Ken Bruce and Steve Wright the ones to do so, but there are alot of radio stations that don't like that sort of music so won't play it. As I type this Trevor Nelson, sitting in for Ken Bruce is playing three of her songs in tribute.
Noticed that Sir Patrick Stewart has left the Labour Party thanks to Jeremy Corbyn. |

Jeremy Vine had a tribute to her. It was embarassing in its banality.
