Is this really one of the supposed greatest thinkers of right wing politics?

Everything else is irrelevant.
If you’re asking me if I agree with Lozza’s comments, I don’t, I am just pointing out the rank hypocrisy that exists in this thread, other broadcasters abysmal failings, but GBNews bad.

Laurence Fox’s behaviour was objectively wrong. Dan Wooton’s behaviour was objectively wrong. A news programme employing a card-carrying, office-holding member of the Conservative Party to interview a Conservative government minister is objectively wrong. Nothing the BBC has ever done makes it right.
Wrong. Hiding a nonce should have seen the end off the BBC or the law requiring a license to watch TV.

If it’s ‘whataboutery’ then so be it.
