Agony Auntie: A fair reason to bash the BBC

The nice thing about not having an irrational hatred of the BBC is that you're allowed to praise it when it's good and slag it off when it's bad. Jennie has done sterling work delving into the rather unpleasant world of 'Slink', a Beeb-managed website which, while ostensibly claiming to offer advice and information for teenagers, actually says some pretty pathetic things.

Now as any journo knows, those people writing in with the serious problems may well have been made up. But the advice should be genuine, in case readers have genuine issues and are looking for answers. If this is just shallow entertainment, then fine, but what are our tax pounds doing funding a site that takes the piss out of kids' problems?

Look Auntie, perhaps you could take some good advice from people who don't hate you. This site's shit; do something about it. Your enemies - and yes, the Mail will get hold of this story and rip you to shit about it - won't be so forgiving.
