Black Mirror writer and Screen Wipe presenter Charlie Brooker appeared on Newsnight where he spoke to presenter Emily Maitlis about the problem with watching too much news.
But it’s a perfectly valid thing to want escapism at this time, it’s valid, it’s important.
Matlis also asked whether Brooker thought it was important in these difficult times for the media to be patriotic.
But that’s not the same thing as blindly supporting the government or blindly opposing it either.”
