‘Doom mongering every day!’ rage BBC Breakfast fans as they boycott show – swiping ‘not a chance I’ll watch’
BBC BREAKFAST viewers have taken a swipe at the show as they threatened to switch off over ‘doom mongering every day’.
The flagship programme was back on air at 6am for a brand new week with Sally Nugent and Jon Kay at the helm.
Both hosts brought viewers the latest news from across the country and world while Carol Kirkwood was live from the Chelsea Flower Show.
But as Jon, 54, posted what’s to come this week he was bombarded by unhappy viewers.
Posting on X, formerly Twitter, he wrote: “A big week of news ahead. Infected blood inquiry.
“Inflation figures. Migration figures. Post Office Inquiry. Covid Inquiry.
“#BBCBreakfast will have all the details and analysis you need. Please join us on the UK’s most-watched breakfast show.”
In a swipe at the seasoned presenter, one BBC Breakfast fan said: “Give us some good news for a change Jon.”
A second wrote: “Not a chance in hell would I watch that show.”
“Is there anything to make us feel joyful,fed up with all the doom mongering that you bombard us with every day,” said a third.
However, some fans did were enthusiastic as one said: “Ooh can hardly wait.”
While another simply posted: “Always.”
Meanwhile, BBC Breakfast fans were left scratching their heads as Naga Munchetty failed to host the show over the weekend.
The show’s business correspondent Nina Warhurst stood in to present alongside Charlie Stayt as no explanation was given for Naga’s absence.
