Savers protest against the Bank of England in fight for bigger pension payouts
FED-UP savers took to the streets yesterday to demand action to protect pensioners from the impact of five years of record low interest rates.
Members of the group Save Our Savers staged a mock funeral outside the Bank of England to mark the loss of billions of pounds in income from their nest eggs.
The protest came as the Bank's Monetary Policy Committee voted to keep interest rates at 0.5 per cent.
The campaigners, who carried the "coffin of the UK saver", want help for the thrifty who have been responsible enough to put money aside for their old age.
They calculate that low interest rates, coupled with the eroding effect of inflation, have cost savers a total of £326.3billion over the past five years. The average saver with a pot of £100,000 has lost more than £4,000 a year.
Simon Rose, spokesman for Save Our Savers, said: "We tried to deliver the coffin to the Bank's governor, Mark Carney, but were refused admission.
Savers have seen their incomes disappear by stealth over the past five years. I hope we have managed to highlight the appalling effect this policy of low interest rates has had
"Savers have seen their incomes disappear by stealth over the past five years. I hope we have managed to highlight the appalling effect this policy of low interest rates has had. It has distorted the economy."
Mr Rose and other critics say that while homeowners have benefited from low mortgage rates, the Bank's policy has had a devastating impact on the lives of savers and eroded Britain's savings culture.
In March 2009, savers could put their money in an easy access account paying 3.35 per cent. Today they would have to lock their cash away for seven years to get that sort of return.
Rachel Springall, of price comparison website Moneyfacts, said: "Savers are the ones who pay the price when interest rates are low. Even when rates start to rise in the future, banks may not pass on the full increase."
Many economists do not expect the Bank of England to raise rates until late 2015 or 2016, and even then Mr Carney has made it clear that increases will be gradual.
Yet the low rate policy has not been fair for all. The Bank's own figures show that borrowers with a £100,000 standard variable mortgage have saved around £19,000 because their repayments are now about £3,300 a year lower than in early 2008.
Savers with £100,000 in cash ISAs, on the other hand, have lost £18,500 over the same period.
Pensions adviser Dr Ros Altmann said the policy sent out the message: "You're a mug to save".
She added: "Rates should have been raised. We need a signal that the Bank of England is on top of the situation. People are being encouraged to take on debt.
It's irresponsible. Living for today is how we got into this economic mess.
Have we not learned anything? The policy has rewarded borrowers and punished savers."
The pensioners' plight has been highlighted in the Daily Express Respect For The Elderly crusade.
Those on a fixed income have been particularly badly hit.
More than five million rely on savings for over half their income, says the National Pensioners Convention.
General secretary Dot Gibson said: "Since the recession began, pensioners have seen their income devastated.
Now they are struggling to survive the rising cost of living and there doesn't appear to be an end in sight."

After a preseason event last year, the Drone Racing League (DRL) announced a six-race circuit to be held in 2016. DRL enlists top drone pilots from around the world to compete in obstacle course style races using custom made drones that can travel at speeds up to 80 MPH. According to the DRL website, courses will include locations at abandoned malls, NFL stadiums, and subway tunnels. The season ending World Championship will also feature an iconic backdrop unveiled later this season.
The drones used by the pilots are state of the art, built with custom designs from the DRL in-house team of engineers. One of the most compelling aspects of the drones is that each pilot will maneuver his or her drone with FPV (First Person View) flight. What this means is that each pilot will fly the drone as though he or she is in the cockpit of the drone. The drones have special cameras attached to them that feed directly into the goggles of the pilots.
This camera operation is great not only for the pilots, but also for the viewing audience that can tap into any pilot's camera feed at any time during the race. These advanced standardized drones (known as the DRL Racer 2) create a level competitive playing field that also gives the drones the ability to fly around barriers and through challenging courses. Each drone is also equipped with over 100 color changing LEDs to enable the audience to distinguish the drones.
The DRL will work this season by maximizing each of the 5 regular season events, culminating in the 6th event being the World Championship. Each of the 5 regular season events will have three stages: Qualifiers, Semi-finals, and Finals. Pilots will earn more points as they advance through the events, and they will earn the most points if they win the Finals of an event. Pilots who finish the regular season with the most points are invited to the World Championship.
The regular season events feature massive venues, equipped with steep flights of stairs, tight turns, and narrow tunnels. Checkpoints and gates will also be featured at each race. If pilots fail to pass through a checkpoint or gate in a race, points will be deducted, regardless of finishing time.
The Drone Racing League produced a riveting short film featuring last year's preseason event, "The Gates of Hell". The video depicts the drama that is expected to unfold during the 2016 regular season. The Drone Racing League also released a teaser to the first race of the season "Miami Lights" and some video already surfaced about what is in store for the fans. It should come as no surprise that one of the first drone races is being held in Miami's Sun Life Stadium, after it was reported last August that Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross invested $1 million dollars from his co-founded venture capital firm RSE Ventures. The release date for the first episode of the season will be February 22.
The DRL is looking to take parts of all aspects of tech and sports to create one incredibly blended professional sports league. DRL is taking elements of the video game sport industry, which continues to grow in viewership and popularity, and combining it with parts of the traditional sporting world of racing. Together, DRL has created a perfect mix, which will have the opportunity to attract both gamers and traditional sports fans alike. Furthermore, DRL has hit a home run by giving viewers the opportunity to watch each event from both the FPV cameras that each pilot is wearing as well as with a standard eye view from cameras set up in the racing venue.

As Singh has already announced his retirement plans post-elections, this forthcoming parliament session will be his last as PM.
Speaking to reporters after an all-party meet ahead of the parliament session, the prime minister said: "This is going to be the last session of the 15th Lok Sabha. There is important legislation which is pending for approval by parliament.
"There is important legislation relating to anti-corruption measures. There is important legislation with regard to Women's Reservation Bill. There is important business concerning the control of communal violence," he added.
He said: "I sincerely hope that parliament, in its wisdom, will transact the essential business which is the primary concern of any legislature in a parliamentary democracy. And, of course, there is the vital issue of Telangana."
The prime minister said the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government wants to bring the Telangana Bill in parliament for its approval.
"I sincerely hope that after a long debate extending over many years, the house will, in its wisdom, be able to transact the business and pass the Bill relating to the creation of the state of Telangana," the prime minister added.
The parliament session will begin Wednesday and end Feb 21.
The prime minister's remarks assume significance as Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Kiran Kumar Reddy, who is opposed to the division of the state, is planning to meet President Pranab Mukherjee on the issue. The Andhra chief minister is in Delhi.

Kia Optima PHEV review
Kia wants to re-position its Mondeo-sized Optima model as a contender that more and more buyers consider in this segment, hence the second generation range's headline-making inclusion of Plug-in petrol electric power.
Performance: 60%
Handling: 60%
Comfort: 80%
Space: 70%
Styling: 80%
Build: 80%
Value: 80%
Equipment: 80%
Economy: 90%
Depreciation: 60%
Insurance: 60%
Yes, the CRDi diesel version is a more obvious choice but look closely at what's on offer with this Plug-in derivative and you could find yourself seduced with its clever technology.
It does, after all, offer one of the longest all-electric driving range figures in the segment, plus the up-front asking price is a lot lower than that of its most direct Plug-in rival, Volkswagen's Passat GTE.
Driving Experience
The Optima Plug-in Hybrid is powered by a 9.8 kWh lithium-polymer battery pack paired with a 50 kW electric motor, allowing it to operate in pure-electric mode for up to 33 miles at speeds as high as 75mph, placing this KIa among the leaders in the Mondeo-class D-segment for pure-electric range.
The innovative powertrain employs Kia's efficient 2.0-litre 'Nu' four-cylinder GDI engine at its core, which on its own generates 156PS and the 189Nm of torque. The engine is coupled with the electric motor, which allows the car to operate in charge-sustaining mode once the battery runs out of charge.
The powertrain's total power output is 205PS, with the application of the electric motor facilitating immediate engine response to throttle inputs. With the addition of electric power, the Plug-in Hybrid's total torque output is a high 375Nm, so you shouldn't want from grunt through the gears.
Power is applied to the road through the front wheels via a smooth-shifting six-speed automatic gearbox. The 62mph from rest sprint time occupies 9.4s. As for handling, well there will be more involving cars in this segment you could consider, but you'll be buying this car for its technology, not to throw it around.
Design and Build
You'll have to look closely to visually identify this Plug-in Hybrid Optima model from its diesel stablemates. This petrol/electric variant gets special chrome trim with a clean metallic blue finish for the rear bumper, grille surround and wheel arches, as well as special 'EcoPlugin' badging. The charging port is integrated into the driver-side front wing. There's a choice of both saloon and 'Sportswagon' estate bodystyles.
The Optima Plug-in Hybrid offers a high level of safety from its lightweight, high-strength body and high levels of passive and active safety, with the maximum possible five-star Euro NCAP safety rating. The bodyshell benefits from the extensive application of Advanced High-Strength Steel, which makes up 51% of the body. This has been used to reinforce the car's A and B pillars, side sills, roof, floor pan and front wheel arches.
The neat integration of the batteries behind the rear seat and in the spare wheel well, along with a 15-litre reduction in the car's petrol tank, means the Optima PHEV is still able to offer a generous 307 litres of luggage space. The model also gets Kia's latest audio-visual navigation functionality, with an 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system featuring DAB digital radio. The monitor features a series of menus to show car's current EV range, as well as a useful function to locate nearby charging stations. Buyers can also sync in their smartphones using the Apple CarPlay or Android Auto systems.
Market and Model
At present, this PHEV derivative comes only as a saloon. You'll need a budget of around £31,500 to get yourself this Optima Plug-in Hybrid - that's one the useful £2,500 government Plug-in car grant is subtracted from the initially off-putting asking price. That might seem a lot given that a decently-specced Optima diesel costs only around £25,000 but it still undercuts a rival Volkswagen Passat GTE Plug-in hybrid by around £2,500.
You get a wide range of electronic safety features too, things like Advanced Smart Cruise Control, Autonomous Emergency Braking, High Beam Assist, a Lane Keeping Assist System, Blind Spot Detection and Rear Cross Traffic Alert. Plus of course all the usual features you'd expect to find on a car of this class, things like alloy wheels, dual-projection headlamps with static cornering lights and LED daytime running lights, UV-reducing tinted solar glass, auto headlamps and wipers, heated power-folding mirrors, front and rear parking sensors as well as an alarm.
Inside, there's a 7-inch infotainment screen incorporating satellite navigation, a six-speaker DAB stereo, Bluetooth phone compatibility and a reversing camera. Plus dual automatic air conditioning, USB and Aux-in ports, cruise control with a speed limiter, powered lumbar support for the driver's seat, an auto-dimming rear view mirror, a leather-trimmed multi-function steering wheel, a trip computer and a clever automatic defogging system.
Cost of Ownership
Huge efforts have been made with this car to try and achieve a best-in class efficiency showing - hence the quoted 37g/km CO2 showing and the faintly unbelievable 176.6mpg combined cycle fuel showing. Take, for example, the range of enhancements supposed to improve aerodynamic efficiency. When the car's neat active air flap grille is activated, the drag coefficient is reduced to just 0.25 Cd. Reprofiled front and rear bumpers enable more efficient air-flow over the body of the car, thanks to a more aerodynamically efficient design.
Inside, the Optima Plug-in Hybrid features a series of enhancements to reflect the innovative nature of the car and its powertrain. A neat driver instrument cluster displays key information about the Plug-in Hybrid powertrain - such as the battery's state of charge - as well as details on driving style, highlighting where a driver can drive more efficiently so as to extend that 33 mile all-electric driving range figure. As usual with Kia models, this one gets a long 7-year/100,000 mile warranty as standard.
We can understand why Kia didn't offer hybrid technology in the first generation version of this Optima. Back then, it didn't really offer enough to prise buyers away from diesel power. With Plug-in power though, things are different. No, it won't really work for high mileage company buyers - or those without access to garage charging facilities. For everyone else though, this is a car that might well make sense if you can make the ongoing figures work for you and finance the slightly higher up-front asking price. It's nice to see this approach provided more cost-effectively in this segment.

Wow Margo!
I used to have students from BHS and BTC intern with me. Hell I went to school there and sat on the advisory committee for the Tech Center's Computer System's course. If anything, I am proof that marijuana does not impede a student's ability to thrive. I am doing beyond well for myself - and I grew up in poverty and illiterate until age 10! I would love the opportunity to come and speak about this someday.
wow Bob - seems you don't like migrant people very much. You know this guy was MARRIED in the US, worked and paid TAXES in the US and has CHILDREN in the US. So - what's your talking point other than bigotry?
lol trendy downtown location.
these guys are great!
Well maybe if seven days diddnt blog about an author of theirs electing fairpoint because it was cheaper - maybe bt would be doing a tiny bit better.
what the hell is a glass ceiling?
Alright guys,
Enough with this CCTA nonsense. We the consumers have the right to strike back against the union, and the company.
I propose that if there is any bit of decency in you as a human being you consider Boycotting CCTA once services are restored. People are losing jobs because of lack of transportation, it has also incurred travel expenses that folks cannot afford - this is unacceptable. The union is hurting us the folks that depend on their services to go to work, school and live our lives.
WE MUST boycott their services, and hurt them where their wallet is - just like they have done to us.
If CCTA were to lose enough passengers say 40% it would have a disastrous effect on the company's ability to pay their employees and continue operations.
Their business model requires two things for them to stay afloat, money from tax payers, and fares from passengers. Let's take a big cut out of their pie and send a message to all parties involved so they know the public finds this juvenile bickering and disagreement unacceptable.

Ashe Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Chapter 1
Ashe is a champion which should be played by slowing your enemies so that they can't reach you and you don't let them hit you.
Most of the players playing Ashe pick Volley rank 5 on level 9 but the reason I prefer playing Ashe with Frost shot is that your Volley applies Frost shot to the enemies you hit with it. The damage you lose from Volley is not that big so it's not a big problem for you to play her with Frost shot. But when you slow your enemies it's easy to run away when you're in danger and also easy to pick up some kills when your enemies can't run away becouse they're slowed.

"It's not just a bunch of guys climbing along some jungle gym and going through tunnels and shooting their guns in the air, ... These are people who are thinking through problems in how to cause destruction, for a well-thought-through political strategy."
"I'm not going to kid you that if you walk into the jungle, you won't find a single poppy. But it would only be one of a few plants grown by an addict for personal consumption. Commercial cultivation is over."

I don't tell the boys when we approach a visit with their sister.
Part of this stems from the true joy I have in surprising my sons with just about everything under the sun. I absolutely love watching their faces when they either realize where we're going or what is about to happen… or the sheer joy when I pull off a 100% shocking surprise. Oh, that's my favorite.
I should note that I loathe surprises and if my parents had done this to me I'd probably require more therapy than I already do. I thought maybe working surprises into the boys' lives might help in that regard. Parenting is a crapshoot at best, and they seem to like it. So we stick with it.
And part of it stems from a few smaller known issues.
Plans can change. When plans change, feelings can get hurt and emotions can run high. While our home is a safe space for big emotions, I really try to avoid letting them down. I hold enough guilt for how my actions well before they were born continue to let them down in a number of ways. I acknowledge that the whole "letting down" thing is going to happen in their lives, but I try to minimize it where and when I can. I mean, I also regularly let them down because I'm a boring curmudgeon of a mother. You know, there's that.
There's their excitement and, hand in hand with that, anxiety. "Is she here yet," quickly escalates to an argument over who gets to sit next to her in the car. (Meanwhile, the both do, because she sits in the middle.) While some might see that as sibling rivalry extending into our unique family unit, I recognize my sons' personalities and anxieties for what they are: They worry they won't get enough one-on-one time with their sister. Gut punch.
Lastly, a totally selfish reason: I'm anxious enough about visits for approximately eleven billion reasons. Do I have enough food and snacks and drinks for everyone? Is the house clean enough? How many times will Callie excitedly pee on the floor? How much is too much? How much is not enough? How do we fit in all I want to do? Is there enough down time for a bunch of introverts and Nicholas? How do I properly process my emotions on the fly during a visit? How hard will the boys crash emotionally on Sunday when they leave? How hard will I crash on Sunday night when the boys go to sleep?
And so on.
I no longer fret about what to wear. I did realize last visit that we only take them to the same restaurants every time, so we're gonna change it up a little bit this time around. But my brain can spin out of control if I let it. When the boys aren't asking me eleventy billion questions about the visit, I have time and space to breathe, to make room for the emotions that are not only allowed to exist but continue to help push me toward some semblance of healing and peace.
Every single time I mindfully enter into a visit with an attitude of humble acceptance instead of anxious expectancy, I feel a growth and a change inside my soul. Oh, it's still hard as fuck when she leaves. There's no sugar-coating that truth. But I've noticed when I take that purposeful approach to a visit and practice some good self-care before hand, good things happen somewhere deep inside where things lay buried.
Remind me of this on Friday afternoon. I'm also hoping to snap reactionary photos of the boys seeing their sister, which should be at two totally separate times thanks to baseball (which has us at the field Monday through Saturday this year, folks!). For the past year and a half, I have witnessed that all on my own. I'm hoping to capture it this time. It's truly a thing of beauty—something we worked hard to make a safe space for all.
Progress. She happens, especially after a period of hard, dark personal growth. Spring is here, and there is light.

Ask your friends to walk with you. Being outside for a nice hike can be a great way of getting exercise. Try going to a dance class to learn new ways to work out.
Prior to engaged in an invigorating exercise regimen, follow a carbohydrate weighty dish. Carbohydrates will energy the body and provide you with the energy you should get by your work out.

It is wise to use weights initially, barbells secondly, and equipment final. Your smaller sized muscle groups will get tired the easiest and you should obtain the free weights taken care of initially given that they use those tiny muscle groups. When working with a device last, your smaller muscles will not be as required as they have been with hand weights and barbells.
To recoup quicker from hefty exercising, conduct a gentle work out the very next day, that handles exactly the same muscle group. About this second day, focus on really low dumbbells, which can be about fifteen percent of your own picking up capacity as well as two quick sets of 20-several reps. Your own muscles will heal speedier since they will get far more bloodstream and nutrients running by way of them.
For the best is a result of weight instruction exercises, be sure you restriction these people to at most an hour. Soon after you've worked out for 60 minutes or lengthier, your system commences generating cortisol. This stress hormonal can block producing testosterone and lead to muscles wasting.

Gradually put a couple of minutes of turn back movements into every single work out to really notice the burn and find out final results.
Do numerous squats and deadlifts should you be looking to obtain a six-pack. Studies have shown that undertaking most of these exercises pressure abdominal muscles to do a lot more work, making you obtain muscles there. As well as supplying you with a 6 squats, load and deadlifts are good for your healthy posture.
When returning from a physical injury, newborn the wounded muscle tissue a little when returning in your program. Getting delicate on the hurt muscle tissue, but nonetheless working it, will assist the process of recovery together. Even little dosages of exercising boosts air and bloodstream degrees in injured regions, as well as expands limited muscles.
Deciding to lose weight is your own personal challenge. You will find it much simpler and much less lonely if you get support from those you love. Sometimes, you won't feel like working out or will want someone to give you support. Do not give in to the allure of the snack cake.

FORT WORTH, Texas -- After Happy Hour Saturday, it's advantage Johnson.
Jimmie Johnson topped the speed chart in the final practice session before Sunday's Dickies 500, a whopping 30 spots ahead of Jeff Gordon.
Gordon wasn't pleased with his No. 24 Chevy, posting a best lap of 181.935 mph. Johnson's No. 48 Chevrolet turned a lap at 186.981 mph on the 1.5-mile Texas Motor Speedway oval.
Gordon has a slight advantage at the green flag, starting on the outside of Row 1. Johnson starts three rows behind him. Gordon, who has a nine-point lead over Johnson, hopes to lead a lap early and get the five bonus points.
Johnson holds the advantage for results at TMS. Johnson's 10.25 average finish is the best of any driver who has at least eight Cup starts at Texas.
Gordon's average TMS finish of 15.8 isn't bad, but it's one spot from the bottom on his list. Lowe's Motor Speedway is the only track where Gordon has a worse average (16.8) finish than Texas.
But average finish can be misleading. Gordon was leading the spring race at TMS when he brushed the wall coming out of Turn 4 with 23 laps to go. He finished ninth.
Johnson was involved in an accident at TMS in April and finished 38th, the first time he had finished worse than 11th at Texas.

Every religion imbibes of different tradition and culture and each one has its own importance. Among all of them, Hindu religion stands on the first position and when the occasion is wedding, one will be short of words to describe how grand it is in terms of tradition. The first thing that comes into mind, when a marriage date is fixed of our loved ones or our own is Mehandi. Not only bride but the groom as well is not left untouched with the pure aroma of mehndi. Applying the bridal mehendi, especially to the bride is believed to be an integral and major part of the wedding because as per the belief Mehandi bestows the life of the bride with lots of prosperity, encircles with the hue of happiness and best wishes for her newly married life. The Bridal mehandi is truly special in every terms and one of its kind in comparison to that of any one else. To become a bride with beauty, is the dream of every girl.
Bridal Mehandi is such a mirror that truly reflects your regal legacy, culture, tradition, society in it. From floral theme to leafy strokes, from subtle designs to the intricate ones all falls under one roof depending upon the choice of the bride. Not only hands and legs but applying mehandi in the form of tattoo has also been added to bridal mehandi designing list because it gives her an ultra modern look. It is a true work of art.

Though every sort of mehandi pattern are distinct in their own ways depending upon their designing but bridal mehandi is completely unique.

Williams: media reforms will affect all Australians1:00
The government's media bills must be rejected because they affect democracy and every Australian, says News Limited CEO Kim Williams.
TELEVISION and newspaper bosses have demanded federal MPs reject proposed media changes, warning they would put at risk what Australians can watch and read.
In dramatic scenes in Canberra yesterday, Channel 7 owner Kerry Stokes blasted the plans as "draconian'', News Limited boss Kim Williams said they were undemocratic and Fairfax chief Greg Hywood said the Government was seeking to impose a "nuclear option'' on its critics.
Victorian Labor leader Daniel Andrews indicated he also was against the media changes, in a fresh blow to the Gillard Government.
As Julia Gillard's critics inside Labor claimed the legislation was a test of her authority and leadership, the Prime Minister said she was open to "sensible suggestions''.
After talks between Ms Gillard and independent MP Rob Oakeshott broke down and he told the PM in writing he would not support any of the six media reform Bills, the Government was last night "actively considering'' a compromise plan by Greens leader Christine Milne to "save'' the legislation.
The Greens said they would vote with Labor if legislation were changed to "better define'' a proposed public interest test, protect regional news and allow only two existing press councils.
Mr Stokes, chairman of Seven West Media, said the Media Advocate at the centre of the changes was a "sledgehammer'' with power beyond that of the Tax Commissioner.
He told a snap Senate inquiry that in his 40 years in the media "I have never seen anything so intrusive ... can only recall legislation in this haste in the wake of 9/11''.
"The legislation is in my opinion draconian,'' he said.
Mr Williams said News Limited, which owns the Herald Sun, would mount a High Court challenge if the laws were passed.
"In the event that these laws are passed we will immediately be seeking leave to appeal to the High Court,'' he told the committee.
"These Bills breach constitutional rights, equate to direct government intervention and regulation of the media, and are a direct attack on free speech, innovation, investment and job creation,'' he said.
"These proposals will affect every Australian and the quality of their democracy. This is bad legislation with a bad process."
Mr Williams released a 20-page open letter to all MPs that he said was a "sober, non-hysterical analysis'' of the problems. He said it was inappropriate the Media Advocate would rule on mergers and oversee reporting standards.
Mr Hywood, whose company, Fairfax, owns The Age, said the regulatory powers would have "too many dangers in the long term'' and would "shut down'' a news organisation.
"This is a nuclear option,'' he said.
He said the Advocate wouldn't be independent, as ministers appointed those who reflected their views.
Ten Network's Hamish McLennan said more regulation was not needed, while Foxtel's Richard Freudenstein objected to "flawed'' legislation.
Communications Minister Stephen Conroy said the Advocate would not look over the shoulder of media or rule on complaints.
"The Advocate's job is simply to say: does the Press Council uphold its own standards?
"The Advocate has no role in setting those standards.''
Labor senator and committee chairman Doug Cameron referred to the phone hacking scandal in the UK.
"I find it absolutely breathtaking to be lectured by the Murdoch press about the privacy laws,'' he said.
Mr Williams said two independent inquiries had found no such activity had taken place in Australia.
Victorian Opposition Leader Daniel Andrews expressed reservations about the media changes.
"I ... believe freedom of the press is integral to our democracy,'' he said.
"People are right to take a free press and free speech very seriously. I certainly do.''
Premier Denis Napthine said he had severe misgivings.
"I am flabbergasted that the Federal Government would want to curtail the free speech in the media of this state,'' he said.
TV bosses were at odds at a separate inquiry looking at abolishing the "75 per cent reach'' rule that prevented network broadcasting to more than three-quarters of the population.
Nine Network chief David Gyngell, whose company wanted to buy the Southern Cross network if the rule was axed, said it was outdated, owing to the internet.
"I wouldn't allow the 75 per cent rule to be removed without the certainty of the high-quality news content viewers currently receive,'' he said, adding that regional journalists would keep their jobs.
Other networks oppose the change.
The Senate committee is due to hand down an interim report on Wednesday, while the joint select committee will report on the reach rule on Tuesday.
