LBC - Leading Brtain's Condescension

Forever leading Britain's condescension,
every story is an ace in the hole.
Peddling propaganda by repetition,
uniformity of thought is their goal.
By open invitation a new caller -
not as articulate as the broadcaster -
raises a sensible and cogent point.
An alternative thesis out of joint
with the monopoly of truth prevailing.
This unleashes scorn and belittlement,
tuts and sighs are added to the torment;
the host turns boorish and starts complaining.
In short, Peter Dale Scott's 'conspiracy
of denial' from this false clerisy.

Author's Note
First Draft.

There is a talk radio station in the UK called LBC; this is my take on it. I've also used the Pushkin sonnet form again with rhyme scheme aBaBccDDeFFeGG with lower case being feminine ending, upper masculine and five feet per line (supposedly iambs but ... I need more practice).

One reference that no one has mentioned is the 'Ace in the Hole' line ... I got this from https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0043338/
