    Out of interest and for the record, with regard to the most recent midweek thread and a comment from Sir Arthur Strebe-Grebling placed on biasedbbc.tv on July 30, 2014 at 9.30 am regarding BBC article ‘How many men are paedophiles?’ I made a comment at 02.44 pm, having just seen the page was showing two photos of Christian priests, to the effect that I thought this wasn’t very multicultural. I just checked the same BBC web page today and find that now there’s only one photo of Christian priests on view but the ‘updated’ page has been timed: ’30 July 2014 Last updated at 00.34′.
    I’m amazed … are they really miracle workers at the BBC? I’m thinking of changing my religion. Hail the almighty BBC, time travellers extraordinary!
    By the way, although I know we shouldn’t expect anything better from the BBC, is it legal for them to amend and predate web pages in order to ‘disappear’ anything that might appear embarrassing? If they can do it on this occasion then what else are they amending for their own convenience? I know what was on the page when I commented. Sir Arthur Strebe-Grebling, if you’re there or anyone else who saw the two photos, I’d love to know your thoughts about this.
    The BBC really is the definition of a sickening organisation.

              What is Islamophobic about saying that Muslim leaders in the UK are doing far too little to combat the extremism in their communities, that they are not helping assimilation enough, that they promote medieval sharia concepts especially against women, and that many of them push the victimhood line far too much.

                Stop wriggling. There is absolutely no way on earth you would make similar statements about leaders in the Jewish community. No matter what. No matter when. If anyone dared do so the outrage here would be seismic but Islam is always fair game.

                  Bollox. I have not seen anything done wrong – or actions omitted – by leaders of any other communities in Britain – Jewish or any other religion. But we have seen slippery statements by Muslim leaders, lack of real action to curb extremism, toleranced by them of far too many extremist preachers – and always the victimhood whining as an excuse for their lack of forthright actions, effective actions.

                  Also – none of the other religions represent a coercive anti-democratic ideology. Islam is exactly that, and it is blind to deny it.

    BBC radio 4 ‘Sunday’ is a text book example of left wing bias on the BBC.

    It’s not so much in what they report as the people they choose to interview, and the topics they choose to discuss.

    Hardly anyone in favour of Israel is allowed to speak, but plenty opposed are invited on.

    Muslims who have had their bank accounts closed on suspicion of supporting terrorism are allowed to deny everything and attack reasonable people as ‘islamophobic, and waycist’.

    The nutcase Bishop of Manchester, a man more interested in Left wing politics than his religion is invited on to press for the immigration of Iraqi Christians forced out by ISIS. He criticises the US & UK for the war in Iraq (which both deserve) but not ISIS for following their Islamic teachings.
    He is also allowed to make ridiculous statements that immigration is good and that it ‘enriches’ us.

    It’s as if the BBC cannot see another view, and that if it could, that view must not be allowed airtime, as it is so dangerous.

    It’s the denial of the ‘Oxygen of publicity’ which at the time of the Thatcher government it criticised so much !

    A relief to the BBC in that-on this one occasion thus far-Hamas turn out to have been more correct in their story that the IDF.
    One to Hamas-according to the rather sick world of the BBC-and, therefore;” in your face Bibi”!
    That`s how the BBC/Hamas choose to report the tragic death of young lads fighting for their country in trying to defend it.
    Imagine how the BBC would weep if a few of our jihadist teenagers got killed fighting for OUR country-yes, the umma and Caliphate of Islam…est 1989(Rushdie Rules)…secured 2013(Rigby Revisions).

      And a reality surely not completely beyond the realms of possibility. Otherwise, the BBC’s stance on much that passes for news at home and abroad would be rather inexplicable. I do hear his ‘detector men’ could teach Capita a thing or two about enforcement.

    In the spirit of balance, I stumbled across this just now and felt it worth a share:
    http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4553643,00.html
    Her initial report was of course one that did get turned into a cause celebre for journalism not toeing the Bowen ‘I didn’t see or hear anything therefore it couldn’t have happened unless my minders tell me’ line pushed by the vast majority of the MSM in Gaza as guests of Hamas or with relatives they can reach.
    Seems she’s not happy, and has been moved to explain why.
    Fair enough.
    Ignoring many questions that occur on ‘how close is not close enough’ and the odd level of subsequent retraction when such rare stories do make it out (the translated captions to her video report do suggest she went a bit further than how she explained it in her distancing piece, and is regretting it made it to public domain to get picked up), I merely ponder the precedent to her ‘don’t use me as propaganda’ plea that is in turn being pushed now as slightly irony-free counters to any seeing her initial report quoted.
    It would be interesting to hear from the BBC on where they see the ‘use’ of ‘reports’ moving from reflecting news to propaganda.
    Guessing they may need to be a wee bit careful as they are not immune from citing stuff, especially quotes, as and when it suits.

        I think it was more she heard it, very loud, just outside, and mentioned that as part of the overall report.
        Then the figurative, social media world fell in on her.
        Some sources quoted what she testified to as it was a bit unusual, especially given her background, compared to such as the BBC’s finest, who are experienced enough to know what you don’t say as much as what you do. Hence the thousands of rcokets launched that have escaped Jezza’s eagle eyes and bat ears.
        Feel a bit sorry for her (and any rellies), but she did choose the profession, the topic and went to air.
        It became (bad) propaganda when it served the interests of a group other than the one intended, as opposed to the rest of her report, which was ne…. good propaganda.
        Apparently.
        Lessons have probably been learned.

      Rather amazed that some department or another did not have to run this by another first, and by now a rather crucial aspect of the hog roast process did not raise a few re.. black flags with squiggles.
      But happen it did, it must surely be accepted. A bit like the rocket launch happened but how it got shared ran away from that reporterette’s carefully nurtured comfort zone. Latter pretty serious on a variety of levels. Former just funny across the board (though for various reasons unlikely to be deemed comedic by such as HIGNFY, as A. Newsroom Script Editor will doubtless attest), other than for those who don’t have a funny bone that hasn’t been surgically removed when hatched..
      Making the resident knee jerk’s attempt to skirt round that basic fact to meet quota even more bizarre than usual.

      Whilst I also smiled at the thought that the Muslim staff should keep their windows shut – I would also like to know who is paying for this BBC party, who is being invited and what is the bar bill. I think we should be told if it is our money that is being spent.

        Well, classier than the usual drugs of choice there at the BBC.
        AND-to insult Allahs little helpers yet more…there`d have been the waft of booze as well-we pay for that too!

        It was round the corner from my workplace, and several of us went down on Friday lunchtime.

        There was no bar. There were a number of market-style food stalls, with Caribbean jerk chicken, a Hummus Bros stall, somebody selling chutneys and preserves, Costa giving away samples of their iced coffees. Apart from those small samples, everything was chargeable. The hog roast rolls were £5 – expensive even by central London standards – but they were delicious.

        We weren’t the only non-BBC employees enjoying the chance to sample fresh food that is a welcome change from the coffee shops and supermarket “express” shops that dominate the area.

        So, not a big thing. Although it doesn’t take much for Biased BBC to foment a sense of outrage and go off the deep end, I’ll grant you.

    Apologies for the on topic post and URLs in amidst the Sunday denial of service ran… blessings, but this seems interesting:

    Mr. E was one of the first experts trotted out, and despite professing undying love for the BBC, did then come out with a spirited collection of statements that had most of the committee suffering a fit of the vapours.
    So far, he seems about the only witness called not there simply to sign off on how much they get via means the public can no longer avoid.
    So I kinda like/d his style.
    This goes a wee bit further, and reminds me to check the latest transcripts when a moment presents.

    Because he doesn’t mince his words about the integrity of our market rate masters, from headline onwards.
    ‘I have chosen to call them lies, because there is not the slightest attempt to present any kind of balanced picture. It is a bad faith exercise, and deserves the strongest epithet in condemning it.’
    That these are the folk gunning for £4B pa or more of public money as long as they can get it, without chance of opting out any more, and no accountability for what they do with it, I remain with concerns that what they say or do is so often at variance with reality.
    To the level, apparently, of forty times at least from just one of them writing one policy essay.
    Trust in the BBC seems a leap of faith some are prepared to take, but on hard facts past and present, that faith seems blind at best.

    Help me here, Scott, for somebody who claims to have absolutely no links to the bBC, you appear to have known about a roasting at the bBC and even managed to get your hands on a Pork roll at the event.

      The second and third sentences of this bBBC report pander to nearly all their favourite groups, although they don’t mention disabled people.
      And what is a ‘culturally-matched donor’, whose sperm will be available to those from ethnic minorites? Will those from the ethnic majority be able to reject sperm from wankers who were black or ‘Asian’?
