“This is a dark moment in American history.”
The torrent of abuse, contemptuous mockery and sanctimonious lies continues to flood out of the BBC’s finest…including one senior ‘journalist’ who retweeted a joke about assassinating Trump.
Even Trump’s abstinence from alcohol becomes a vehicle for the BBC to attack him…the chosen headline photo being of another President…Nixon….despite Nixon not being teetotal…
We hear that….’ Mr Trump has eschewed alcohol his whole life, making him a first among modern US presidents. ..His approach to alcohol is also a window into a personality that appears to crave control over others. Mr Trump ordered his children to follow his example. Every day he would drum the message into them: No drugs, no alcohol, no cigarettes. “I’ve been very tough on my children with respect to drink,” he said.’
Seriously? Cheap shot, no pun intended….and bizarre…what father wants his kids to be drug addicts, alcoholics or die of lung cancer…what a bastard that he wants to stop that.
But why did the BBC include Nixon? Nixon is the ‘evil’ President….but look at what the BBC want to put in your mind as they try to manufacture an association between Trump and Nixon…
‘The most disturbing picture of presidential drinking is provided by Richard Nixon, a man prone to morose self-pity who medicated his moods with booze. According to his Secretary of State, Henry Kissinger, Nixon’s trouble was that a small amount of drink would set him off and late-night threats of military action were made when the president was the worse for wear. When North Korea shot down a US spy plane in April 1969, an enraged Nixon allegedly ordered a tactical nuclear strike and told the joint chiefs to recommend targets.’
Richard Nixon was a warning to future presidents on the danger of mixing hubris with drink. He is a reminder too of the awesome executive power a US president has when it comes to conducting foreign affairs.
With no previous political or military experience, Donald Trump is unlike any incoming president. His hubris is clear to all and his (sober) stream of excitable tweets prove an impetuous temperament.
That is a shockingly pompous and sanctimonious piece of drivel that sets out to describe Trump by its obvious attempt at a comparison with a drunken Nixon as some sort of out of control lunatic who will cause a nuclear war in an article supposedly about Trump’s teetotalness….so why compare him to a man whose worst acts may have been conducted under the influence of drink?…it looks like the BBC just invented a narrative in order to do another hatchet job on Trump…once again another bizarre BBC ‘report’ on Trump that goes beyond reason and informed comment and drops decidedly into the realms of the gutter press.
Still just one of many, many BBC pieces that have been spewing out of the fake news factory that is the BBC. There’s lots, lots more…get yourself a brew and pull up a sandbag.
Yesterday I heard Emma Barnett having a nice chat with Vince Cable and the subject of Gove’s initerview with Trump came up…Barnett wanted to know if it was wrong of Gove to have done that interview. Sounded an awful lot like sour grapes from a BBC that would have loved to have that interview…jealousy and of course an opportunity to slip the knife into Brexiteer Gove.
Oddly enough I wasn’t the only one who noticed the BBC’s angst about the Gove interview. Heatstreet has a look at the BBC’s Pravda-like attacks on Trump...The BBC’s Coverage Of Donald Trump’s Rise To Power Has Been Disgraceful
They note, amongst many other deplorable BBC sins…
Such is the skewed mentality that the Conservative MP Michael Gove was attacked for his questions when interviewing Trump for The Times of London. Gove’s questions were pretty straightforward, broadly neutral and covered the main issues that would be of concern to a British readership. But Jo Coburn of the BBC Daily Politics programme felt that Gove should have taken the chance to go on the attack. He was effectively taken to task for not having done so.
They also note Trump’s sober policies and administration…
Trump has assembled a serious team with a serious programme of policies to implement. The BBC should stop emoting and instead offer some sober, rigorous and balanced considerations about the prospects for the free world with its new leader.
The BBC never bothered reporting the many serious interviews about policy that Trump had during the election preferring instead to just go into histrionics about Trump being a racist because of his comments about Mexicans and Muslim immigrants. This approach to reporting Trump still predominates at the BBC as evidenced above and in comments I have heard today and everyday with the inevitable charge of racism being levied at him.
David Keighley at Conservative Woman also notes the BBC’s appalling anti-Trump propaganda…Panorama’s hatchet job on Trump completes its fall from grace.
We have a series of programmes called Trump: The Presidential Precedents which looks at how former Presidents got elected and how they acted in office…I haven’t listened to it but judging by other programmes I can only think the BBC will pick out the bad characters, the disasters and the way ‘vulnerable voters’ were conned and tricked into voting for such Presidents on false promises…and then link all the bad to Trump and use it as a Mystic Meg prediction of what Trump’s Presidency will look like and what its legacy will be….all filtered through the BBC’s own hatred of Trump of course.
There is also a series that brings us the insights and thoughts of US writers on Trump and the future…America Rewritten...so no guesses there as to what we get…a torrid serving of anti-Trump gruel from some angry, bitter and disappointed Lefties….you may or may not be amazed at the vitriol and anger they express towards trump.
The presenter, Robert McCrum, gives us a clue as to what you will hear…
A focus for the opposition to Trump and the challenge of the new administration might be the integrity, candour and good humour of the American mind at its best …and....[there is] great cultural and ideological resilience to defend America’s values with the mobilisation of writers and intellectuals [against Trump]
We heard that Obama was so perfect, so in tune with lefty writer’s values that they didn’t have anything to write about…that has now changed as the world is in peril…how familiar….when Labour was in power the court lap-dogs didn’t bark either.
Oh and just a sample of the new ‘truth’ that we get from the BBC as we were told the conservatives in America have been sidelining Blacks whilst welcoming other races and that there are no more black mayors…hmmm…really? [Never mind the Black President]…
The newly launched African American Mayors Association (AAMA) was established to represent over 500 African American mayors and their 48 million constituents across the United States.
No mayors, 500 mayors. The truth is out there somewhere…which is why the BBC hates the internet.
Fairly obvious the BBC has ferried in a load of left-wing anti-Trump writers to attack him and present him as not only a danger to ‘American values’ but to the world.
Personally I’d have thought Trump exemplified American values, brash, loud, non-PC, independent and not ashamed to be successful…a man who wants to make America great again….American values and character that we know the BBC has always looked down upon.
5Live has also been dragging in the anti-Trump brigade, in this case one they wouldn’t normally touch with a barge pole…the right-wing shock jock Glenn Beck…he doesn’t like Obama but he also hates Trump and paints him as a reckless danger to the world and a racist to boot. All based on what exactly? Nothing. But hang on there’s more. 5Live wanted to know what Beck thought of Brexit….call the cops, MI5 and the SAS….Brexit is an East-Eurasian conspiracy…the Russians have been flooding the UK with money and buying our votes, stealing our democracy…..Leave was nothing less than the useful idiot of Putin who has been controlling our minds and actions for decades now…we all love the EU really.
Not sure that was a winner interview for the BBC.
Not the BBC, but I was truly shocked this evening – on ITV Anglia News referring to the Trump inauguration they included some footage of a Ku Klux Klan rally ending with a close up of a burning cross. Can the media go any lower?
KKK was invented by the Democratic party.
The Democratic party was also against the freeing of their slaves.
And the notoriously racist Alabama Governor George Wallace was a Democrat – something that the lefties always overlook. Or should I say choose to overlook.
Ku Klux Klan members in United States politics.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ku_Klux_Klan_members_in_United_States_politics
And lets not forget hillary’s mate in the KKK, Robert Byrd.
http://www.breitbart.com/2016-presidential-race/2016/08/25/hillary-clinton-friend-mentor-robert-byrd-kkk/
The truth is just so racist, don’t you find?
The one positive ( apart from Brexit and Trump ) is that the media have come out in the open now, no pretence at impartiality, the goal posts have moved in our direction, they won’t move back, rather like Liverpudlians refuse still to buy the Sun after Hillsborough.
The battle is really on now, our enemy is desperate, the gloves are off, yet we are still winning, fabulous times!
I must email toady O’Brien today on LBC today and ask what it’s like to be on the losing side, re Brexit, Trump, tory government, Le Penn, Wilders etc etc!
Always a silver lining somewhere for us to be grateful for. Thanks to Trump a total non-entity called Robert Moore, who seems to have become ITV spokesperson in Washington, is able to add his bile and prejudice to the discussion at a BBC level of intensity.
Who he is and by what qualification he has been chosen to attempt to influence us is anyone’s guess – but a job with the Guardian at some point in his career seems far more than a possibility.
He’ll have to go some, as The Guardian, a former newspaper, is setting a hot pace.
Taking Win, Place and Show for the most meaningless virtue-signalling nonsense is this morning’s headline “People of colour brace for climate injustice under Trump.”
Minority victim group included? Check. Vague Lefty issue? Check. Trump-bashing? Check.
This is just SJW porn, the Guardian equivalent of “Mediocre celebrity falls out of her dress at awards party.”
As a person of colour myself (started out pinkish, now have a becoming suntan) I can’t wait to see what injustices Trump is going to do to the climate.
Robert Moore is a hypocritical slug that follows the money, plenty on him on Y Tube. Paul Joseph Watson does a good spoof ( true though )on him.
Saw some non-entity on the fake news network CNN saying that a Trump/Pence assasination could keep obama in power. If true and I was Trump I would be sending the FBI reound to Crap Not News headquarters for more than a few words
From Wiki, JosF.
“Threatening the President of the United States is a class E felony under United States Code Title 18, Section 871.[1][2][3] It consists of knowingly and willfully mailing or otherwise making “any threat to take the life of, to kidnap, or to inflict bodily harm upon the President of the United States”. The United States Secret Service investigates suspected violations of this law and monitors those who have a history of threatening the President. Threatening the President is considered a political offense.[4] Immigrants who commit this crime can be deported.”
The secret service investigates unless it is the secret service making said threats.
The Clinton News Network have taken time off from demonising Trump to show its readers a more human side of Osama Bin Laden.
“Osama bin Laden, terrorist leader and doting father”
Toobi – I understand that Hitler was very kind to his dog Blondi. Perhaps they’ll mention that as well.
My sister in law is a very severe Bavarian, (ex wannabe Red Brigade in the 70’s) Lobbie, and in all my visits to Munich, spanning 16 years, I had never seen any mention of Hitler. This ended when I visited Königsee a couple of years ago and saw a book in a bookshop which was about Hitler and the Eagle’s Nest, which was above the Lake. When I told her that this the first ever mention I had seen regarding Hitler, she barked, “but he never went there!” I said, “WTF are you talking about, the History Channel has made a career from showing home videos of AH and the lads partying at the “Kehlsteinhaus!” My brother chimed in with, “her generation were not taught much about what went on, re AH” Things are a lot different with the younger generation, some seem to look upon him as a figure of ridicule. Who says the krauts don’t have a sense of humour? 🙂
no doubt trump is also a veggie and has a dog called blondie
But does Trump only have one testicle?
Given Trump, I think one is more then enough.
Part of the left’s obsession with relativism and thinking the most despicable scumbags are just misunderstood, which they always qualify with “he wasn’t perfect, but”.
Unless that person is a conservative or populist, in which case they have no redeeming qualities whatsoever.
If Obama pushed a terrorist off the side of a navy ship somewhere in the Indian Ocean, he’d look like fish bait…. respectfully, of course.
The BBC have abandoned all pretence of impartiality and are now into full ‘direct action’ mode (as the Left cutely like to call it – I think a more accurate description is subversion).
The Brexit vote and Trump’s election has sparked an acute outbreak in their ranks of Lefty Tourette’s, resulting in a relentless, spittle-flecked barking of vitriol and bile.
Like a rabid dog, they need to be put down to protect the public.
Simple. Stop the license fee extortion. “Pay as you Go” should be the way forward.
I wish someone would start a petition.

I like the ones that call for the encryption of the BBC paid for by subscription/payperview those who want the BBC in their lives will pay the rest of us can get on with our lives without having to pay £145-50p a year to be fed lies and propaganda, Either that or the BBC can be funded with adverts and take its chances with the professional broadcasters in the real world
I’ll get them to have a word with my lad’s company in Germany, J, they make encryption software for all the major satellite and TV companies. Would interesting to see how going subscription based would affect their revenue. They may not be as revered as they think!
A link to a petition was posted some time back; however, refuseniks may be courting a visit from the goons.
Sounds like a threat to me.
Are you speaking from experience or are you one them?
There is a wealth of information available online on how to deal with the “goons”.
I prefer the “Don’t Pat At All” model.

I think you meant to write Don’t Pay At All” ?
Funnily enough the comments made earlier about Robert Moore were based on his performance in the ITN 6.30 news, in common with similar efforts over the past few months. The programme he has just presented on ITV has eclipsed his previous best efforts by a county mile with unrelenting bile, vituperation and doom-laden projections for the future, a masterpiece of leftish breast-beating. He is obviously due to go far.
They certainly are redoubling the wailing and gnashing of teeth as their ship goes down.
Perhaps they feel that if they score enough virtue signalling brownie points, they may be rescued by some organisation with better future prospects than their current employer. In the case of the Guardian, that includes almost every company on the planet.
B
… due to go far. 6 feet enough?
The BBC and C4 and the rest have blown it. I doubt if any of them are ever going to get an interview with Mr Trump ever. It is important that we somehow ( it can be done ) let him know that our media is compromised and speaks only for itself and an elite. That as President he must address us independently via new media outlets.That payback is due for the way they have behaved
I have a suspicion that shortly he will do something that will so enrage our MSM and our corrupted universities in particular let alone the UN that exploding heads will not even be close to describing their outrage.
I suspect that Nigel has already put him in the picture about our media.
Dear of him. Good old Nige. Dependable and honest.
According to last night’s “Newsnight”, Dave, Trump is the tyrant and the tyranny (according to Plato) he ushers in will replace the present democracy.
I am truly mystified by the ‘hate Trump’ brigade. Surely he will be no worse than Obama (even better by far) and stop calling me Shirley.
He said he was going to ‘drain the swamp’ . The media must have known the swamp was them ? They are now showing their colours in their swansong .
The media are the pathetic new ‘socialist left’ that distort the truth.
if what we had was democracy, i will take the tyranny thxs
The problem is that they hated Trump so much that they refused to properly scrutinise the far more corrupt Clinton, and even Obama who is not as squeaky clean as the BBC makes out. Their attempts to attack one side while sanctifying the other almost always backfires.
From noon tomorrow Trump is President. Does that mean he can open the Obama security file and look at Obama’s birth certificate?
I hope so. Why did Obama close his education file? It cant be that his grades were not as brilliant as he makes out.
Maybe he got a foreign student scholarship.
I really hope Mr.Farage has made Trump fully aware of the BBC’s agenda and just how awful their reporting has been during this campaign.
One can write Nigel Farage.
Should be Sir.
Trump Gores a Sacred Cow, and Liberals Lament
By Daniel L. Mallock
The great Broom of Time recently swept away another failed ideology and political movement.
On the 20th of January, the dustbin of history will slam shut on the Utopian American Progressive Left. Followers, leaders, and philosophers of this dangerous and failed global movement will not go quietly, however; ideas die hard, and ideologies, movements, and political theories do not simply disappear overnight.
Inauguration Day 2017 will mark perhaps the greatest political and cultural shift in American history as the Utopians of the Progressive Left kick and scream, wail and whine as they shuffle off into forced retirement and irrelevance.

That is why the BBC is fighting tooth and nail. This totalitarian communist sympathising propaganda organisation, should have been humanely put to sleep at the fall of the Berlin wall. Had it not been for taxpayer funding, it would not be barking like Pavlov’s dogs, into the 21st century.
As a commentator writes
“The Democrats haven’t been this angry since we freed the slaves.”
~Rob Schneider
NCBBC
“should have been humanely put to sleep”
You can use all the euphemisms you wish, as humanely as you like.
I just want them all killed, soonest, by all and any, means.
Truthfinder
I understand. But try to be kind to the mentally ill.
NCBBC
The BBC might have had a little relivance at the beginning of broadcasting but it was soon obsolete and certainly by the 1930s the BBC both technologically and as a funding model was both obsolete and irrelevant as a trip to the USA would have shown where by 1939 Americans had acess to 100s if not 1000s of radio stations and with the beginnings of TV several TV stations. So why does the UK hang on to such long outdated concepts as state owned broadcasters like the BBC. PS to all those leftards moaning about Murdoch taking over Sky which by all acounts he allready owns a large holding in just remember that untill 1955 when ITV started we had a choice of the BBC or a choice of the BBC for both radio and TV as a 60s teenager I never bothered with the BBC for music perfering the infinately better Radio Luxemberg, Radio Caroline, Radio London etc rather than the miserable Radio one from the miserable BBC
The impression I get from watching the BBC News is that we have two BBC journalists interviewing each other on preconceived opinions determined at a seminar.
So as far as I could determine the facts according to the BBC, they are:
(1) Obama did not divide America because Republicans respect democracy because they are well educated in and have national pride in the America Constitution.
(2) Trump is dividing America because Democrats do not respect democracy because poor education means they have a third world attitude toward democracy, which includes the assassination of opponents.
Both BBC and Channel 4 have hit jobs on Donald Trump in the early hours.Disgusting of them but par for the course.
I watched a bit of Fox News ,which is so upbeat and positive , you really feel the excitement of a new dawn.
Really the BBC needs to be put out of its misery.It is poisoning our public life.

Jon Sopel had to report in that whining wasp-taste of a voice he displays when he says one thing and wants desperately to say another.
I still think that famous bBeeb ‘question’ at President Elect Trump’s superb press conference was a classic put-down for a very poor Beeb appearance.
Ian Panel-Pin – ‘Wibble, fumble, mumble, Brexit, hate-crime, Fuzzbleed, Oldham, er wibble again, Barack, golf, Clinton, dribble, wibble yet again (he is good at that, isn’t he), hate, pound, Brexit banks, dossier dollar fix, smell, er – that’s it…”
President Elect Trump – “There’s nothing they can come back with”!
Instantly turns to a proper question from a real journalist.
The bbc breakfast hack has reached the end of his road trip. He was speaking to a very charming Republican Senator and Trump supporter, and kept mentioning Trumps remarks about Women, after he mentioned it for the third time the Republican replied “Oh! those things he said 30 years ago, no I didn’t like those” and carried on with his positive praise of Trump.
A small and very subtle put down which exposed the hack as the two bob amatuer he really is.
The hack was then left floundering, as he had to nod along with the Senator as he continued to praise Trump.
Over on Sky this from the Male sofabot, “Today Donald Trump becomes the 45th President of the United States, barring a catastrophe” He didn’t say heres hoping, but I think we all got the messsge.
The BBC breakfast bloke has had a nice hoiday in the USA at the expense of the tv licence payer, what exactly did he achieve?
The coverage of the inauguration on the BBC will be so predictable. Trump will be vilified by three of every four guests , whereas for Useless Barry we will see the beginning of the campaign to make him a saint, the first ever live saint. I’m not sure if they have an equivalent to sainthood in Islam but if they do he has probably already received it in secret for his promotional work.
As soon as any protesters arrive they will be given air time out of all proportion to their numbers and held up as evidence that the majority of Americans didn’t vote for Trump , that American is more divided than ever .But they need to be careful about pushing the majority angle conferring legitimitacy after their steadfast opposition to the Brexit majority back home. But it is probably that the BBC will disregard this stricture because https://biasedbbc.tv/blog/category/mark-mardell/after all both causes have right on their side. Well they must mustn’t they their liberal left causes .
If there is any violence it will of course be the fault of racist fascist Trump supporting thugs who are all white supremacists.
But surely Katty Kay will be the epitome of fair BBC reporting – its in their DNA you know.
She leaves her politics at the door, and picks up her script with BBC approved enhancements along with her mic.
Doublethinker: I’m not sure if they have an equivalent to sainthood in Islam but if they do he has probably already received it in secret for his promotional work.
Shia Islam have something like a hidden imam. From Wiki
The Occultation (Arabic: غيبة Ghaybah) in Shia Islam refers to a belief that the messianic figure, or Mahdi, who in Shi’i thought is an infallible male descendant of the founder of Islam, Muhammad, was born but disappeared, and will one day return and fill the world with justice and peace
It might explain why the Obama disaster was so generous to Iran. Obama will now go into occultation as the sun rises.
It was inspiring to hear the Battle hymn of the Republic, sung by a forces male voice choir.
He has sounded form the trumpet that shall never call retreat
He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment-seat
Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Him! be jubilant, my feet!
Our God is marching on.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.
In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea,
With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me:
As He died to make men holy, let us live to make men free,
While God is marching on.
They are all at it pontificating on how Donald will bring the country together .No context about how divided Obama has left it in every way possible. No context of how the left is funding the violence .
The silent majority in the States are rejoicing right now ,they have endured a horrible 8 years after being sucked in by the Hope n Change mantra.
Trump will do it by putting in place policies that will benefit every one in society.He has said it a thousand times yet they still go on about the divisive nonsense.
Divide and rule ,that’s all the left know.
AFIIAAA no one has simply compared the state of foreign relations, racial harmony, etc, between Barry taking and handing over to a guy whose term in office starts today.
Protest marches on any daft cause at the drop of a hat. Black and white cops being killed at whim. Tanks parked on the Russian border. Bombs at public events.
I also just read that BO authorised a $500M sweetheart green bung to drain the coffers a bit more.
He could take a dump on the White House steps as he checks out and the MSM would have him declared divine.
I haven’t watched any TV programme on Trump as just the titles, for example ‘Trump’s dirty secrets’ tells me all I need to know. CNN are hinting hopefully at assassination and whilst I believe in free speech I could agree that CNN should be shut down which does go against my core beliefs, however how much should we take, the more we take the more insane the left become.
I listened to Glen Beck on 5Live also and he stated that he ‘had never seen a more divided ( racial ) America as of now’. Strange that isn’t it Trump has only just been elected, has he travelled the entire continent of America to witness this divide in just a few short weeks?
I switched off when the female interviewer ( sounds rather like that odious Labourite Linda Beloss of the eighties ) started sneering at the lack of big celebs at Trumps inauguration, of course failing to say that Jon Voight kick started it.
If I were single I would stop paying the BBC as it really does hurt me now, unfortunately I cannot drag my family into basically what would be a ‘crime’.
Try it. Legally. My kids haven’t watched live tv in years. It’s all online and catch up and YouTube.
Me & the missus watch Ch5 cop shows, Ch4 Sci Fi like Humans and Amazon Prime. Season 2 Bosch daily for now.
Plus assorted docos on history and nature.
Stuff like news from the BBC or Sky all online as I would not trust their offerings with a barge pole.
Guest Who
Thanks for the reply, how do I stand with skyplus recordings?
Best to check with such as the TV licensing blog, but I believe that’s a no-no as they are ‘recorded’ from a live broadcast, and hence deemed fee payable.
So if the family needs their Game of Thrones fix, you still pay Aunty her tithe for the T&A on Poldark or Nightmanager to keep the girls in BBC PR excited. And the women.
Big celebs even if they are Trump supporters will have been advised to steer clear of his inauguration as they all know a lot of the worlds left wing media would destroy their careers.
Wild Bill
You are correct, we are told that ‘Hollywood’ is against Trump, yes plenty of ‘stars’ ( shooting ones, as here today gone tomorrow ) have come out against him yet there are far more that have not come out against him, which you would think they would as the entire media are against Trump, that these stars rely on for their fame.
Poor Nicole Kidman being attacked on twatter for suggesting that Trump now elected as president should be supported, this is why most are quiet.
Kate Bush had trouble over here just for saying she liked Theresa May.
Who gives a damn about what Luvvies think about anything ?
A beaut on 5Dead this morning. A run up on their mornings programmes..’How to spot fake news’ is amongst them. Then we hear an excerpt from a Huff post journo, stating that American blacks are in fear because of Trump and his ‘endorsement of the KKK’
‘You couldn’t make it up’ as R. Littlejohn would say!
Correct me if I`m wrong, but wasn`t that Liberal Favourite President, JFK, known to be living on “uppers, Downers, sidewaysers (sic), Painkillers, Barbiturates…. etc, etc”, also an out and out Adulterer. Any Liberals care to justify his actions?
Thought not.
Yet Trump, by doing what the health nuts (BBC included), nag Joe Public to do on a daily basis, somehow gets slagged off for doing the “Right” thing, health wise.
Of course, a certain section of the population doesn`t drink Alcohol, yet I never hear of their lifestyle choice being criticised by the beeb or it`s minions.
Paddy,
Another blindingly obvious double standard.
I can’t help but wonder how they can get away with that! As you point out. Alcohol is not tolerated in Islam. The Donald isn’t trying to force the rest of the population into abstinence.
It is strange. In my experience , most journalists and Lefties are piss-artists, so why do they support Islam ? Weird.
Just when you thought that the appallingly biased liberal elite flag waver Katty Kay might have doomed her career by her pro Clinton obsessions on US election night, she’s dragged out again to anchor the inauguration coverage on BBC. Sopel is her henchman , he who loves Hillary, worships Obama and cannot give any even balance in his reporting, currently eulogising Michelle.
I doubt Bradbury and Moore are much better on ITV. It shows we need to reform mainstream non- paywall, news broadcasting in the UK.
You are absolutely right. Moore was particularly nauseating and completely hysterical.
Jon T
Our esteemed broadcaster lived up to your predictions throughout. Constant screeching interruption of studio conversation whenever Obama made a move and near hysteria when his helicopter flew ‘right behind them’ and they had to get a pic. As for Rajini on the Mall… banal, unprofessional interviews with members of the public. Service as usual.
I did notice, with some amusement, that after she entered the inauguration balcony to a bit of applause, and especially after Mr Trump started speaking, when it became patently obvious that Mr Obama’s long-heralded (by the BBC, anyway) ‘attainments’ whilst in office were definitely going to be dismantled, Michelle Obama’s face was tripping her until she and hubby got on that helicopter (note, as one BBC guy pointed out in a clearly disappointed fashion that it can’t be called ‘Marine One’ unless the current President/First Lady are on board) – and they departed the scene.
What a sore loser she is – no grace or decorum.
And, I hate to mention it, but Melania Trump looked radiant, beautiful, well-coiffured and elegantly dressed, as opposed to Michelle Obama who clearly couldn’t give a toss if she wasn’t to be the centre of attention and turned up looking like a real drudge in almost every respect.
18 year old dumbass kid in work tells me “I hope Trump is shot today!” What? I ask, why?
“He’s a racist, The election was all rigged. He has no right to be president” I wish someone would just shoot him. I’m ENTITLED to my opinion!”
I wonder where his “opinion” came from?
Just watched the hideously white choir and marine corp band singing at the Donald’s inauguration. The bBBC diversity corp must tearing their hair out!
Snow and Morris on C4 news tonight absolutely disgraceful. However the normally chipper Kylies face looked like she had just taken a huge bite of a shit sandwich. Only reason I kept watching.
Didn’t the BBC start the ‘kill Trump’ narrative with their own David Attenborough saying ‘why doesn’t somebody just shoot him’?
Certainly at the vanguard.
But it was not hate.
Or a crime.
Apparently.
