GOING FOR GROWTH

BBC coverage of the G8 Camp David Summit is as predictable as ever and riven by anti-British bias. The BBC have adopted the line that Hollande and his exciting “growth” plans have synched with Obama and isolated Cameron. And maybe Merkel. Funny how you never hear the BBC report on this little detail. US National Debt  2008          $10,699, 804,612, 604 US National Debt 2012     … Continue reading

NO COMMENT?

This story is brought to my attention.. “Iran hangs ‘Israel spy’ over nuclear scientist killing Majid Jamali Fashi delivered a “confession” on Iranian television. A man convicted of killing an Iranian nuclear scientist in Tehran two years ago has been hanged, Iran’s state media report. Majid Jamali Fashi, 24, was convicted of killing Professor Massoud Ali Mohammadi by detonating a bomb outside his home in January 2010. Fashi was also accused of being a … Continue reading

FAIR GAME?

I see the BBC have covered Warsi’s comments on a “small minority” of Pakistani men seeing young white girls as “fair game”.  Lots of parenthesis lest we got the wrong impression and how wonderful to read that extensive item without the words MUSLIM or ISLAM getting a mention. That said, Mosques do get a name check but happily the world class BBC journos hit the brakes at that point….

What That “World-Class” BBC Spends Your Money On

This is a guest post by B-BBC reader A Libertarian Rebel…do give it a read. “There must be very few, if any, B-BBC readers unaware of the visceral hatred which our much beloved national broadcaster harbours towards all things Murdoch and News International. It’s dressed up, of course, as a lofty, altruistic, public-service-broadcasting concern about quality standards and the monopolistic effects of excessive market share (conveniently ignoring, err, the Beeb’s … Continue reading

Reporting The US On The Bias

“Cutting on the bias” in wood or textiles means cutting diagonally against the grain so that it accentuates the lines. That’s what’s going on at the BBC’s special section on the US 2012 election. It hasn’t been updated in a couple of days, and here’s how it appears now: White House propaganda, White House propaganda, and more of it, with a couple of fluff pieces thrown in. The top story … Continue reading

How Sweet..BBC Goes All Nostalgic Over The Punks Saying “Stuff The Jubilee” In 1977

Only the BBC would dream of digging up a graveyard full of corpses who were punks in 1977 when we were celebrating the Queen’s Silver Jubilee. “I was against the Silver Jubilee, against the symbolism and the money being spent on the festivities. My friends and I thought the royals could afford to pay for the party themselves.” Thus one Louise Bolotin, a 50 year old “writer”, reminiscing about those … Continue reading
