The BBC Reporting On Behalf Of The President

The other day, DB posted about the BBC’s dutiful promotion of White House propaganda about Mitt Romney’s earnings from investment in Bain Capital. They put up the President’s campaign video, and helpfully explained how awful Romney was for earning money off of a failed company and sending poor innocent workers to the unemployment line. The campaign meant to attack Romney’s business record, attempting to tarnish his track record of successfully … Continue reading →

Disaster Day

On BBC News 24 yesterday, Jon Donnison reported the demonstrations in the Gaza strip and the West Bank by Palestinians celebrating Nakba day. I use the word ‘celebrate’ deliberately because Nakba day has become a celebration of victimhood rather than a commemoration of a Nakba (catastrophe) or cataclysmic disaster. Using this name brings it into line, in the world’s eye view, with a real catastrophe when half the world’s Jews … Continue reading →

I see that the BBC are busy churning out Labour talking points as news this morning…if Labour say it is true it must be true. “The number of elderly people in England getting council-funded care has fallen by 11% in the last two years, figures obtained by Labour suggest. Freedom of Information responses from 121 councils showed they provided free care to 59,056 over 65s in 2011-12, down from 66,342 … Continue reading →

IT’S ALL ABOUT GROWTH?

Have to laugh at the way in which the BBC are playing along with the content of the left play book that somehow “growth” is this years model! Francois Hollande’s vacuous suggestions about “growth” are treated by BBC correspodents as if they were a serious economic proposal rather than just another EU-phemism for further spending. There is no consideration of what this “growth” is, how it is going to be … Continue reading →

THE THIN BLUE SHADOW…

Did you see that the BBC are gleefully providing the Police Trade Union with a platform to attack Theresa May?  It seems she is “destroying” a police service admired throughout the world.  I wonder if this is the same police service (sic) that the BBC never misses the opportunity to put the boot into? From the shooting of Jean Paul de Menezes, through the summer riots, to that institutionalised racism … Continue reading →

HANG HER?

The BBC seem exultant that Rebekah Brooks has been charged with conspiracy to pervert the course of justice. In fact this is the lead story on their UK news portal, the single biggest story for the UK population apparently. This is media village indulgence and I have to say that I feel sorry for Brooks and contempt for the self indulgence of the BBC.

Marching Orders

Israel-supporting blogs have been cross posting an account of the manner in which Richard Millett was roughly ejected from yet another of the sinister pro-Palestinian meetings that abound in London institutions. The organisers objected to the fact that he was filming, but as there were others doing so too, it is more likely that they simply objected to his presence. He makes it his duty to attend these functions, which … Continue reading →

MORE QUESTIONS THAN ANSWERS…

I know we tackled this yesterday and it got quite a response but I think this post by B-BBC contributor Alan adds to the debate… “Listened to Any Questions in astonishment…..they nearly all refused to engage with the real issue…not that girls were raped but how they were selected…..which is why the attacks went on for so long originally. Raping girls in short skirts….“So what is wrong in it? Who … Continue reading →

HATE SITE?

Here’s one where I would appreciate your help. Did you know that Biased BBC, a site specifically and uniquely set up to challenge the BBC’s lack of impartiality, has been classified as a “hate site”? I am advised that “it was blocked on O2 and T-Mobile on 5th March. It is classified as a ‘hate site’ by O2’s URL checker” This is an outrage. Can I ask you to contact these … Continue reading →
