So, the Socialist candidate Francois Hollande managed to outpoll Sarkozy in the first round of the French Presidential race. And aren’t the BBC happy about it? I suggest that the idea of a French President determined to raise upper tax threshold to 75%, increase the number of State Workers whilst raising the minimum wage and thus ignoring the concept of fiscal austerity is their kind of guy. I can only … Continue reading
Those swines in the Coalition. How DARE they support Academies that better meet the needs of local parents and pupils without the dead hand of Government telling them what to do, how to do it, when to do it by and how often to do it! I mean if people get the idea that Education can prosper without the State, where might it all end? Health…god forbid even Broadcasting? So, … Continue reading
Orla Guerin. Two words that one instantly associates with BBC bias at its very worst. Here Biased BBC’s Alan provides us with a little amble down memory lane with the oh-so-selective Orla, ‘Israel says its troops are here to crush the militants, to stop the suicide bombers. But Palestinians in Jenin say civilians are paying a high price. Before we could see too many more scenes like this the army hustled … Continue reading
I’m trying something a bit new and different here. After asking David Vance and the All Seeing Eye, I’m starting a real rebuttal to the BBC’s lame output about US issues. I can’t compete with the “bespoke” video magazine pieces, but I can provide a bit more information and analysis of real US issues that get spun by the BBC or simply censored out of existence. There’s much more to … Continue reading
This was withheld for one day in case something tragic happened during the Grand Prix. Better safe than sorry, if one *May* say so. Cartoon. a) “A drawing depicting a humorous situation, often accompanied by a caption.” b) “A drawing representing current public figures or issues symbolically and often satirically: a political cartoon.” At best, a cartoonist will capture a facial expression or encapsulate a situation with humour, brevity and … Continue reading
Further to DB’s post and looking back through his tweets, there’s another campaign that Stuart Hughes seems single-handedly to have got started and then used the BBC News website to publicise. https://twitter.com/?tw_e=screenname&tw_i=193078816724365312&tw_p=tweetembed#!/stuartdhughes The story begins back in March: 19/3/12 Delighted to finally be able to announce that I’ll be taking part in the Olympic #torchrelay on Jul 24th The following day though he gets some unwelcome news… 20/3/12 Ah, the … Continue reading
Apparently the boss of a cab firm has said some less than complimentary things about cyclists, giving outrage-hungry time-rich media luvvies today’s excuse to whip themselves into a frenzy on Twitter. My question – what do you all make of this, impartiality-wise?
Although the BBC’s current attitude towards Israel is predominantly hostile, certain Jews are always treated sympathetically. Those persecuted and murdered by Hitler. “Holocaust Memorial Day in Israel is one of the most sombre points in the calendar. This year has seen the opening of an exhibition dedicated to the young men who ran a football league in the ghetto of Theresienstadt in the Czech republic, who left a remarkable musical … Continue reading
My goodness how the weeks fly in. And so we reach another Friday and so it is time for a new one of these to see us off into the weekend. Detail the BIAS here please.
“Genesis 12:10 And there was a famine in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine was grievous in the land.” Biased BBC contributor Alan notes how the BBC rewrites history to produce a new narrative of Egypt and twists the facts so that a Muslim scholar can claim the credit and not the ‘White Europeans or Americans’ ….they then rewrite it all again … Continue reading
