SHHH… DON’T MENTION THE OBAMA CONNECTION

BBC: MF Global files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.

US brokerage firm MF Global has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection after revealing £4bn of eurozone debt exposure….
Jon Corzine, who took over as chief executive of MF Global last year, made big bets on sovereign bonds issued by European countries, it is claimed.

And now for the detail you don’t get from the BBC…

Jon Corzine was the Obama-backed former governor of New Jersey who was defeated by Chris Christie in 2009.

Can’t think why the BBC chose to ignore that.

    The BBC censored Corzine’s connection to The Obamessiah because the NY Times did.  That’s their get-out-of-bias free card.

    You can’t trust the BBC on US issues because they behave like this.  But they won an award, see, so I’m totally wrong.
