It’s reassuring that News Online are getting to the bottom of some stories – it’s a pity though that others, such as this one, Christian doctor ‘was forced out’, seem to pass the BBC by.
BBC News Online’s front page prominently featured this important

Allan,
However, on the subject of the Anthony Walker murder, Nicola Sturgeon of the SNP stated that blacks and asians are much more likely to be victims of racial crime than whites. That is an absolute lie..
Actually it is true. There are few blacks and Asians, so the very small number of racial attacks by whites are distributed among a small pool of victims which means that their chances of suffering an attack are relatively high.
The bit you can count on the left to obscure is the reverse of this medal. There are so many whites that the relatively huge number of racist attacks by non-whites on whites disappears into a large pool of victims so that individual whites are relatively unlikely to be attacked.
But blacks and Asians are respectively around 27 and 20 times more likely to be the perpetrator of such an attack or incident than whites.
IIRC the split is something like 40% white offender (from 94% of the population), 30% Asian (3.5%) and 30% black (2.5%). Basically, 6% of the population is doing 60% of the racially-motivated crime.
But al-BBC doesn’t want to know that and doesn’t want you to know it either.
OT: isn’t it funny that the SNP is regarded as a party of the left while the BNP, which shares all its prejudices except the anti-English one, is regarded by al-BBC as a party of the right?

Naturally, their page cites the US Death Penalty Information Center – an anti-capital punishment outfit.
They wouldn’t quote from prodeathpenalty.com where the ghastly details of Boyd’s crimes are disclosed:

Re. Yates/Walker murders.
For a quick comparison of the BBC’s coverage of the Yates and Walker murder trials take a look at the number of reports on each.
The story on the sentencing of Christopher Yates’ murderers has a section at the side titled “See Also” with links to the BBC’s other reports on the case. All two of them.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/london/4463142.stm
The report on sentences for Anthony Walker’s murderers also has a section at the side for further reports, but this one has a special “Anthony Walker Trial” heading and comes with subsections for “Latest News”, “Background”, and “The Trial”. There are a total of eleven links to related stories.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/merseyside/4487208.stm
Christopher Yates’ murderers got shorter sentences because they went on to attack more people. His case received a fraction of the coverage. I guess his life must have been worth less for some reason.
The colour of his skin, perhaps?
Well, well here is a view of Alistair Campbell’s which can be supported & which we require of the BBC.(Who knows, how long Alistair has held this opinion, but repented sinner & all that).
Alastair Campbell is editing Five News at 7pm tonight, giving Tony Blair’s former spin-doctor the kind of opportunity that would have been handy in his old job. The Campbell plan is to stop reporters “filling the screen and giving their views” rather than letting a story speak for itself. Watch out also for items about why people convert to Islam and whether footballers should have their salaries capped . . . and for Campbell’s choice of the leading item.

OT – now this is funny.
Bush concern at Iraq ‘propaganda’
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/4490324.stm
“Although many are basically factual, they only present one side of events and omit information that might reflect poorly on the US or Iraqi government, the newspaper said.
Hmm, a bit like BBC ‘propaganda’ then except that BBC propaganda, whilst similarly only presenting one side of events, omits information that might refelct positively on the US/UK.
Oh oh here comes Hawley…..
“The BBC’s Caroline Hawley in Baghdad says the allegations are an embarrassment to the American military at a time when it is trying to promote transparency in Iraq.”
Evil USA!
Evil Boosh!
Yes Ritter, I particularly liked BBC Online’s contribution by way of a picture caption
Iraqis will wonder whether they should trust what papers say
Don’t we all?

Well said.
re Crybaby Plett an Orla, remember that they are authoritarian socialists who would have been on the side of the USSR during the cold war even though this would have enslaved thier less than pretty selves to state servitude. As that possibility no longer exists they`ve hitched themselves to the enslaving bandwagon that is Islam, thier raison d`etre being “anyone but the USA” as self reliant free people are anathama to those of little talent.
Socialism is a busted flush.
Plett, Orla and Socialists everywhere are Turkeys voting for Christmas. It is the job of normal people to ensure that Socialists get exactly what they wish for, but that the rest of us are not subjected to thier perversions.
Socialism should be voluntary. But the arrogance and jealousy of socialists makes them want to control others.
Hence the TV-Tax and the NHS, killing them mind and the flesh respectively.
Anonymous –
Where would you advertise when looking for, say, APs, subs, or SBJs, Pete?
Sorry, haven’t a clue what you’re talking about. Ask me in English and I’ll oblige you.

I checked the 2001 census and there are around 800,000 Hindus and Sikhs included in the Asian total. Given that Sikhs and Hindus have very low criminality rates, I’d guess that those responsible for the highest rate of racist attacks against whites (and everybody else) are adherents of the religion of peace.
Allan,
Indeed.
To have no morals at all would be better than to have Islamofascist ones.

———————————–
From this it can be deduced that the Black and Asian parts of the population are inherently more ‘racist’, as a group, than the majority population. For all those who carry out racially motivated crimes there must be a far greater number who hold the same views but are unwilling to act.
This demonstrates that multiculturalism has both failed and is damaging society as a whole, while at the same time holds out little hope for an alternative policy of integration.
For all the BBC’s proselytising about Multicultural and Multiracial Britain, and how wicked ‘ol whitey’ is, they have managed to get this 100% wrong. Their efforts are actually damaging the cause they espouse. They are simply talking to the wrong audience.
DFH,
Regarding the paucity of coverage of Christopher Yates’ murder, and the splurge of self-righteous coverage by the BBC of Anthony Hamilton’s murder, I can only assume that some other world-shaking exclusive shook the emaciated BBC newsrooms on the day(s) when Mr Yates’ murder was newsworthy. These earth shattering events were…er…um…pensions? A football team losing a game? Large female knickers? Any ideas..?
The BBC TV News appears to be getting more like “Blue Peter” every day. (Blue = neutral colour). It cannot be long before newscasters are showing us how to make castles out of cardboard loo rolls and sticky back plastic. The BBC thinks the knickers (snigger) are funny and no doubt children in Primary School do as well, but we have a right to expect News Editorial staff to be more grown up. At least we now know what turns liberals on, not bare breasts or luscious legs but KNICKERS!
Oh come off it, every good publication should have a mix of light stories and heavier ones, light and shade. The Torygraph does exactly the same thing… and the same goes for Sky and Fox, which you lot seem to think the BBC should emulate.
Gus Finch “you lot”
The only emulation we lot seek is for the BBC to join Fox & Sky in being funded voluntarily.
The BBC can take on any style it wants as long as I have a choice to pay or not.
