THIS IS THE WORLD CALLING

So, it’s quite early in the morning, and I turned on the BBC Word Service just after 5am. Talk about bias! A charming female presenter, with a decidedly non-British accent, read out in the space of 15 minutes a litany of one-sided BBC liberal bias. We were told about the very important UN meeting on climate change and “fears” that it might not succeed (whose fears?); we were told about Obama trying to get Israel to accept making peace with Palestinians; we were told about how smoking bans have reduced heart attacks by up to almost 40% in the first two years. Great stuff and all being carefully broadcast globally by our dear friends in the BBC. It’s not just the damage the BBC does in the UK that we should reflect upon but rather the global impact of this most biased of broadcasters.
