Look that the garbage Katty Kay is reduced to (re)tweeting, because she apparently has nothing of substance to say about the Republican National Convention last night:
.RNC Attendee Allegedly Threw Nuts At Black CNN Camerawoman, Said ‘This Is How We Feed Animals’ 2012.talkingpointsmemo.com/2012/08/cnn-re… via
@tpm— Katty Kay (@KattyKayBBC) August 29, 2012
“Allegedly”. It’s from the far-Left (naturally, as Katty retweets little else) Talking Points Memo. It’s just a claim, no video, no proof. But the BBC’s Washington correspondent, anchor of BBC World News America, and well-paid representative of the BBC on shows like “Morning Joe” on MSNBC and as regular guest host for NPR’s Diane Rehm show, has no problem spreading this as yet unsubstantiated rumor. Because it suits her agenda and biased worldview.
UPDATE: It’s substantiated now. RNC staff admit what happened, and the BBC has rushed to report it. The offenders were tossed immediately. Of course, in the interests of “balance”, the BBC finally mentioned the existence of Mia Love. Having now done the bare minimum, they still refused to tell you about the great reception she received, or that today she’s the top search query on Google. BBC very much not with the news trends on this one. I wonder why? Artur Davis’s appearance is still being censored from BBC output.
What’s most disgusting about what Katty’s done here is that it distracts from something the BBC seems to have overlooked in their coverage of the RNC: Mayor of Saratoga Springs and candidate for the House from Utah, Mia Love, gave a speech which received a rousing reception.
Anybody think the crowd was filled with racists? Not only that, but Artur Davis, The Obamessiah’s 2008 campaign co-chair, also spoke last night. No reports of monkey chants or anything. Yet Katty Kay wants to help spread rumors to make you think Republicans are racist. Even if it’s just one lone idiot doing it, Katty wants to discredit the entire Party.
This is not professional behavior, but sadly is what we’ve come to expect from her. Keep in mind that, unlike the other Beeboid twitterers we like to bust for bias here, Katty’s page is an official, BBC-sanctioned account, with logo and everything. There is no “views my own” get-out-of-bias-free disclaimer here. This is not the out-of-school, anything goes, stuff which BBC management has decided is outside their jurisdiction. This is a BBC-sanctioned Twitter account, and Katty is officially representing the the BBC here.
UPDATE: Funny how Katty isn’t tweeting about how some lovely Democrats defaced Mia Love’s Wikipedia page by calling her a ‘dirty, worthless whore’ and ‘House Nigger’. (screenshot of the offending text at the link). Wikipedia has since sent it down the memory hole, but you can still see the evidence that there was an offensive edit they had to fix. But Katty’s interested only in spreading rumors harmful to Republicans, not real evidence of acts that make Democrats look bad.
Come to think of it, where are the mentions of Mia Love or Artur Davis in the BBC reports about last night’s convention launch? Nothing from Mardell, nothing in the pictures the BBC posted, nothing from Mark Mardell, nothing in the video clips. It’s like it didn’t happen. Which, of course, is the impression the BBC wants you to have.
Apparently, their fellow travelers at MSNBC cut back to the studio for commentary when Love and Davis took to the podium, so their audiences weren’t allowed to see them. Does anyone know if the BBC did the same thing during their broadcast? Do BBC audiences have any idea that they even exist?
Considering just how much effort has been spent – by Democrats and their supporters in the media, especially including the BBC – over the last five years (I’m including the 2008 election campaign here) trying to tell you that any opposition to The Obamessiah is based on racism, one might think it’s a big deal that Love and Davis both spoke at the national convention. At least the BBC could have mentioned them just to sneer at such blatant tokenism, right?
Please, defenders of the indefensible, at least show me evidence that the BBC didn’t censor these people’s presence entirely. The BBC wouldn’t be so dishonest, would they?
ALL minority speakers (and business women) were edited from the MSNBC coverage – except South Carolina governor Nikki Haley (http://www.nikkihaley.com/) whose parents are from India. I guess the lefty bigots at MSNBC thought she just had a deep tan.
Any minority candidate who allies with the Republicans faces a barrage of hate. The latest victim sadly is the fabulous Mia Love. Her Wikipedia page was hacked into and abuse left on it.

With the help of the archives on this site I intend to collate the BBC’s coverage of this election (Mardell, Kay etc) and send a report to my old masters at the BBC – and to producers. Maybe the weight of evidence can shame them into some action from within. Their complicity in the distortions about the Presidential race are blatant. Cynics may think this is a fruitless exercise – but I am not so sure. Times are changing. Lets not give up hope.

There was a very positive piece on the Republican Convention woman’s Hour today which had a speaker explaining how the the Republicans could win and indeed how they could keep a grip on the White House. Very pro-republican but then that will be ignored here as like most BBC output…it was wasn’t biased.
2 likes
Not biased? Really? Where did you hear anything about how the Republicans could “keep a grip on the White House”? I heard zero mention of that.
The segment was introducing (starting @ around 35:30) by suggesting that Ann Romney spoke because the Republican Party is not doing well with women. Cue obligatory Akin rape reference to reinforce the Democrat and Leftoid Narrative that he represents the entire Party. So even though both Bushes, Clinton, and The Obamessiah Himself trotted out their wives at their respective conventions, only Romney is doing it to pander to women, right?. The selected excerpt where Mrs. Romney mentioned the word “women” was meant to support that notion.
Dr. James Boyce(?) dismissed Mrs. Romney’s battle with cancer and MS as just something that will play well to the hardcore choir, but might not impress the rest of the country. Wake me up when somebody on the BBC says that unchallenged about somebody from the Left. Then he dismissed her entirely with a class war argument: Ann Romney is too wealthy to relate to “normal” women.
One bit of honesty – which highlights the fact that this is censored elsewhere on the BBC – was where he mentioned that the Republican stance on abortion does not ban it in cases of rape or incest. Thank heavens for small wonders.
But then he said that her speech was very little to do with specifically women’s issues, which pretty much kills the pandering charge. Oops, moving quickly on, then….
The claim that people didn’t vote for Kerry because they didn’t like his wife is an absolute joke. Kerry lost for a variety of reasons, but nothing to do with his wife. At least he didn’t just say Bush stole that election.
The segment wasn’t super biased, but the premise was biased, the introduction was biased, and some of the guest expert’s comments were biased.

Being a Brit in Canada I can access most of the televised MSM from south of the border. I spent a fair bit of time watching Fox and was surprised by the number of Democrat inclined commentators that were on to express their views.
About 10.00 pm MTZ and for a laugh, I flicked over to MSNBC. I wasn’t disappointed and was soon holding my sides as an assortment of knuckle dragging apes, orchestrated by a very butch woman, hurled venom and hysterical abuse at every speaker at the Republican convention. The funniest ape was Shapton. Not one mention at all about policies or the dire economic situation, just ad hominen abuse.
I don’t pretend to know the nuances of the American pesidential race, but from watching the MSNBC contribution I have a feeling that the charlatans currently infesting the White House are running very scared indeed.

Look, I have no problem accepting that there were two idiots at the convention. Maybe they were referring to the biased shills at CNN in general as animals? Okay, maybe not. Still, this one incident is no more reason to discredit the entire party (which is Katty Kay’s and the BBC News Online staff’s belief and intent) than it would be to discredit the entire Occupy movement over one incident.
Of course, with the Occupiers, there have been an almost innumerable amount of incidences of violence, vandalism, rape, possible murder, and anti-Semitism. Yet the BBC has never reported any of it, and would never, ever dream of trying to discredit the movement over them.
The BBC staff who work the US beat are very sick individuals.

The disdain was evident. Link to the segment is here. However, Mardell can get away with it because he provided “balance” by pointing out that Republicans like Ryan, and he might help Romney’s chances.
But I thought the real bias was in that Mardell had an ordinary civilian woman and a …*shudder*… Evangelical mouthpiece speak on the pro-Ryan side, while he had a professional voice – a “journalist” from Salon – spend a minute essentially calling Ryan a hypocrite (plus a nice class war dig, always a bonus for the BBC).
The word “Evangelical” is a dog whistle for the Left, and Mardell knows it. Why get someone concerned with social issues to speak about budgetary concerns? His opinion holds little value, but hey: he’s an “Evangelical”, so is a valid representative for all Republicans on all topics, right, BBC?

That’s the same Jonny Dymond who told you a while back that the Republicans were the Party of old, white America”. After his colleagues censored all news of Mia Love’s and Artur Davis’ appearance (until a day later when somebody upstairs forced an editor to add a line mentioning Love’s existence at the very end of an report about Republican attendees hurling racial abuse and peanuts at a black person), I’s day there’s no point in listening to anything else he has to say on the subject.
Dymond’s “crazed right wing freak” quip reveals his arrogance and closed-mindedness. He said such a thing because he assumes most of his audience shares his beliefs and will be coming from that perspective. Perhaps he’s right, but it makes that statement no less biased.

In Mardell’s segment on Today, he brought in Salon’s Joan Walsh to provide balance against Republican convention attendees who supported Ryan. I summarized her words as basically calling Ryan a hypocrite.
But I’ve just found that the reason Mardell brought her in is because she wrote a scathing piece on Ryan for Salon. Read for yourselves the kind of opinion Mardell seeks for balance:
Paul Ryan’s brazen lies
Walsh tells a couple lies herself, although Mardell wouldn’t know that. He believes what his Left-wing media friends tell him about this kind of thing. For example, she says Ryan lied about an auto-making plant which actually closed under Bush and not The Obamessiah. Fact: it stayed open and in production until well into 2009, and then closed after His Stimulus. Another obvious lie is Walsh pretending that that Stimulus plus the auto bailout plus ObamaCare plus more and more and more spending hasn’t more than doubled the deficit she tries to pin on TARP and the war efforts.
But Mardell will definitely be aware that her falsehoods are today’s Narrative for the rest of the MSM. Which is why he had her give her view. He thinks this is a valid viewpoint, and you can be sure he agrees with her every word.

As well as ignoring Mia Love and Artur Davis – black people who gave rousing speeches that are surely worth a proper mention – the BBC has failed to report on the superb speech by another “ethnic” – Susana Martinez, Governor of New Mexico who turned her state’s record deficits into a budget surplus – without raising taxes. Now that is obvious;ly anathema to the BBC.
But maybe what makes them suppress Martinez is that her life story is the American Dream in essence – hard-working and straightforward Latino parents who risked everything on setting up their own successful business. As she says, “They built that” – whereas all Obama has built is $5 trillion more debt.
A really cracking speech, strong stuff and really entertaining. It is a disgrace that the BBC won’t even mention such speeches – because they cut right across all the racist stuff that Mardell and others keep spouting as lapdogs for Obama. At the very least, the speeches by Artur Davis, Mia Love and Susana Marinez should be reported as having stirred the convention – and the website should carry links to video of the speeches so the audience can make their own mind up.
The BBC’s performance on this convention has been despicable.

Stupid comment as usual by Dandy.
The BBC – from way back when the Tea Party started – has carried the meme that Republicans are all white. But when the convention has a whole series of speeches – mostly very good speeches – by blacks and Hispanics in senior positions in the Party, Condi Rice is the only one who gets any real mention – even on the huge BBC website.
And even on Condi Rice, I did not hear any real mention of her speech on Radio 4, the BBC’s main news channel.
For UK issues, the BBC mostly regurgitates the Guardian line. For US stories – it is NYT, WaPo HuffPo and Politico.
The brief discussion of Romney’on the programme this morning had a Democrat critic – and someone I have never heard of giving faint praise from A “Republican” standpoint. What the so-called Repub said did not chime in any way whatsoever with the general views of really senior Republican commentators – whom the BBC NEVER bring on their programmes.

Jim, you’re simply wrong. In case you haven’t noticed how DB pointed it out, Mia Love’s appearance was censored entirely until sometime after that news brief about the peanut throwing racists went up and that addendum was tacked on at the bottom.
Considering how the main Narrative of BBC reporting has been that the Republican Party is the party of “old, white America,” and that racism informs nearly all opposition to the President, a black woman – not just any woman, as you tried to falsely spin it – getting a rousing reception ought to be mentioned. If nothing else, at least the BBC could cry tokensim about her. When I wrote the main post, the Mia Love sentence didn’t exist.
Black Mormon woman makes a speech at a convention portrayed by the mainstream media as being filled with racist Evangelical Christian whites who don’t consider Mormons to be proper Christians, and are too racist to vote for a black person, is news. You may not personally view the Republicans as being like that, but the BBC does, and this blog if full of evidence of their reporting it. We have to go by the BBC’s coverage, not your personal opinion.
Plus the total censorship of the President’s 2008 campaign co-chair.
As for Condi Rice, you can’t be serious. She doesn’t count as a proper black person because she was part of the Bush Administration and even though her name was bandied about for the candidacy of both Pres. and VP, Johnny Dymond and Mark Mardell and the usual R5 suspects still portrayed the Republicans and the Tea Party movement as being informed by racism. So Rice cannot be counted as a meaningful black person in their eyes, and mentioning her doesn’t count.
As for the Wikipedia entry, go cry “false flag” to someone who isn’t going to laugh at such desperate straw-grasping.

The Kenyan stooge started with “He’s the man who’s criticising President Obama.”
I didn’t bother listening to any more. Out of more than 200 countries in the world that they could have chosen, the bBBC just happened to pick the one where his father lived and where Obama has had the highest approval ratings. What a coincidence.
