Start the Week Open Thread 5 November 2018

The Far Left BBC staff are in full anti Trump cry as the American Midterms arrive . They never seem to have been so important and never has so much bias been directed at a President – non politician – by so many. The main stream media will be desperate to write the epitaph for what they call ‘populism ‘ but others would call democracy . I really hope they are unable to do that but let’s see….

      Because Al Beeb generated and promoted Political Correctness it ‘painted itself into a corner’.

      Al Beeb don’t do comedy.

        Taffman is right, the BBC have put themselves in a box, and are now in the process of taping down the lid and posting themselves off to Outer Mongolia.

      Peter Cook rampant Leftie Douglas Adams rampant Leftie a couple of seconds in and they are taking a swipe at Margaret Thatcher and then Republican Vice President Dan Quayle suggesting his brain is worse than a Pumpkin.

      The left might have been a little funnier back then but nothing has changed in the BBCs bias, what went wrong is the Lefts move towards Fascism which does not brook humour.

    Watched a bit of News night with Emily M, presented from Washington DC. Was the BBC impartial? Was it bollocks. She had nearly all left leaning liberals given air time and saying how trump lost the house. Emily or her guests hardly mentioned that the senate stayed with republicans and they couldn’t understand why anybody voted for republicans

    I had to turn off! I had enough of the bbc news website earlier when they were showing the few Dems that got seats. Highlighting the Muslims and the trans that got elected.

    It wouldn’t be so bad if in the UK we had a right leaning news channel like fox but all we get is left wing shite from BBC sky itv. Thank God we got internet and can read the other side of the need without being brainwashed by the msn. If only we had a trump of our own in the uk

      As hissy fits go…. QED. What a beauty:

      Love the image. Poor Jim under vicious attack by an intern, directed by bad man, bad.

      Jim Acosta is simply a vocal activist ideologue prone to making accusations and speeches instead of asking questions.

      Which is indeed, what the bbc sees as their job. It really isn’t, especially over in another country whose leader they are obsessed about beyond reason.

      If Jim does not take one for the team and stroll out on the White House lawn with a Jerry can of 4* I would not be surprised.

            When I look at the BBC clip Guest put up you can clearly see Acosta deliberately didn’t give the microphone and when the Intern went to take it he blocked her arm quick vigorously – what I would call an aggressive movement.
            Now can you imagine if that had been POTUS making the same action.. TRUMP attacks intern..put him in jail!!

Why did they not ask any questions, or rather where were they? And why did the BBC send these nobodies to the US merely to copy pictures from other news sources?
                  And why are British people obliged to pay for reports and pictures anyone can source from the internet?

      I’d concur entirely Taffman. He’s setting them all up for a big fall next election cycle. The Potus will keep the public totally on side and happy and along the way, explain in detail why the lefty/Marxists are preventing him from doing more. He’ll slowly convert many of the Dems to increase his voter base by acting on some of their more obvious preferences. Excellent tactics in my view.

        G, I would not be surprised if President Trump started to act to restrict gun types available to the US public. It is the sort of radical thing he would do. Thinks: ‘This is hurting my bottom line. Now I’m gonna act on it!’

        Press ahead in one direction then when his political opponents and their media are howling at and about him, do a political body swerve and then a quick almost-but-not-quite U-turn to put them off-balance.

        Do that enough times in the next year or so and the Democrats may be put in a state of constant nervous and mental breakdown.

    In the morning bbc ‘news’ email, giggly Vicky says….

    “We’ve got so much good stuff to help you make sense of the mid-terms. To start, check out the results in maps and charts, and the five key things we learned. Here, too, are the women who made history in the vote – and some advice from the UK for them.”

    And here… is the ‘good stuff’, apparently….

    “The BBC’s Anthony Zurcher in Washington says the duty of overseeing the Russia probe has now shifted to a man who has been a critic of it. It’s possible this is just the opening move of a White House effort to shut it down, he adds.”

    It’s ‘just possible’ that whatever Anthony adds just possibly is Anthony’s version of ‘good stuff’ to tickle Vicky’s fancy. News, it is not.

    Define hate crime
    That seems to be the remit for BBC Breakfast this morning. So we have a guest from the Gloucestershire Steering Committee on Hate Crime, no less, to give us all the heads up. Before we get to the tricky definitions our Naga Munchetty jumps in and tells us in no uncertain terms that increased reporting is a “good thing”. Thank you for your opinion Naga. Then we’re told a hate crime is an attack on someone’s identity. So we’re clearly talking identity politics here. But where do you draw the line between banter and “crime”. You’ll note we carefully avoid talk of prosecution which generally follows the acusation of crime. So it all sounds fine and dandy theoretical stuff and we don’t have to imagine this hokey new law means anyone getting banged up in chokey for basically saying bad things someone somewhere doesn’t like. Anyway that awkward grey area is up to the individual victim to judge, apparently. But only for a moment does that definition remain. In the next breath our steering committee guest steers a u-turn and tells us “or someone witnessing a hate crime”. So the agency of the victim goes out of the window and suddenly the passer-by gets to decide. Or maybe they decide as well as? The whole thing is an absurd mess and the BBC is fully signed up for this tosh. Or terrified to say boo to the goose. Is that a hate crime against geese? You out there having witnessed me saying it may decide, apparently.

    • Terminal Moraine says:

      AISI, I’ve posted this before but to add to the absurd mess: this piece of research funded by Nottinghamshire Police and the Crime Commissioner was picked up by the beeb earlier this year and states hate crime “is understood as incidents against women that are motivated by the attitude of men towards women and includes behaviour targeted at women by men simply because they are women”.

      The current Home Office definition stipulates that the act must be “motivated by hostility or prejudice.” Notice the change? Now simply an ‘attitude’ is enough.

      Who gets to rule on attitudes, we’ll all be finding out in due course.

      If the BBC wanted to report US politics impartially, Sopel would be on the first flight home. Regrettably, Trump-baiting is seen by the BBC as it’s first duty. Sopel will also be saved by the fact he’s from a UK broadcaster. No doubt Sopel sneers at the Special Relationship but it saves him from going the same way as the CNN guy.

    The Guardian continually claim to be the most honest and trustworthy news organisation.

    In this piece the headline reads “Trump threatens ‘warlike’ response if Democratic House investigates him” but when you read the article the POTUS says nothing of the sort, he actually says that the Democrats are adopting warlike posture.

    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/nov/07/trump-warlike-response-democratic-house-midterms

    The article goes on to say “Tuesday’s election outcome fell short of the repudiation of the president that millions in America, and around the world, had yearned for after two years of tumult, offensiveness and shattering of democratic norms.”

    “Shattering of democratic norms?” – what are you talking about? The American people went to the polls and broadly showed their support for Donald Trump.

    No amount of fake news headlines can change the fact that he’s more popular than Obama ever was.

    Before Feddy decides to load a new thread I want to get my piece in.

    Leaving the why’s and wherefores’ out, I had to applaud Trump in castigating a news reporter – calling him rude and bad mannered.

    For many years now the behaviour of our news journalists is nothing short of behaving like fish wives (no disrespect). Door stepping politicians and shoving microphones inches away from their faces for me makes uncomfortable watching. The constant yelling across streets like kids in a playground, shouting questions, is not the behaviour of adults. Yes, politicians should be accountable, but in a measured debate or one to one, and certainly not overspeaking when an answer is given.

      BrisslesI could agree with you more. Robust questioning should be accompanied with robust listening.
      However the modern ‘reporter’ appears to think that aggression and interruption are the order of the day. Especially when the interviewee’s opinions don’t agree with the interviewer. There is no balance anymore. And, if the wrong answer appears move on quickly and don’t linger. It is no longer about debate but baiting!

      I think you are right.

      ‘The media’ has destroyed politics by setting the agenda, often around trivia, and always trying to get them to ‘mis-speak’, to get the prize-winning ‘gotcha’ moment. As a result the careful politician keeps to the script, written by party PR staff, and never gets to explain a policy or for that matter receive reasonable feedback.

      There is now no nuance in debate – immigration, say, must be either none or ‘open doors’. This isn’t good for anyone – except for the media’s headline writers.

      ITTB has several good posts, and points to make, in complement. Here’s one:

      http://isthebbcbiased.blogspot.com/2018/11/other-views.html#

      FWIW, I think the WH (channeling the boss, or not, who knows?) made two related poor calls.

      They failed to stick with the simple fact that the guy is there to make a fuss, and about him and create as much heat as possible to obscure light. He plainly has and here abused his position. Then the WH tried to piggyback the #MeToo thing instead and, either by accident in trying to show the contact or design to make it look worse by monkeying with the edit. Backfire gift to those always baying for blood no matter what.

      However…

      I hark back to my youth when, at Uni, I was asked if, given a degree of respect and support (even pre-Falklands) for Mrs. T, I liked her. I replied that I didn’t expect, or need to like a national leader to find them suitable; just trust them to do a good job for the country. Would I seek out her company for a chat at a party? Likely not.

      And the best part was/is that she would have agreed with that 100%.

      Same with Trump. Personality-wise he comes across as an egomaniac boor, but by heavens he is canny and, by all accounts, effective on behalf of the interests of the majority of the US of A.

      Unlike Maggie, it’s a new era and the media, never that trustworthy themselves, are certainly no longer even remotely impartial, or afraid to try and undo each other in showing it. This does make governance even harder. Control the edit, etc…

      Would I trust DT as much as I did MT? No, and I didn’t trust her very much either; she was a politician. But at least I have more confidence they would stab you in the front. Personally.

      Obama… Cameron… Treezer… all in the back, and by a nod and wink, more often than not via their media buddies, especially the BBC.

      The posturing of all their big beasts is as pathetic as it is tribal, united as much by the mutual idealogical affections as their shared loathing of one man beyond the point of reason.

      Jim Acosta planned the whole thing, to poke the bear. And, predictably, the bear poked back.

      Acosta got what he wanted and needed, and is now milking it for all he is worth like a bully calling #TellMama to whinge that the nasty synagogue wouldn’t let him get near enough to firebomb. A few… very few, are acknowledging this.

      Katty is doubtless offering to marry Jimbo since her husband foolishly proposed to Harriet the other day due to using the BBC for information and not knowing the full story.

      But DT also may have scored in the trolling game again as the big election is over, done, and the next is a long way away. Whatever confected outrage the media will try to whip up, it is not going to assist with their impeachment dreams any more than before, and the public has moved on.

    On R4 Today at around 08:55 this morning, Mishal Husain conducted an item about an academic study that showed a relatively high proportion of homosexuals are depressed. Pop singer Will Young, himself a homosexual was in the studio to discuss with MH. WY admitted to having suffered depression in the past and one reason he gave for homosexuals being prone to depression was the misappropriation of the term ‘gay’, from meaning “happy” to being used as a pejorative to the detriment of homosexuals. Homosexuals being one of bBBC’s favoured groups, MH seemed to tacitly accept this assertion. My own recollection of events during my lifetime is that homosexuals hijacked the word.

    ” A black and white licence has one distinct advantage over its colour equivalent: it is a third of the price at £50.50 a year compared with £150.50.

    Neither does TV Licensing carry out checks of households claiming to watch a black and white set. “It’s entirely done on trust,” a spokesperson said. ”

    Double oh dear!

      7,000 still watch in black and white!

      Seems a bit unlikely as you would need a ‘Freeview’ box to convert the digital signal to analogue. In my experience these boxes aren’t very reliable and have to be replaced far more often than TVs.

      The other difficulty is that the first boxes effectively ‘broadcast’ a UHF signal that the TV could be tuned to as well as having a SCART socket, but that feature seems to have disappeared over the years, (and the SCART too!). In the days when I had to buy these boxes I found it quite hard to find out which ones contained the necessary modulator as the retailer often didn’t know either.

        I note that the areas referred to as claiming to watch black and white TVs are London, West Midlands, Manchester. Assuming Greater Manchester which includes Rochdale, Oldham etc. What do all these places have in common (apart from child rapes)?
        Could it be the same “communities” who ‘claim’ everything else…like benefits-or claiming to have lived in certain tower blocks…..? I wonder.

    Why? Why are we not highlighting how many Christians, Buddhists, Jews etc ?
    His secondary mission is to “balance the needs of Muslims with their operational duties” so no doubt making sure that Muslims get special treatment such as time to pray. Also making sure their dietary requirements are met-so basically pushing halal food etc onto everyone taking away their choice not to eat it.

    Attention comrades:

    I am pleased to report that Comrade Commissar Sarah Sands of the Today programme is continuing to fulfil her quota of daily agitprop as per Party requirements.

    This morning at 8.35am, she had on Mr Jeh Johnson, who was formerly Comrade President Obama’s Secretary of Homeland Security, and now is a director of the peace loving arms manufacturer Lockheed Martin.

    As per Party instructions, Comrade Johnson was listened to in respectful silence as he explained the reasons for the hated fascist Trump’s loss of the House. For ideological reasons, the fake news that the Trumpite Republicans gained Senate seats was not deemed suitable for broadcast.

    Comrade Commissar Sands is to be congratulated that once again she has maintained ideological purity, and only broadcast the views of the Democrats, whilst ignoring the fascist running dogs of the Trumpite Republicans.

    In so doing, Comrade Commissar Sands has upheld the proud traditions of the BBC for fairness and impartiality in its reporting. Surely the award of the Red Star of Obama cannot be long delayed for such a loyal comrade?

    The BBC’s coverage of the Acosta spat shows how corrupt and untrustworthy it really it as it dresses this up as a threat to democracy as the word warriors, the sacred journalistic seekers of truth are supposedly under attack by Trump…rather than legitimate criticism of them. Surely someone from on high should have sent out a memo saying handle this sort of thing with care…journalists reporting on journalists should be careful not to become part of the story and the defence. The BBC has failed miserably here….no surprise there.

    It is quite clear from the video that Acosta shoved the White House staffer’s arm out of the way as he hung on to the microphone but the BBC isn’t keen to admit that he did as you can see from their vague, ambiguous language….‘Acosta ‘resisted’ handing it over’…yes..by smacking down on her arm.

    ‘Jim Acosta was asking a question at a news conference on Wednesday when a White House worker tried to grab the microphone from his hands.

    Press secretary Sarah Huckerbee Sanders said access was removed because he had put “his hands on a young woman”.

    A female staff member attempted to take the microphone from the journalist, and Mr Acosta resisted handing it over telling her at one point “pardon me ma’am”.’

    The BBC even tries to claim the video has been altered by some right-wing conspiracy theorist….it hasn’t been altered at all….

    ‘The press secretary later shared a zoomed in clip of the incident, which observers say is a doctored video originally posted by right-wing conspiracy theorist Paul Joseph Watson.’

    The BBC put the defence….still photos that ‘prove’ Acosta didn’t do it…except they actually show his arm in position pushing down on the staffer’s arm in the second photo….

    https://twitter.com/jeffmason1/status/1060342568024711169/photo/1

    This journalist claimed he was sitting behind Acosta and didn’t see what was claimed…the reason he didn’t it was because he wasn’t looking as you can see from the photos he provides…he is the shaven headed, bald man to the rear left of Acosta…he is clearly looking away and not at the action.

    The BBC’s Sopel has to get in on the action….not on Trump’s side of course….

    Not there to ask easy questions, no, but Trump was in a 90 minute press conference answering all sorts of questions and not running away from them as Sopel suggests he was. Also when you’ve asked your allotted questions time’s up…hand over the mic and don’t push a girl out of the way.

    And as for this from Sopel….‘can’t help feeling this is a shiny object thrown for the media to chase when far more important things are happening.’

    Yes…how about Tucker Carlson, a Fox News journalist being attacked in hs own home by a left wing mob who also tried to smash their way into his home when his wife was there alone. He and his family have received threats of violence with baying mobs outside his home.

    https://twitter.com/bennyjohnson/status/1060373560747847681/video/1

    Is the BBC interested in this attempt to terrify and threaten a journalist? Doesn’t seem so, more interested in a minor spat with one of their ‘own’ being spun into a major story, a left-wing journalist who has made it his life’s work to attack Trump.

    Haven’t heard a thing about what has happened to Carlson whilst the BBC does fill the airwaves with the Acosta spat.

    Protesters Send Message to Tucker Carlson outside His Home: ‘We Know Where You Sleep at Night’

    ‘Smash Racism D.C., a self-described “anti-fascist” group, posted a video of their members screaming obscenities at Carlson’s house and blaming his “policies” for the deaths of thousands of people.

    “Tucker Carlson, we will fight!” the protesters chanted. “We know where you sleep at night!”

    Carlson said the protesters had blocked off both ends of his street and carried signs that listed his home address. The group called Carlson a “racist scumbag” and demanded that he “leave town,” according to posts on Twitter. A woman was also overheard in one of the deleted videos saying she wanted to “bring a pipe bomb” to his house, he said.

      The media are surprised about what they perceive as a “rise in far-right views” because they are not actually interested in what ordinary people think and cannot conceive that anyone could have views radically different from their own. When Thilo Sarrazin published his book “Deutschland schafft sich ab” (Germany abolishes ltself) in 2010 which pointed out the ongoing social difficulties caused by immigration from muslim countries using the governments own statistics the German media were gripped with moral panic and outrage. It sold 1.1 million copies wtithin weeks making it the most popular political book ever.

      “Political correctness is silencing an important debate” said Matthias Matussek (de) of Der Spiegel magazine. “Sarrazin’s findings on the failed integration of Turkish and Arab immigrants are beyond any doubt. He has been forced out of the Bundesbank. The SPD wanted to expel him from the party, too. Invitations previously extended to Sarrazin are being withdrawn. The culture page editors at the German weekly Die Zeit are crying foul and the editors at the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung are damning Sarrazin for passages he didn’t even write. But what all these technicians of exclusion fail to see is that you cannot cast away the very thing that Sarrazin embodies: the anger of people who are sick and tired—after putting a long and arduous process of Enlightenment behind them—of being confronted with pre-Enlightenment elements that are returning to the center of our society. They are sick of being cursed or laughed at when they offer assistance with integration. And they are tired of reading about Islamist associations that have one degree of separation from terrorism, of honor killings, of death threats against cartoonists and filmmakers.”

      These ideas were around at least a decade before the AfD success. The German media was simply too self-absorbed and arrogant to see the signs. The development of social media which gave the general populace the ability to shout what they thought into the ears of purposely deaf politicians and Merkel’s Folly have brought things to a head in Germany. No wonder the social media are under attack – you can’t have the plebs getting above themselves and expressing what they think. This is why the BBC prattles oncontinually about “tone”, “vulgar language”, “coarsening of the political debate” Not only have the lower orders been “emboldened” to question the sophisticated ideas of their betters but even choose to do so in language the BBC crowd find crude and offensive”. No wonder they hate Tommy Robinson so much.

    Trump supporting caller on Campbell’s show this morning…was asked to justify her support for a man who had, in Campbell’s own words and not ‘some might say’, ‘grotesque and ghastly views on climate change, immigration, Muslims and the disabled’.

    Just a slight amount of prejudice, ignorance and faux moral posturing from The Campbell.

    Perfectly sensible to be sceptical of all the claims around climate change, right to want to control immigration [and Trump wants it…just legal immigration…so not ‘anti-immigrant’ at all], right to control the freedom of movement from ‘countries of concern’, as defined by Obama, which happen to be Muslim,[whilst majority of Muslim countries still have freedom of movement to US…so where’s the Islamophobia?]..and as for the disabled thing…presumably Campbell refers to the video of Trump waving his arms about as he criticises someone who happens to be disabled….but Trump makes the same arm movements at many of his rallies as he lays into his opponents and critics….and they aren’t disabled. Cheap, lazy, fake ‘journalism’ from our national broadcaster spreading misinformation, prejudice and hate.

        Guest Who, Sluff – I’ve read somewhere that nearly every single transgender person later regrets having surgery and suffers depression as a result of it, a lot actually commit suicide. Even those who ‘get over it’ are going to have physical, mental and social problems for the rest of their lives. Overall, I’d say it’s something the medical profession really ought to be discouraging, and the BBC’s banging of the gong for it, is NOT helpful, especially for the poor fools who sign up to have it done.

        My take on it all, personally, is that there are a few (very few) real cases of people who think they’re in the wrong body (which is an unfortunate form of insanity… and ought to be dealt with as such), but the vast majority of ‘transgender’ types are merely desperate, and crazy, attention seekers.

        I’m not sure they’re that different to the freaks covered in tattoos and body piercings the BBC likes to tell us have a raw deal ‘because people judge them on their appearance…’… not as if it was self inflicted, or anything…

    BBC 1 6 pm news. Main story is the genuine issue of the high and increasing rates of Diabetes. This is ‘costing the NHS’…..errr….I think they mean ‘the taxpayer’, over a billion pounds a year in prescriptions alone.
    A white man who has lost a leg is featured. Then much is made of obesity, diet, and exercise.
    Yet strangely there was no mention at all of the effects of ethnicity. Which is rather odd in one way, as Pakistani and Bangla Deshi descendents are SIX times more likely to get .type 2 diabetes as white citizens. The factor for other South Asian and Africans is about three.
    Who says so ? UKIP? Tommy Robinson? The EDL?? Surely it must come from some extreme, ‘Far Right’ racist group?
    Errr, nope. Try Diabetes UK !!!!!!!!!!

        Paypal “discriminatory intolerance against certain communities and religions”

        We all know that means ONE particular “community” and religion.

        This is an utter disgrace. I am today going to close my Paypal account because I don’t agree with THEIR political views!
        I note that it was again reported as “EDL founder Tommy Robinson….”
        Are they going to close down Gerry Adams the “former founder of the IRA or Jeremy Corbyn the former sympathiser of the IRA” (allegedly) ??
        Absolute disgrace. We need a mass closure of PayPal accounts and close them @ssholes down!

        This is, as Tommy says, very sinister. We trust these companies to handle our money yet they can just decide to ‘freeze’ your account rendering your money inaccessible for 180 days without explanation until the 180 days expire? How can that even be legal? Denying access to your own money!

    Radio 4 6pm news. Item on Asia Bibi (potentially negative for islam) immediately followed by item on the Chinese oppression of the Uighers (poor oppressed islam), about how Han chinese are sent to live in Uighers homes to see whether anyone is showing signs of extremism and if so they are candidates for being sent to the retraining camps.

    This seems to be an example of the media tricks where anything that reflects badly on islam must, for fairness of course, be followed by an example of islam being cuddly and nice. You see this in the letters in newspapers, as if the editor can’t let bad islam item sand alone.

    Perhaps I’m reading too much into it.

    Anyway, normally I would be opposed to the heavy hand of the state intefering in people’s private lives but I’m more inclined to cheer the Chinese for trying to do something about their muslim problem to forestall the inevitable call for a separate islamic state on their western border and the seepage into main China by enthusiatic reproduction.

      Is it me or does Al Beeb sound pleased that Asia Bibi hasn’t been lifted out of Pakistan?
      Pakistan blasphemy case: Asia Bibi freed from jail http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-46130189

      Or that the government are being pressured into retrial under Sharia Law?
      Where is the outrage? Amnesty? Feminazis? All over a cup of water.
      Trump of course was right. Shithole.
