Category Archives: BBC bias

Monday morning and a new week of relentless BBC bias for you to bring to our attention….

You can almost hear BBC hearts a beating at the prospect of a “Gotcha moment” when they reported this news this morning.

An imam and his assistant were shot dead as they walked along a street in the New York borough of Queens. The men were approached from behind by a man who shot them both in the head, a police spokesman said. Imam Maulama Akonjee, 55, moved to the city from Bangladesh two years ago, US media reported. Some mosque-goers said they believed it was a hate crime but police said there was as yet no evidence that the men were targeted because of their faith.

I would have thought ALL murder was by definition “hate crime” but that’s not the point. You just KNOW that all those at the BBC were desperate that this would be a cut and dried case of Islamophobia leading to the death of these two men. Then, the NYPD released this image of a man said to have .. coughs … “a medium complexion”..

Norwegian?

Have a look at this story currently on the BBC NEWS page;

A brawl between three families of North African descent and local youths erupted on a beach on the French island of Corsica on Saturday, leaving five people injured, officials have said. Witnesses said the brawl between locals and a party of bathers of Northern African origin began after the bathers objected to photos being taken. Some of those involved were armed with hatchets and harpoons, a witness said.

Mmm. “North African origin” “Hatchets”…. might we be getting a somewhat sanitised version of what actually happened? Is it an outside possibility that these were ….Muslim illegal immigrants? The BBC won’t tell you when they have convenient euphemisms to deploy. Half the truth, at best, all the time. And you pay for it.

Every day, the BBC is relentlessly spinning against Donald Trump. It is overt, it IS biased and it needs flagged up. Here’s the latest PR from Camp Clinton faithfully broadcast by the BBC…

Hillary Clinton has released her tax returns, adding to the pressure on her Republican rival for the White House, Donald Trump, to do the same. The Democratic presidential candidate paid an effective federal tax rate of 34.2% last year.

Now the Clinton’s are steeped in financial scandal but the BBC is determined to present her as the gold standard in financial probity. Maybe the BBC could enquire as to when she will release her HEALTH records?

In WW2, had a young British woman legged it to Germany to give succour to the Nazis, I doubt that even the BBC back then would have dared exude sympathy towards her. Then, had she been killed by Allied air strikes, that would have been the end of it. One less traitor.

Fast forward to 2016….

“A Labour MP has expressed “huge concerns” about the counter-terrorism strategy in UK schools, after reports one of three east London teenagers who fled to Syria has been killed. Kadiza Sultana, who joined so-called Islamic State (IS) last year, is feared to have died in a Russian air strike in Raqqa, her family solicitor has said. She was 16 when she left Bethnal Green with two friends from the same school. Labour’s Rushanara Ali said the Prevent strategy needed a “proper assessment”. Ms Ali, MP for Bethnal Green and Bow told BBC Radio 4’s Today Programmethe government needed to establish “what’s working and what’s not”.

I’ll tell you what not working – Islamic State and the sooner we level it to the ground and all those Islamofascist scum who fight for it and give it succour the better. The BBC has been taking a very sympathetic approach to this traitor all day. Tough. The BBC could ask what drives “British’ girls like Sultana to join terror cults. The answer is one they avoid at ALL costs – Islam.

Ok – weekend is here and so is a new Open Thread. Detail the bias here!!

Two stories, guess which one the BBC chooses to lead with and which one it chooses to totally ignore.

Donald Trump defends the 2nd Amendment (translated by BBC that he wants Hillary Clinton assassinated)

and…

Father of the Orlando nightclub Islamist mass murderer backs Hillary Clinton. 

Every day, the BBC seems intent to whip up a storm of protest against Donald Trump whilst sanitising the grotesque Clinton. Why does it think that it can influence the outcome of the US Presidential election? Just like with Brexit, the BBC discards even the pretence of impartiality and cheers on Hillary Clinton.

Here you go, a brand new Open Thread for you to detail the bias!

Had to laugh as the BBC has consistently blamed every negative event on Brexit…not quite everything….the Today programme’s editor claims its latest listener figures are nothing to do with listeners tuning in for information about Brexit….have to say the BBC is probably right…after all who would rely on the BBC’s premier disseminator of tripe for unbiased news on Brexit?

Jamie Angus Verified account ‏@grvlx001

There’s always one…

Nice to see Mason admits his true loyalties:

The real challenge is to make this leadership campaign the springboard for winning a general election. That, in turn, demands we spell out an alternative political strategy to the one inherited from Blair, Brown and Ed Miliband.

But just what is about Corbyn that has the Establishment running for cover?

They are not scared of Jeremy Corbyn…They are scared of YOU

People power.  Precisely what terrifies the BBC as well….look how they react to Brexit.  Curiously the BBC is unfazed by Corbyn and is almost totally uncritical of him whilst others, most others, have serious, serious concerns about his policies, not least his attitude towards Jews and his friendship with Islamist terrorists.

Contrast that respectful tone they adopt for Corbyn with how the BBC attacks and demonises Trump who is on a roll for the same reasons Corbyn is but perhaps coming from the opposite side of the argument.  Trump is anti-Establishment, anti the status quo and he’s stirring things up saying things that the Left want to suppress and keep out of the public debate….and he’s very popular.

The video below is a perfect example of the way that the liberal, self-professed elite sneer at Trump and wilfully ignore the paradox, the self-contradictory claims the video maker produces as he elaborately dissects a Trump interview in which Trump speaks perfectly normally, coherently and rationally.  This is interpreted as a childish and deviously manufactured manner of speaking…designed by Trump to raise emotions without imparting facts or reasoning…personally I thought Trump was telling the unvarnished truth and was explaining himself clearly and simply.  Such a way of speaking is apparently dishonest and manipulative….and apparently you can’t call him smart or well informed.

Note at the end the video maker say that the Public is reacting against all those politicians who sounded sophisticated but achieved nothing…and yet he believes that such sophisticated politicians are still the credible way forward.  Ironically his own video is a perfect example of his own argument…a polished, sophisticated presentation by an intelligent and articulate speaker that is essentially using all that sophistication as a veneer to hide the ugly truth…that this is a video that is solely intent on being a hatchet job, a sneering, thuggish, elitist put down of Trump.  There is no real intelligence behind the argument…there is no real argument….it is contradictory…telling us that sophistication is a sign of authority and credibility and yet telling us that the politicians who are sophisticated achieved precisely nothing, they did not carry out all those promises they so glibly fed the masses in order to get elected.  Trump comes on and tells it like it is, hiding nothing, speaking the language of the ‘common man’, not dressing up his controversial policies in fine sounding words and sentiments, and he is attacked for his honesty…and his ability to get things done…..

I have no doubt the man who made this video will be welcome on Newsnight anytime as a presenter…..

The BBC are taking liberties as they hijack George Orwell and try to present him as if all the things he represented are the same values and beliefs that inspires and motivates the BBC.

They are not.

What Orwell represents and fought for is the exact opposite of the highly fabricated news output that the BBC shapes and constructs in order not to provide us with genuine information but to alter our perceptions, views and behaviour so that they fall into line as near as possible with the BBC’s own or at least make stepping outside the BBC’s self-approved narrative a dangerous action as you soon find yourself labelled a right-wing,  Facist, racist, Islamophobic, homophobic, sexist little Englander.  Your career will be over as you suddenly become ‘tainted’.

All of which makes the following the most ridiculous and ironic thing you may have heard in a while….

No longer ‘too left-wing’ for the BBC: George Orwell to stand outside original ‘Ministry of Truth’

He was the great scourge of faceless bureaucracy, political propaganda, doublethink, waffle and pretentious language.

So it seems apt that George Orwell should be honoured with a statute outside the headquarters of the BBC.

The work, expected to be unveiled next year, will show the author of Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four – whose real name was Eric Blair – looming over the entrance to the building where he once toiled fruitlessly, deep in thought, a cigarette in one hand.

A quotation carved into the wall next to him will offer timely advice to contemporary BBC staff reading: “If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.”

The BBC think it their job to make sure people don’t hear what they need to hear…you won’t get the truth about immigration from the BBC, you won’t get the truth about Islam from the BBC, you won’t get the truth about the EU from the BBC, you won’t get the truth about Israel from the BBC and you won’t get the truth about Jeremy Corbyn from the BBC.

Perhaps the quote carved into the wall should be altered slightly to reflect the true state of BBC ‘journalism’…

“If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what the BBC does not want them to hear.”

And that’s why sites like this exist…as the BBC might say itself…….

The bronze would be a powerful reminder of the role of the citizen journalist in “holding the BBC to account”.
