Category Archives: Bill Gates. BBC narratives in play

Anyone catch Bill Gates on the BBC this morning? Quite an interesting interview here. I note that he was asked to choose “between Mitt Romney and Obama”  – not that the BBC have an agenda in play when it comes to who will contest the White House, perish the thought! He was also used to help convey the idea that British Overseas Aid is unreservedly “a good thing” and that capitalism had lost track in recent years. He gave quite a good defence of capitalism – understandably. It’s interesting to see that even a high profile figure like Bill Gates is actually used by the BBC to advance its own narrative on so many issues.
