Category Archives: That’s Magic

The slot between 8am and 8.30am is the prime-time for listenership on Radio 4 so I was surprised that the BBC decided to allocate valuable time here to the Magic Act Penn and Teller. Even more remarkable the primary angle of the story was to explore the Pair’s Atheism! I’m not saying there was bias here but I found the placing of this story and the angle of it odd. I wonder if Penn and Teller had been devout Christians would the BBC have been so keen to run the non-story?
