I have had a deluge of emails from enraged B-BBC readers in recent days over the way in which the State Broadcaster has chosen to cover the “Climategate” issue. When you see how the BBC is gushing over the way in which Brown has cynically hijacked the Commonwealth summit to evangelise further on AGW, I share their pain. It seems to me that the AGW industry is coming under some … Continue reading
Paul Hudson, the BBC weatherman who in October was forwarded some of the Climategate emails (those relating to his article “What happened to global warming?“) has been gagged by the BBC. From the Hull Daily Mail: When contacted by the Mail, the weatherman said he was not allowed to comment and asked us to speak to the BBC press office.A BBC spokesperson said: “Paul wrote a blog for the BBC … Continue reading
James Delingpole, of the Daily Telegraph, here, has an excellent assessment of Roger Harrabin’s role in reporting what is now being called Climategate. Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
Diane Abbott MP, as those who worked with her in the early days of TV-am will attest, is not the brightest tool in the box. But she knows a political opportunity when she sees it. Last night – miracle of miracles – the BBC1 programme on which she reguarly appears, This Week, mentioned “climate change”, and there was a sensible exchange between Michael Portillo and Andrew Neil in which the … Continue reading

With the Global Cooling Sceptics Deniers in full retreat now that the CRU scandal seems to have spread to New Zealand, the BBC are wheeling out any excuse for a we’re all doomed story…even if it flatly contradicts a previous example of how we are, errr, all doomed. On the BBC, today: Nigeria’s most celebrated environmental campaigner is about to launch a reality TV show to highlight the dangers of … Continue reading
From this morning’s Today programme (06.30-ish), here’s BBC political correspondent Norman Smith commenting on the Tories’ claims that government money has gone to schools run by Hizb Ut-Tahrir activists: “It does seem to me to raise questions, too, about judgement and tone. Judgement as to whether it is appropriate to make such very serious allegations in this way, and although the Tories say that if they hadn’t raised it in … Continue reading
One day, the story of how climate change hysteria took over the BBC will be told. Just like CRU, they have disgracefully refused FoI requests to reveal how they shadily arrived at the outrageous political decision to back the scam with every sinew and every resource at their disposal. Meanwhile, their journalists continue to act like bigoted charlatans when they discuss anything to do with the topic. This morning, Today … Continue reading

As usual we will be following the occasion with a live-chat which will … Continue reading
