Yesterday morning climate change sceptic Ian Plimer was interviewed on the Today programme. This stunning occurrence caused outrage among eco-activists. The Media Lens message board went nuclear wind turbine over the issue. Among the many who complained to the BBC was Green Party councillor Dr Rupert Read. The response he received from Today programme assistant editor Roger Hermiston included this admission: We reflect the orthodoxy in the climate change debate, … Continue reading →

Simmering below the surface at the BBC is the very thing the Guardian practices overtly. What restrains the BBC from outright denunciation of Jews and their shitty little country is the wretched obligation for impartiality written into the pesky BBC charter. The Guardian has no such obligations (other than to remain saleable enough to keep going, which rumour says might not be for long.) When it was launched I passed … Continue reading →

Amid fears of a possible anti-Muslim backlash after the attack, President Obama has stressed the multinational diversity in the US armed forces. “They are Americans of every race, faith, and station. They are Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus and non-believers. “They are descendants of immigrants and immigrants themselves. They reflect the diversity … Continue reading →

I note that the BBC has been running with the government initiated suggestion by King’s College London expert Professor Sube Banerjee that the inappropriate use of Dementia drugs is killing some 1800 people.

I caught … Continue reading →

Hi – been away and just back so time for a few posts. But first… I see that David Dimbleby is to miss chairing BBC One’s Question Time for the first time in more than 15 years after being injured in a “minor farming accident”.
