..the illegal immigrant sleeps tonight! Did anyone catch Andrew Hosken’s take on the plight of all those poor illegal migrants hitherto gathered together in “the jungle” at Calais but now scattered a bit further by the wicked Frencg? How one-sided was that? These illegals are continually portrayed as victims and never a mention of the reason why the risk life and limb to clamber into the UK. The BBC seems … Continue reading
I’m guessing that “Woman’s Hour” may not feature on every B-BBC readers daily repertoire of essential listening! That said, I happened to tune into it the other day and was regaled by Jenni Murray making the statement “Suppose you are walking along worrying about carbon emissions and you go to buy a punnet of blackberries”… Yeah, right. Then I heard a trailer for the show today which will feature Margaret … Continue reading

Watching the latest video from the excellent Evan Coyne Maloney (“Rise and Fall of ObamaMarketing“), in which he contrasts the goofy support for Obama on inauguration day with the subsequent dramatic fall-off in sales for Obama merchandise, reminded me of a couple of BBC correspondents who were very keen to display their own celebratory items following The One’s election: That’s Anita Anand in the Obama hat and Richard Bacon admiring … Continue reading
Katya Adler’s report for Newsround Tuesday 13th October. BBC Newsround. “Heading to school in Gaza, 9 year-old Huda and her brother and sister set off from their temporary home. Their real one was bombed in a war against Israel.” “Their school came under attack too.” “Israel says it bombed the school to protect its own soldiers from attack. 42 people were killed including two children. Some of the classrooms were … Continue reading
A Biased BBC reader has drawn my attention to the BBC coverage of the Jihadist attacks in Pakistan. The issue concerns the BBC’s use of the word “audacious” in describing these nihilistic bloodthirsty acts of Jihad. This in turn carries echoes of the BBC coverage of the Mumbai Jihad atrocities which were “daring” apparently. It is almost as if the BBC admires those who set out to kill and maim … Continue reading
Another day and another item on global warming alarmism. Here you can listen to Professor Peter Wadhams suggest the Arctic ocean could be ice free during the summer in as little as 10 years. If true, this would be great news for the global economy. Not sure the BBC see it in those terms thiugh! The global warming fetishists keep lowering the date by which the Arctic will be ice … Continue reading
Anyone watching the Green “debate” on Newsnight? Three panellists and all points of view so long so long as they are eco-wackists Emily Maitlis frames the question “How can we stop climate change” LOL – just super bias. Hey Emily – how can we stop the Earth from turning? Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
Tomorrow should be interesting. I’m recording a contribution for BBC NI “Hearts and Minds” TV programme due to be broadcast tomorrow evening. In essence I have a three minute spot to say whatever I want on local political matters. However I am led to believe that there is a protest planned for outside the BBC Headquarters in Belfast for allowing the BNP onto Question Time next week so I hope … Continue reading
A day is not a proper day in BBC land unless the reputation of Israel has been further besmirched. And so it is with this excuse of a report which alleges that must end “unfair” detentions. On the matter of fact, the detainees concerned are terrorist suspects, hence the anguish in BBC circles. Once again, the far-left B’Tselem group (and Hamoked) is behind this agitation. The BBC is careful to … Continue reading
