Gigits has an excellent post here picking up on the BBC’s increasingly freakish attempts to try and prop up McDoom. Of course they know that he is a busted flush but then there is the lovely Sarah – she who is a member of the “First wives club” apparently… Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
What at first seemed like a straightforward controversy over war ethics has turned into one about irresponsible journalism. The original question asked:Should soldiers be compelled to risk their own lives by adhering strictly to military rules of engagement even when, in the fog and extreme chaos of war, they are faced with an unpredictable and fanatical enemy which is under no such obligation?Now, I’m asking:Is the media ever justified in … Continue reading
Ah to be at the BBC, where it’s summertime and the living is easy.

The BBC have given £45,000 to the head of the Muslim Council of Britain, Muhammad Abdul Bari, to settle a legal case brought by him against the BBC for comments made by Charles Moore on Question Time in March. Charles Moore accused the MCB “leadership” of failing to condemn attacks on British soldiers, thereby implicitly condoning them, and this was deemed libellous of Mr Bari.

The BBC attack on the Conservatives is ongoing. Just consider; The Andy Coulson attack story is being kept alive here. This is despite the fact that it has no no legs whatsoever. Meanwhile on the PM programme, I listened to Eddie Mair running a shock horror story about how poor old David Cameron’s Conservatives are linked to a Polish politician who allegedly made “homophobic” comments – NINE year ago! Is … Continue reading
The traditional family unit remains the very best bastion against the growth of the State. One of the devastating consequences of decades of marriage breakdown here in the UK has been the resultant weakening of the family unit – so allowing Nanny State to enter our lives, interfere and contort things. I rather think the BBC appr0ves of this so that may go some way to explaining why a programme … Continue reading
OK – so we go live later this evening and here is the panel for your edification. We have media opportunist liberal Lembit Opik, then there is phew wot a scorcher Conservative parliamentary candidate Margot James, (the new Nadine Dorries now she is mad); there is Trasha from garbage TV, and of course we shouldn’t forget FT Editor Lionel Barber; finally there is lovely boy Chris Bryant from the Rhondda. … Continue reading
I think that Stephen Glover has quite a perspicacious article here on the subject of how the BBC operates as a multimedia more powerful version of the Guardian. As a publicly owned broadcaster funded by the licence payer, it is supposedto eschew partisan or biased stories with a political agenda. In this case,the newspaper lobbed a grenade into David Cameron’s back yard by targetingAndy Coulson. The BBC blindly followed suit. … Continue reading

“Just in case you’d been distracted by trivial, parochial concerns like BBC salaries and British soldiers coming home in coffins, it’s our duty to remind you once more about the real scandal. The Israelis.” “Lest you forget, we must tell you again about the war crimes, human rights violations and abuses that took place in Gaza! What’s more the BBC didn’t even have to uncover the scandal because Israelis blabbed … Continue reading
