It’s remarkable the number of articles the BBC can run, like this, on the topic of Malaria without ever ONCE mentioning the fact that DDT remains the most practical and effective means of controlling it. Why? I think the BBC still accepts the entirely discredited drivel “Silent Spring” served up by Rachel Carson decades ago – the consequences of which are millions of lost lives caused by the de facto … Continue reading
Wonder what you make of the news that the BBC’s annual taxi bill for ferrying guests to programmes has soared by an astonishing £2million? In the last financial year it spent 5.3million on transporting contributors, up 60 per cent on the previous £3.3million. With more broadcasting planned from the BBC’s new regional centre in Salford – even though many guests will have to be brought up from London – taxi … Continue reading
The BBC is a great front for the propagandising of the militant gay agenda. Reading through this report of “openly gay” US Bishop Gene Robinson’s sermon in a London church today is a perfect example of the BBC modus operandi. It starts off by subtly praising the bravery of the gay Robinson, then contrasts this with the boorish behaviour of the ONE protestor in the audience – a man lucky … Continue reading
. Not a day passes without the BBC leading the charge against the professionalism and integrity of our Armed Forces. Little wonder the Jihadists figure that the biggest damage that can be carried out on the British Army is by the British media, with the BBC to the fore. This past week has carries stories of plummeting moralE, now abuse, compensations for torture – you name it and the BBC … Continue reading
. Is it heretical to view Nelson Mandela as anything other than a latter day saint? I think the BBC believes this to be the case based on this unctuous piece entitled “Why everyone wants a piece of Mandela” by Peter Biles. This article really takes the biscuit in sanitising Mandelas’ past, carefully paving over any valid criticisms of the former ANC leader. You see it’s not that I don’t … Continue reading
Hats off to the United Nations, once again it has demonstrated it’s undisputed position as the world’s highest moral authority by vetoing sanctions against Zimbabwean tyrant Mugabe. The only bit that confuses me is when this repoer states that ” A BBC correspondent at the UN says the failure of the resolution will be a major blow for the United States and Britain.” Eh? Surely it will be a major … Continue reading

Anyone watch the Student Grant produced edition of Question Time tonight? Was it just me or was the ethnicity mix of the audience seriously disproportionate to the UK population? Again. Maybe it was Grange Hill that provided the student numbers? I thought the student on the panel was mostly sensible but the left wing hectoring of the failed “Apprentice” women Saira “Bless Gordon” Khan was dreadful to behold. (Say “Oil” … Continue reading
. Well, you all seemed to have plenty to say about BBC1’s absolutely ridiculous “Christkickers” sorry I mean “Bonekickers” so I bet you just can’t wait to tune in to BBC2’s forthcoming “Burn Up”! It’s a “two-part, provocative drama set in the real-life context of climate change”. It gets better! This ..ahem…”topical thriller sees oil company executives, environmental activists and politicians collide in the battle between economic success and ecological … Continue reading
David Vance posted about how the BBC declined to describe the Palestinian who killed Israeli civilians with a bulldozer as a terrorist. Here are three more posts about BBC coverage of that act of terrorism that speak for themselves: Honest Reporting – Caught: BBC’s Shocking First Response to Terror Attack Freeborn John – Bulldozer driver murdered The Monkey Tennis Centre – BBC plays ‘Guess the Victims’ over Jerusalem attack.
