When it was announced Big Ben was being silenced for four years I thought it was a story about James Chapman…perhaps he’d been neutered until Brexit was over and his madness suppressed. Apparently though Big Ben is a big clock not a big cock. Just why does the BBC give him so much airtime and his ravings so much coverage and credence? Instead of telling us the very, very … Continue reading
If there’s one cliché question that people associate with media training, it’s this one: “When did you stop beating your wife?” It’s offered as an example of an (almost) impossible question to answer well, since most people will look guilty when they deny the charge. Imagine, for example, that Senator Smith answers the question by saying: “I’m offended by that. I never beat my wife, and how dare … Continue reading
Big Brother wants to know all about you…..the BBC’s collection of personal information as you register for the iPlayers was passed off as a an attractive positive that meant they could personalise and tailor their service to you and your watching habits. Of course it was mainly a means to try and force you to sign up to the licence fee had you not done so but it does have … Continue reading
Here you go, a new Open Thread. The BBC disgusts me at the best of times BUT last night (Friday) on it’s 10PM BBC1 news, it chose to entirely ignore the Jihad killings in Finland. What an abhorrence of a broadcaster.
The Left’s intention is to destroy the Western world and remake it as utopian multicultural paradise. What the Left seems to miss is that the West is, for all its faults, the best of all possible worlds and that when they destroy it the world doesn’t get better it gets much, much worse and descends into third world squalor, poverty and violence as those wonderful multicultural Western paradises turn … Continue reading
Sarah Brett on 5 Live asserted as fact that Breitbart was a Far-Right publication and that its readership was mainly white supremacists. Perhaps Breitbart should get the lawyers in. The BBC has also been snearing at Trump all day for his latest comments about the destruction or removal of Confederate statues… US President Donald Trump has denounced the removal of “beautiful” Confederate statues amid a heated national debate about … Continue reading
The German reaction is particularly strong – they know what they're talking about. https://t.co/OlySc6mhCs — Katty Kay (@KattyKayBBC) August 16, 2017 Shouldn’t the Far-Left also be confronted?…surely Germany knows all about them as well having been under the communist jackboot for half a century, never mind all those millions imprisoned, tortured and killed by Socialists across the world. Maybe that’s just too sophisticated an argument for poor old Katty Kay … Continue reading
R4 has a series on the Internet and its creation and development….Aleks in Wonderland: The Story of the Internet: Just how did the Internet become the most powerful communications medium on the planet, and why does it seem to be an uncontrollable medium for good and bad? With no cross border regulation the internet can act as an incredible force for connecting people and supporting human rights and … Continue reading
Here you go, a brand new Open Thread. BBC anti-Trump derangement syndrome currently severe!
Muslim fundamentalists set off bombs in the UK killing and injuring hundreds, Muslim fundamentalists launch attacks on British citizens driving vehicles into them killing and injuring them, Muslim fundamentalists attack British citizens with knives in the street, Muslim fundamentalists impose their religion upon schools using intimidation and deception, Muslim fundamentalists use the race card to ‘blackmail’ government and institutions to bow to their demands, Muslims who see them as … Continue reading
