Google Pox

  The BBC continues its blitz against the social media platforms…this time it’s Google who have been, apparently, promoting fake news about the blessed Obama….just what made the BBC’s Rory Cellan-Jones choose ‘Obama’ as his chosen subject?  He could have chosen any number of subjects that revealed the same issue such as Greg’s Bakery or the UK flag in order to show how Google’s algorithms produce some peculiarities….but no, he … Continue reading

May Day

  Another election on June 8th….should have been on the 6th….considering. The BBC going negative already?…..only one positive voice on this vox pop…as usual from the Beeb…and why pick Bristol…a very pro-Remain area?…. Does Brenda speak for you?   Don’t know about Brenda but the BBC certainly doesn’t speak for me. My sympathies to the News-Watch crew who will be having some sleepless days and nights ahead as they undoubtedly … Continue reading

A world without the BBC?

  Where would we be without the BBC left to the mercies of the market driven corporate media? The BBC  naturally  is excellent value at less than 50p a day…but as with say the Pound Shop all is not as it seems and that ‘value’ looks distinctly underwhelming as the goods bought fall apart all too quickly or on closer scrutiny you discover they cost less because there is less … Continue reading

Any chance she works for the BBC?

  Surely she works for the BBC…a ‘free inhabitant’, she belongs to the Earth, she does not belong to any corporation or any country, she recognises no sovereignty, no borders, no laws…US laws have no jurisdiction over ‘human beings’…..nevertheless she does claim all the rights and protections of a US citizen….as the cop says…that way lies anarchy…..one day the BBC journo’s may grow up……          

Your Future’s Broken….er….Brexit

    Never mind kids…you know the answer…get educated….learn to shoot…you know it makes sense kiddies, especially as your liberal mummy and daddy now think guns are a good idea in Trumptopia…your future depends upon it…. Gun ownership has traditionally been associated with the right wing in America but the election of Donald Trump has prompted some left-wingers to join gun clubs   Always curious how the BBC is constantly … Continue reading

Feeling the Luvvies’ Pain

    So we’re all agreed, Trump stole the US election and Brexit was won on a lie…but who is to blame, who can we point the finger at, who is the guilty man or men? The BBC knows…it was the Russians….no!  It was the sinister underground network of neo-Nazis on the web…no!!! It was the sheer ignorance, stupidity, bigotry and prejudice of Leave voters…no!!! no!!! no!!! It was a … Continue reading

The Great Bore War

  The BBC can’t seem to help itself, especially as it doesn’t have to be balanced anymore according to Nick Robinson, it pumps out endless alarmist nonsense about a Far-Right on the brink of power along with fantastical tales of how secret internet warriors stole the election for Trump…and Brexit.  The BBC is going mad.  All sense of reality and perspective have vanished to be replaced with the very thing … Continue reading

Jewish Settlers…just undocumented migrants surely

  Thanks to Stewgreen for the link to the NUJ’s guidelines on how journalists should report on race. This piece of advice provoked a thought….. ‘A fairer term to use for someone who has outstayed their visa is “undocumented” or “irregular”.’ Hmmm…but the BBC uses the term to describe illegal immigrants and not people who overstay their visa…who wouldn’t be migrants as such. And why aren’t Israeli settlers ‘undocumented migrants’ … Continue reading
