Always interesting and instructive what the BBC deems newsworthy and what it deems to be worthwhile covering up. Here are three perfect illustrations of this from recent times showing how the BBC covers up information that is damaging to its favoured races, religions, groups and ideologies. The first is in fact a double hit, two for one for the BBC (a BBC still taking money from the EU … Continue reading →

      The BBC’s leftist programme of rewriting of history continues apace. The BBC website proudly announces a new series that Lord Hall Hall hopes will influence children’s minds and win them over to the BBC world view….Simon Schama and Mary Beard to present major BBC art series. Simon Schama, Mary Beard and David Olusoga are to present a major 10-part BBC Two series on the story of art … Continue reading →

Here you go, a new open thread for the weekend! Detail the bias here please.

  Storm Desmond brought out the scaremongers and ‘storm chasers’ who want to blame it on man-made causes….the rainfall was said to be the heaviest ever recorded…and of course temperatures generally said to be record breaking. However things ain’t what they seem, it depends on which statistic you look at. The highest temperature in the UK was in 2003 and if you look at record temperatures by month they are … Continue reading →

    We’re going to look at the BBC Trust’s politically driven decision to censure, silence, Quentin Letts and his programme about the Met. Office.  In light of that here’s a warm up with some questions about the Met. Office’s conclusions drawn from the ‘science’…… This is the key paragraph in a Met. Office report on climate change….

    Curious that no one mentions the obvious thought when during ‘Storm Desmond’ a waterfall burst into life….the first time in maybe 200 years or longer…….the obvious thought being there must have been ‘unprecedented’ rainfall back then….how is such an ‘extreme’ explained away 200 years ago?  What trick do they use to hide the decline in credibility of claims of unprecedented rainfall? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WCiLzOWBy4     It is odd how … Continue reading →

David Dimbleby presents this week’s debacle from Slough. On the panel are Mark Reckless of Ukip, Conservative MP Jacob Rees-Mogg, journalist Piers Morgan and Labour’s Emily Thornberry MP. Yes she really still is an MP, her electorate voted her back in even after WhiteVanManEnglandFlagTwittergate. This week’s manadatory SNP representative is Hannah Bardell MP. Thank BBC Scotland for that. Kick off tomorrow (Thursday) at 22.35 Chat here Register here if necessary.

Joyful reporting from the BBC as my part of the world gets its first dosage of Syrian refugees. It does not appear to have crossed the BBC’s mind that since these “refugees” have been hoisted upon us not everyone shares the emulation! It also ensures voices of dissent are well and truly muted.  

Here you go, on-time and for your completion. Detail the bias here!

  Bishop Hill mentions this book: Superforecasting: The Art and Science of Prediction He tells us… Specialists are considerably worse at making predictions than generalists – is now quite well known, although less so among the general public and media than it should be. The generalist forecasters were better than the experts because…’ It was more about independence of mind, the ability to constantly recalibrate and to question assumptions, the … Continue reading →
