If you have ever wondered what the sound of somebody being publicly nonplussed sounds like check out Mishal Husain’s interview with David Attenborough (08:55), asked on to comment about butterflies only to find himself being interrogated on that ‘celebrity letter’ defending the BBC. Now fair do’s to Mishal Husain for asking the questions…did he sign the document and did someone at the BBC ‘encourage’ him to do so? Attenborough … Continue reading →

I am sure that you, like me, will have been deeply moved by BBC “star” Lenny Henry’s moving words in defence of the Corporation in its print arm, The Guardian! “Without its support, my career would have come to an early halt, I wouldn’t have set up my own production company … and it made me brave on diversity” I think what Lenny is really saying is that he believes … Continue reading →

Quite remarkable really. Another fanatical Islamist called Mohammad murders four US marines and it does not merit a a slot on the BBC Main news page. To get the details you have to jump to the World page and there you will enjoy the BBC doing everything possible to disconnect Mohammad from Islam. The default “Lone Wolf” theory is instantly applied just in case it becomes impossible to keep Islamic fanaticism … Continue reading →

Well, the weekend beckons. Here is a new Open Thread for you to detail the bias! Just think, each instance of bias causes Lenny Henry to shed a tear.

  Four US Marines in America have been killed by a ‘Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez’ who has his supporters in ISIS apparently …via Pamela Geller..not sure the time stamp is correct…possibly tweeted after the shooting…   However the account(Now suspended) does make some threats for similar action in London, Berlin and Amsterdam.       Wonder if the coppers will still be passing by as people wonder around with ISIS flags … Continue reading →

Busy day. I have been afforded the opportunity to comment on the future of the BBC itself on BBC Scotland, BBC 5Live and BBC London today. In essence, my argument is that the BBC is an anachronism, built on a financial model from a previous century that is TOTALLY unsuitable to digital 2015. The tide of history is going out and the BBC is being left high and dry on … Continue reading →

      Remember that letter from the luvvies lavishing praise on the BBC? The Telegraph reports that the Times has discovered that ‘BBC Radio 1’s longest-serving presenter Annie Nightingale, who is one of the letter’s 29 signatories, said she had been invited to be a signatory by Ben Cooper, the controller of Radio 1. She the paper: “I bumped into Ben a couple of days ago. He said Danny … Continue reading →

    As we noted in the last post Jeremy Corbyn has edged ahead in the Labour leadership polls at present.  He’s a lucky man having just got the endorsement of the Unite Union and Len McCluskey…and we know just how good they are at picking winners…the last one sank like a stone, an Ed stone….this time McCluskey backs Corbyn because he’s not boring..the ‘interesting’ Jeremy Corbyn….that’ll get ’em voting. … Continue reading →

  This should be interesting…let’s see how much the Beeboid’s socialist posturing continues to be pumped across the airwaves when hardcore Jezza gets in…are they still up for a bit of socailism, red in tooth and claw?…. Jeremy Corbyn set to win Labour leadership, shock poll reveals The latest polling, seen by the New Statesman, puts Mr Corbyn ahead once second preference votes have been taken into account. On first … Continue reading →

    Curious how the BBC frames the debate about the agreement with Iran over nuclear weapons on its Frontpage….. Obama foes condemn Iran nuclear deal They don’t oppose the deal because of genuine, considered reasons but because they hate the black guy in the White House? Jeremy Bowen is claiming that the agreement is a major achievement as it removes Iran’s nuclear capability…. The agreement in Vienna removes Iran’s … Continue reading →
