Just caught a film on BBC News 24 which owed more to the adman’s art than the journalist’s, it being pure propaganda with soft music and images and sentiments designed to induce guilt and sympathy for immigrants.   It was solely designed for one purpose…..to tug on your heart strings and persuade you with a large helping of emotional blackmail to fling open the borders and let the world in.  … Continue reading →

    ‘Hitler’s Nazi party were national socialists, and therefore technically left wing – but so left wing as to appear right wing in their extreme and racist views. The same can apply to the BNP.’ from the BBC dictionary…ala Orwell   From Teddy Bear in the comments….a BBC reply to someone who complained that they were referring to the BNP as right-wing when they should be called left-wing:   … Continue reading →

    Why is the BBC giving this herbert more publicity?…….   Immigration Street protesters gather outside Channel 4 offices A group of Southampton residents are protesting outside Channel 4’s headquarters against the pending TV series Immigration Street. Muslim broadcaster and community activist Mo Ansar, who lives in Southampton and took part in the protest, said the series producers, Love Productions, had been “reckless in their approach”. He said: “We’ve … Continue reading →

    Some thoughts on free speech, blasphemy and religion.   Curiously whilst the BBC reports this, Benedict Cumberbatch in call to pardon convicted gay men,  it hasn’t bothered to report the words of one of its favourite sons, Stephen Fry, when he denounced God……off with his head!  And they were pretty keen on his gay marriage after all….Why is Stephen Fry’s decision to get married a major news story … Continue reading →

      The BBC was having a field day yesterday with many of its favourite subjects in the spotlight…austerity, royalty and Thatcher, not to mention a bit of Imperial looting to cast a jaundiced eye over.  Not so much blatant bias that you could point a finger at and claim absolutely that it is bias but perhaps a more perncious, insidious type…a never ending flow of slights, innuendos, hints … Continue reading →

On-time and for your attention. Share the most egregious instances of BBC bias here please!

    The BBC has released a report into the future of News. Here is the BBC’s own version of what’s in the report: BBC ‘should improve local and World Service news’ BBC News should increase both its local and global coverage and improve its digital services if it is to remain relevant, the corporation has said. The BBC should “do more to provide local news that properly serves all … Continue reading →

  Thanks to Guest Who for pointing me in the direction of Newsnight where (Labour supporting…apparently) Kirsty Wark trashed Andy Burnham, Labour’s Shadow Health Minister.       A fascinating interview that tore Burnham to shreds and showed him up as a one hell of a bluffer unwilling to commit himself to putting a figure on how much of NHS work could be contracted out to the private sector….Burnham stated … Continue reading →

Time for a new one of these. Do detail the bias please!

    The Submarine Service used to be called the ‘Silent Service’ using stealth and skill to evade detection and sink the enemy. Seems that the BBC might well take on that nickname for its ‘silent’ support for Labour in its effort to sink the Tories….its silent support being its bias by omission as it avoids reporting or highlighting unpleasant news for Miliband. Miliband yesterday launched his bid for election … Continue reading →
