The Sunday Times reports: ‘Christians Offer Safe Houses To Muslim Converts’ Now why the hell would they need to do that in secular, democratic Britain where Muslims are tolerant and live by the guiding light of the Religion of Peace? Apparently it is necessary to offer such sanctuary as Muslim converts to Christianity face ostracism and violent reprisals. ‘The penalty for them is at best to … Continue reading
Here is another guest submission, this time from Biased BBC contributor Guess Who? It’s on the issue of the Parliamentary Discussion into the future of the BBC. It is lengthy, detailed and astute analysis and I commend it you. “The remit is wide and covers issues like bias, accountability, size, licence fee etc.’ Well, in theory all of the above. But mostly so far the last, best I can see. … Continue reading
DC Alden, author of the excellent The Horse of the Gates, and a reader of this august journal (!) shares the following with us; “I’m sure you’re probably aware by now but there was a newspaper review on BBC News this morning with a female Muslim blogger. She began with a piece about Christians offering sanctuary to Muslims wishing to leave Islam’s embrace. I didn’t catch the whole package but … Continue reading
Gotta laugh at the do-gooding worriers of the BBC. Honouring ‘International Women’s Day’ we get this from the BBC: Dolly + Beyonce + Miley = Girl Power! First broadcast: Friday 07 March 2014 Fearne creates a Girl Power Playlist in honour of International Women’s Day, including tracks from the likes of Beyonce, Miley, Adele and even some Dolly Parton!!! And there was this: Girl Power: … Continue reading
This item was posted by my colleague Mike Cunningham over on A Tangled Web and I think it warrants your consideration. “Listening on the Beeb’s Today Programme to what must be considered a true favourite of the BBC’s way of group-think. The woman being interviewed had a son who had been kidnapped by the Nigerian Boko Haram bunch of criminal terrorists, and he had been killed during a rescue attempt. The woman … Continue reading
Here you go, an really early Open Thread for your use!!! Try to restrict your European election analysis to THAT thread and let’s keep this for other issues. I am out of the UK on business for a few days, back mid week!
Right. It’s time for a new thread to discuss BBC coverage of the EUROPEAN elections results as they roll in! I see the Front National have topped the poll in France…
Biased BBC Graeme Thompson aka Hippiepooter offers us this! Clearly, £ Stirling as “Britain’s currency doesn’t make the BBC happy. http://www.bbc.com/capital/story/20140522-are-money-and-happiness-linked The death of the Queen Mother couldn’t induce BBC presenters to wear black ties, but one suspects tomorrow’s euro-election results may well do so!”
Just a few confirmations of the usual casual bias or lazy thinking from within the Bubble. Nicky Campbell on Friday declared that it was quite unfair of the Press to publish those photos of Miliband munching on a not very Kosher bacon sarny: However…Miliband was on the stump looking for that photo opportunity to present himself as a man-of-the-people….he made a mess of it and showed bad … Continue reading
Is it just me or is the new iPlayer a complete shambolic mess? The old one wasn’t perfect by anymeans, clunky but usable, but the new one is abysmal, confusing and hard to navigate and find anything…browsing wasn’t a delight before, now it’s just a lucky dip or a grind through the hidden listings…almost as if they didn’t want you to find things to watch.
