David has already mentioned Today’s guest editor, P.J Harvey….an undoubtedly highly political one at that, but the final flourish from her, her choice of her (non religious) ‘Thought for the day‘ was shot through with irony when you consider the BBC’s own control of information, its attempts to close down debate…want to make a critical comment about climate change…you’re a ‘denier’, want to critique Islam…you’re an Islamophobe or … Continue reading →

        As David notes there is great amusement at the climate scientists and Guardian/BBC journos etc getting stuck in the Antarctic ice.   There has been no mention of climate change at all for some reason in any of the BBC news bulletins I have heard…until today when the intrepid World at One broached the subject inviting in a renowned climate scientist (13:08)…because as you know they … Continue reading →

The BBC’s coverage of the Antarctic rescue seems to less than forthright as you will see if you hop over to Watts Up.  Here’s a visual starter for ten…

Biased BBC contributor Daniel Pycock tackles one of the BBC’s most egregious instances of serial bias. ‘If there is one line of BBC journalism that readers should be familiar with; it is “about 500,000 jews live in more than 100 settlements built since Israel’s 1967 occupation of the West Bank and (of) East Jerusalem. The settlements are considered illegal under international law, though Israel disputes this”. The line (in bold) … Continue reading →

I wonder how many of you had the misfortune to listen to the TODAY programme on the BBC this morning? It had PJ Harvey as its guest editor and we are treated to reams of anti-arms trade, pro UN waffle, with Joan Baez even getting a song played in the peak 8-8.30am slot. It was the MOST unlistenable  edition I have heard in ages but I am sure BBC comrades … Continue reading →

This New Year should provide the comrades at the BBC with much scope for their bias. We will have the Scottish referendum on the 18th September. Where will the BBC stand on this defining moment for the UK? We have the European elections on the 22nd May. UKIP are forecast to perform strongly but how will the BBC spin a likely win for Farage and his gang? With the UK … Continue reading →

Welcome to the New Year and here is the very first NEW OPEN THREAD for you all to complete!

    Poor but happy, that’s the BBC’s ideal world. Low carbon footprints, sustainable consumption and sing songs and hugs for Christmas.  BBC bliss.   The BBC has long been banging away  that ‘consumerism’ is the root of all evil…despite also banging the drum that tells us the Poor must have more to be happy….just where do all those jobs, and the wealth,  that gives the Poor more come from?  … Continue reading →

    The BBC’s Phil Mackie brings us some blatant propaganda, lies if you prefer, all the way from Bucharest in Romania. (08:12) He manages to combine two of the BBC’s favourite Bête Noires, immigration control and one of Murdoch’s papers, The Sun, in a ‘report’ that was more a ‘Dan Brown-like’ invention of the truth than reality. His report is from one angle only as his Tweets demonstrate:   … Continue reading →

Well folks, 2013 is drawing to a close and I wanted to take a moment and thank you all for your continued patronage of this site.

Wishing you and your loved ones all the very best for 2014 and see you in the New Year… and a BIG thank you to all my fellow writers – Alan in … Continue reading →
