I wrote this up while watching Nick Robinson’s “The Truth About Immigration”. After it was over, I rearranged a few things, but except for the last couple of paragraphs it was nearly all written as I watched. However, after having digested it for a minute, I think I can sum the whole thing up much more briefly. Nick Robinson: How is it that a subject that was once taboo is … Continue reading
Last November, the BBC website created the “Echo Chambers” feature, and assigned one of their experienced editors and journalists, Anthony Zurcher to curate it. The mission statement as he originally stated it is this: Welcome to Echo Chambers, a new blog about opinion and commentary in the United States and around the world. The purpose of this blog is to discover and present quality opinion journalism wherever it may be … Continue reading
Aw, bless ’em. The BBC must have been so upset by the revelations from former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates indicating that Obama did not have faith in the merit of the administration’s strategy, despite his decision to order a “surge” in troops to the region, that it is buried in the main news portal today! See if you can find it; Hint, it’s below a Schumacher story….
I see the BBC is giving maximum publicity to the ..ahem…breakthrough story that a footballer that many people will have never even heard of and who is essentially retired from football, has confirmed he is gay. I‘m not sure what this has to do with football but the BBC never misses a chance to advance the gay lobby agenda.
Well, the jury has decided that London gangster Mark Duggan was lawfully killed. BBC coverage to date seems massively on the side of Duggan’s “Fu*k the Police” supporters. Thoughts?
Joan Bakewell tells us politicians won’t win against the comics…. Something the BBC knows and employs to great effect on its comedy programmes: It is an unwise man who picks a quarrel with comics. They may not be right; indeed, you may be. But they have the jokes. And that means laughter and the warm regard of the public. However… Perhaps politics is now seen by the … Continue reading
The census clearly shows that the decade preceding 2011 saw the greatest rise in the population in England and Wales in any 10-year period since census taking began growing by 3.7 million or 7.1 per cent. Some 55 per cent of this growth is due to immigration, immigration that primarily occurred under New Labour’s watch. Interesting that the BBC has filled the airwaves all day with talk of immigration….based … Continue reading
Here you go, this is a POLAR VORTEX approved Open Thread! Over to you folks, detail the stone cold bias!
The BBC have covered the story of the little Afghan girl who was detained wearing a suicide vest in southern Afghanistan, I happened to catch BBC Today early this morning, before 7am. John Humphrys introduced the item by asking the BBC correspondent IF this story could really be true. It’s as if he couldn’t believe how wicked these dark age savages really are and preferred to imply this was black propaganda deployed … Continue reading
Biased BBC contributor Daniel Pycock writes “If you thought the BBC were pushing the “too far, too fast” line last time, just wait for more of their output regarding George Osborne’s planned cuts between 2014-16. Take a look at this most recent article: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-25617844 I count thirty four sentences in total, of which seven contain what Osborne actually said. There are another seven ‘neutral’ sentences dedicated to paraphrasing the government’s … Continue reading
