Astonishing that Paxman is allowed to get away with his political comments, especially as he is one of the BBC’s most senior political interviewers….here he is not talking about a past election but the next one and is expressing what are self-evidently highly political views… Paxman says that we “ignore the democratic process at our peril” and believes people should vote. However he is also damning about the … Continue reading →

  The BBC (& others) have been enthusiastically hyping the storm in the Phillipines as the strongest in history…then moderated it to ‘one of the most powerful‘….but still giving wind speeds  incorrectly: The storm made landfall shortly before dawn on Friday, bringing gusts that reached 379km/h (235 mph), according to the US Navy’s Joint Typhoon Warning Center, with waves as high as 15m (45ft), bringing up to 400mm (15.75 inches) … Continue reading →

To my mind, the BBC have taken a perverse delight in the conviction of a UK Marine for killing a Taliban terrorist. Their airwaves have been full of the pious passing judgement on the actions of this soldier and yet, as we draw closer to Remembrance Sunday, part of me remembers that war IS hell, it IS savage and brutal, and many many British soldiers showed no mercy to the … Continue reading →

Here you go, a new thread to take us across the weekend. Start to detail the bias HERE.

  From the Daily Mail:   The BBC is too big and too left wing and should lose some of its licence fee, the Corporation’s former head of TV news has warned. Roger Mosey claimed the BBC had wrongly kept critics of Brussels, benefits and immigration off the airwaves and veered to the left on many issues. He said it would ‘enrich the nation’ if rival commercial broadcasters had access … Continue reading →

        The BBC asks: Kristallnacht 75 years on: How strong is anti-Semitism in Germany?   And reports: “The significantly strongest agreement with anti-Semitic prejudices is found in Poland and Hungary. In Portugal, followed closely by Germany, anti-Semitism is significantly more prominent than in the other western European countries. In Italy and France, anti-Semitic attitudes as a whole are less widespread than the European average, while the extent … Continue reading →

      The BBC’s Roger Harrabin sounded pretty desperate yesterday morning on the radio as he yet again pushed a very one sided version of climate change…helpfully he has written it all down as he helps in the fight to keep the Green show on the road: Wavering on UK climate policy ‘not justified’ Britain is playing its part in a worldwide bid to reduce emissions and should not … Continue reading →

A Biased BBC reader notes… “Reporting on the grilling of the three intelligence chiefs before a Parliamentary Committee these were the newsworthy headlines reported under that heading immediately after, on three web sites:” BBC’s top headline:  Web inventor criticises spy agencies Sky News headline: Leaks by the US whistleblower Edward Snowden have played into the hands of terrorists, say Britain’s spy chiefs. ITV’s top headline Spy chiefs believe Snowden leaks … Continue reading →

You have to hand it to the BBC, they are determined to push the global warming meme even when it is..erm, cooling! The levels of gases in the atmosphere that drive global warming increased to a record high in 2012. According to the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), atmospheric CO2 grew more rapidly last year than its average rise over the past decade. Concentrations of methane and nitrous oxide also broke previous records … Continue reading →

Ah, will the BBC ever get over the death of ol’ Yasser – that Jew hating terrorist loving piece of Palestinian slime?  …sorry, I meant that much loved and sadly missed Leader of the most oppressed people ever. I mean when BBC reporter Barbara Plett openly wept at his funeral, those were our tears she expressed, right? Anyhoo….the issue of Arafat’s death has been a tad tricky for the BBC. … Continue reading →
