BBC Sunday Morning Live was particularly appalling this morning. The lead debate asked whether whether Muslims were being demonised. We had Mehdi Hasan asking the question and talking over everybody else. We had Anne Atkinson who agreed Muslims were being demonised and Douglas Murray who opined that they weren’t. We had Fiyaz Mughal, from Tell Mama, lined up to back the meme but when the poll result came in, once again … Continue reading →

    The BBC reports that Biased BBC has another ally in the war against misinformation and media manipulation: So many faked images are circulating in Egypt that Facebook sites have been set up with the goal of separating fact from fiction, writes BBC Monitoring’s Dina Aboughazala. The sheer volume of disinformation has led to the creation of verification pages on Facebook, such as Da Begad? – or Is This … Continue reading →

  From the BBC: World’s media lament decline in freedom   ….but not a single mention of Leveson and the huge opposition to his conclusions and the attempts to railroad the Press into being ‘regulated’ by those honest custodians of our freedom…the politicians….and the BBC and its cohort of drug and booze addled, sexually liberated celebrities who wish to remain anonymous.

    This is a look at what the papers say…from the BBC’s ‘Editor’s choice’: The Independent also claims to have gained access to confidential information. It says it has seen a secret list – passed to a parliamentary committee – on the activities of big corporations like banks and pharmaceutical firms. The paper alleges that companies from two of the country’s biggest industries have hired private investigators to unlawfully … Continue reading →

    What is the world coming to?  My prejudices have been well and truly challenged and appropriately adjusted this weekend. Forced to listen to the BBC’s ‘News Quiz’ in a diversity training package I came to ‘see’ the other side, to appreciate the world from a different perspective other than my right wing narrow minded and bigoted little Englander viewpoint.   Well, actually that’s a load of bull….but what did … Continue reading →

  I see that our resident contrarians spent the best part of a day trying to persuade readers that the BBC is entirely innocent of any anti-Israeli spin in its preferred choice of questions for a Gallup poll. I think a more informed, impartial and rational look at the information tells the true story. 　 The excellent BBC Watch has come to the same conclusion that Biased BBC did when it … Continue reading →

Honestly, you would need a heart of stone not to laugh at the overt bias this item exudes at 8.10am (prime time listening)  on the Today programme exudes! It is the latest attempt by the BBC to thrown as much gloom and doom over any nascent economic recovery as is possible! In an attempt to point out that “the squeezed middle” is not becoming “the eased middle”, the BBC pick two … Continue reading →

I was reading on the BBC “that former BBC broadcaster Stuart Hall’s 15-month sentence for a series of indecent assaults has been doubled by the Court of Appeal.” Oh, how MODEST of the BBC. But please, they must have forgotten JUST how much they praised Hall..

Arriving a little late but still on time for the weekend! Off you go….

  The Today programme (07:45) updated us on the progress of the BBC’s latest wheeze: The Today programme is asking listeners to come up with questions to put to tens of thousands of people in more than 60 countries around the world. The programme will submit two questions suggested by listeners to feature in the Gallup International poll. A panel including the BBC’s Head of Political Research David Cowling and … Continue reading →
