Hugely disappointed…been watching the BBC’s ‘Australia With Simon Reeves’ and it had been something different from the normal offerings we get which follow the usual beaten path showing us all the same old touristy sights and sounds. Reeves put in some effort and dug up some of the more interesting corners of Australia….but then the BBC flipped the switch and we got a BBC ‘Stepford wife’…obedient and mindless, repeating the … Continue reading
The New Cultural Forum’s review of the BBC’s coverage of immigration by Edest has been released: Groupthink: Can we trust the BBC on immigration?
The last post looked at ‘Prosperity Gospel’ and what the BBC thought about its message…..the Guardian reviewed the programme and within that review one astonishing statement stood out a mile and revealed a lot about a certain mindset: ‘The whole of the Hebrew Bible, or Old Testament, can be read as a record of people coming to terms with failure. In part this was done by the invention of a … Continue reading
The BBC once again broadcasts a programme that tears into a Christian Church as Dotun Adebayo presents a programme about the ‘Prosperity Gospel’ Church. An interesting programme about a Church that I had never heard of and probably one meriting a look at its activities….but as I said…once again the BBC goes for the Christians. The programme tells us ….. ‘The Bible says you cannot serve both … Continue reading
Freedom of thought, freedom of speech and freedom from England…apparently a shortage of all in Bonnie Scotland. Over 700 years ago… …tyranny and terror were the tools being used by England to rule Scotland. Occupied and oppressed, the Scottish nation sought a hero to challenge the cruelty of King Edward I. Someone to take the campaign for freedom into battle, and on to victory. When the two … Continue reading
Another week….sunshine and endless BBC bias to uncover…what more could you want? …Just heard on radio young people getting involved in Cameron’s ‘Big Society’ by volunteering…stick in the BBC’s throat?…it was always the ‘Big Joke’.
The BBC, together with the Telegraph entrapped MP Patrick Mercer, and managed to get him to sign up to what he thought was an agreement with some lobbyists…he would get some money for asking some questions for them in Parliament. A lot of effort obviously went into the scheme and they got the result they wanted….an MP apparently willing to compromise his position for money. The BBC didn’t seem so … Continue reading
Andrew Gilligan in the Telegraph takes a look at the figures that the BBC so readily gave so much airtime to from a project called ’Tell Mama’ that suggested we were looking at a ‘“a wave of attacks, harassment, and hate-filled speech against Muslims … an unprecedented number of incidents”, including “a rise in street harassment of Muslims – unprovoked, opportunistic attacks from strangers as Muslims go about their … Continue reading
A book by Vali Nasr, ‘The Dispensable Nation: American Foreign Policy In Retreat’ has stirred things up in US political circles. You might have thought this would be right up Mark Mardell’s alley…not fast moving hard news but something that requires a bit of time, insight and analysis to digest and ponder over. It’s a fascinating and controversial insight into the Obama ‘foreign policy’ by an insider…this is how an … Continue reading
Riots in Turkey about ‘government policy’. What could that mean? Are they about austerity, or immigrants being discriminated against, or police brutality? No…even the BBC has to admit: ‘Creeping Islamisation’ Correspondents say the issue has helped highlight unhappiness among young people towards the government and ruling Justice and Development (AK) Party over what they see as creeping Islamisation. Are these protestors ‘islamophobic’? Maybe they’re ‘perverting atheism’…they’re not real … Continue reading
