Two reports about Christianity that hit the BBC cutting room floor: Leading Anglican bishop: British Churches have ‘capitulated to secularism’ and politically correct lessons that whitewash Islam I can’t imagine why that was kicked into the long grass by the BBC….a BBC all too keen usually to report the word of the Godly …as long as they are slagging off Bankers and Tories. Yesterday we had a tsunami of … Continue reading
This via Guido: We know that the BBC lost £100 million on its failed digital media project. But it’s worse than that. William Foxton in the Telegraph says: We may never know the true cost of the BBC’s latest disaster – but it’ll be a lot more than £100 million ‘I heard that, over the five years of its life, factoring in staff costs, consulting fees and the money … Continue reading
I mentioned this tagged onto the end of the ‘Afghanamo’ post but ‘Emerson v’ in the comments says that when he posted a comment on the BBC site asking who was paying for the legal assistance to some Afghan detainees the comment was deleted so I thought I would highlight it. Defence Secretary Phillip Hammond said in an interview on the Today programme this morning that Britain was funding the legal … Continue reading
The BBC are going into overdrive on the story of some Afghan detainees, held for their own safety and that of British troops, beyond what is claimed to be the legal time limit. Excited claims of a British Guantanamo are being bandied about….the detainee’s lawyers making sure they hype that line to generate a bit of ‘shock’….the BBC were happy to play along at first…but all mentions of Guantanamo seemed … Continue reading
Something about bears and woods… “The BBC gives too much weight to pro-immigration voices and ‘almost totally ignores’ the negative social impact of multiculturalism, a new study has claimed. The corporation suffers from left wing ‘groupthink’ that prevents its journalists from challenging institutional bias and results in pro-immigration ‘propaganda’, according to the research published yesterday. It was also accused of ‘downplaying’ violence by Islamists while being happy to criticise Christianity … Continue reading
Middle of the week and time for a new one of these! Enjoy it and detail the bias.
“Nothing of importance will not offend somebody, somewhere.” Is the BBC biased against the EDL? I think it is…though arguably justifiably. The EDL does get a lot of airtime and coverage…but there is definitely not a neutral stance from the BBC when it talks about them or to them, there is always an undercurrent to every BBC report on them…the default approach is always that the EDL … Continue reading
The Daily Mail reports that the ‘New Cultural Forum’ has brought out a report on BBC bias authored by Ed West ….no link to it yet unfortunately: The BBC gives too much weight to pro-immigration voices and ‘almost totally ignores’ the negative social impact of multiculturalism, a new study has claimed. The corporation suffers from left wing ‘groupthink’ that prevents its journalists from challenging institutional bias and results in pro-immigration ‘propaganda’, … Continue reading
In February BBC Brazil’s US-based GOP/Tea Party-hating columnist Lucas Mendes wrote an article attacking Texan conservative politicians, the latest in a long line of partisan hit pieces from this lefty journalist (representing the supposedly impartial BBC). His dislike of conservative America is so all-consuming that he based much of this recent column on fake facts from a satirical article in the New Yorker which he believed was genuine. He has … Continue reading
David Dimbleby admits to being a member of the IRA and that he was very proud to have worn the ‘uniform’…though he insists he didn’t bomb or kneecap anyone….insisting he had nothing to be ashamed of……he never did the disgusting, disgraceful things that Gerry Adams did. Well no, that’s obviously all untrue…and the BBC would never call Adams disgraceful and disgusting…despite him having been a member of … Continue reading
