The BBC’s Jim Muir in Lebanon provided us with what I thought was an uncomfortably pro-Hezbollah report this morning on the Today programme (8:32)…perhaps he had some of those Hezbollah ‘minders’ ‘editing’ his report. Justin Webb told us that the leader of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, gave a speech which ‘horrified’ Syria watchers. Muir didn’t seem too concerned…in fact he seemed quite upbeat about it. Firstly he told us that … Continue reading
The BBC raised the issue that it may be converts to Islam who are the real problem when it comes to extreme Muslims, clearly not the ‘born Muslims’, and therefore nothing inherent in the religion of Islam as such…radicalism is merely the ‘zeal’ of the new convert. Yes, you don’t see many ‘born Muslim’ zealots do you? Evan Davis asks which comes first for converts… …are they deranged before they are … Continue reading
I actually appeared on the Nicky Campbell hosted “The Big Questions” a few months ago and have to say I found the host to be pleasant and fair minded in his dealing with me. However, I have received a stream of complaints from Biased BBC readers and others concerning yesterday’s edition of the programme. Did you see it? I watched it myself and was horrified at the lack of balance … Continue reading
Guest post by Graeme Thompson (who comments as ‘hippiepooter’) How do we combat Jihad? We recognise it for the Act of Treason that it is. We recognise that the global counter-terrorist war we have (half) been engaged in is a war against the Jihad being waged against us. Whether Jihad is prosecuted against us by violence or by the black propaganda of internal enemy organisations like Cageprisoners, we deal with … Continue reading
Listen up, folks, a few words from the management! Biased-BBC was created as a forum to highlight and discuss BBC bias. That is the sole focus. Anyone seeking to post any thought in their head can start their own blog. You have a right to your opinion, but you have no right to force association with it on others, nor do you have a right to call for violence on … Continue reading
That’s a rather neat summing up of the BBC attitude according to Rod Liddle in the Sunday Times. Something backed up, at least the part about women, by the former Today programme editor Jenny Abramsky who says that the BBC has a ‘huge responsibility’ to employ more women. Liddle says: ‘This is an open letter to a man called James. This particular James is white, middle-aged and public school and … Continue reading
Another open thread to kick the week off…the sun is shining, the day is beautiful and the future’s bright….but there is absolutely no connection to Islam I should make clear.
The Director of the IRS’s tax-exempt enforcement division, Lois Lerner, has been placed on “administrative leave” after her publicly derided appearance in front of Congress the other day. Reality forces the BBC to report on a story they were quietly avoiding until the story got too big to ignore. Lois Lerner on administrative leave in US tax scandal There are some glaring omissions here, as well as the usual partisan … Continue reading
‘Right Thinking Muslims’ What are they? Who are they? What do they think? I don’t know, but Nicky Campbell and all those BBC presenters who use the phrase obviously do…perhaps it is similar to the ‘Right Thinking Tory’ who has dumped all his principles in favour of a ‘Good Press’ from the BBC. I seem to know what a ‘Right Thinking Muslim’ isn’t….he isn’t someone who adheres to the … Continue reading
The weekend beckons and so time for a brand new fresh and shiny OPEN thread! And guess what, this hasn’t cost £98m…..
