Twitter was outraged this morning as it woke up to the Daily Mail frontpage. The BBC, and it seems the tedious Owen Jones, are of a similar mind laying into the Mail today as it linked Philpott’s scrounging to the death of his children. A picture in the Telegraph via Guido with ‘idiot’ Jones…. @OwenJones84 The utter shameless, grotesque, vile mentality of a “newspaper” that uses the killing of … Continue reading
Unfortunately, all singing, all dancing he might be but all seeing he ain’t. Tony Hall the new DG has declared that the BBC is not left of centre. As the Daily Mail asks: How can the public hope for him to address this acute problem if he won’t even acknowledge that it exists?
No clearer example than this to illustrate why the Today programme, and the BBC as a whole, fail so often to bring us the truth: I’m a ducker and a diver: Truth about BBC ‘welfare victim’ who dared Iain Duncan Smith to live on £53 a week ‘I put a comment on saying David Cameron can stick his Big Society where the sun doesn’t shine, or words to … Continue reading
Stephen Nolan, standing in for Victoria Derbyshire interviewed Edwina Currie…and it was a fair interview with Currie given a chance to make her points and Nolan didn’t get upset, Humphrys’ style, when challenged about his use of the ‘welfare Lobby’ type phrases…or ‘slogans’ as Currie put it. Thought it was a far better interview and more informative than the adversarial interrogation we got from Humphrys with Ian … Continue reading
Who knows best, me or the media? I have discovered in England that sometimes the media are more crazy in some ways than the Italian media. Does any more need to be said? Fascism wasn’t such a problem for the BBC when he was Swindon manager in 2012. Will Dan Hodges and the Durham Miner’s Union be demanding a boycott of the BBC now? Had to laugh … Continue reading
Poor IDS, the BBC hate him almost as much as they suddenly dislike Paolo Di Canio! Detail the bias here!!!
Today sees the Coalition introducing Welfare reforms. I think the BBC coverage is…ahem..interesting and wondered what you make of their impartial world class coverage?
The BBC thinks David Miliband quitting the Board of Sunderland football club is the third most important story in the world. ‘Ex-foreign secretary David Miliband has resigned from the board of Sunderland football club over new head coach Paolo Di Canio’s “past political statements”.’ Strange that they do not take a more nuanced look at this…Miliband who is quite happy to work with IRA … Continue reading
Or not…look away quick….the torture was by Palestinians on Palestinians. ‘In the Nineties, we used to torture them badly. We beat them hard and we made them like a car that doesn’t function. But we were defending our home, the region and the rest of the world. I am happy it was justified.’ Hooded, hanged and left in agony for hours on end: Palestinian security chief tells how he has … Continue reading
Rowan Williams, ex Archbishop, recently walked along his local high street. As he went he cast lavish quantities of £10 notes down upon the ground amongst the good people of the city. He was astonished to see them throng about him in a frenzy picking up his largesse as fast as they could. The good Rowan concluded that this was an obvious sign that the people … Continue reading
