The BBC have been forced to admit that their usual hugely damaging anti-British rhetoric is wrong. The BBC ever ready to do down our own troops whilst giving favourable coverage to terrorists has been proven wrong as it tried to rewrite hsitory as Christopher Booker reports in the Telegraph: ‘There are few more futile exercises in this world than trying to get the BBC to admit it has … Continue reading
Whilst Britain’s spy chiefs have opened up the files and become more open and transparent our purveyor of light entertainment and world news has battened down the hatches in a move worthy of Stalin’s KGB. But that is not the first example of extremely disturbing Institutional self interest on the part of the BBC. The BBC is never happier than when chasing down those … Continue reading
The BBC want to talk to the Taliban but they don’t want to talk to climate sceptics. If you’re a God fearing Taliban commander who has killed British soldiers you’re guaranteed a slot on the Today programme, if you’re someone who blasphemously denies Co2 kills polar bears you can go hang. Two things: Wind farms will create more carbon dioxide, say scientists Thousands of … Continue reading
As you turn up the heating you must remember…snow, icy artic winds and spring delayed….. this is only ‘weather’. The underlying trend is an ever increasing heating of the Globe bringing with it apocalyptic extremes of climate variously burning and drowning the world in a Biblical scourge of the guilty gassers. The BBC’s latest tale of grim retribution by Mother Nature has the revelation that you’d better dig … Continue reading
Comic Relief came early to R4 this week with the release of a Monty Pythonesque sketch in the form of an interview by Evan Davis with Danny Alexander. Alexander provided the straightman to Evan’s very own comedy double act….What was the ‘gag’? Evan interviewing Evan…Alexander didn’t have to say much just providing a sounding board for Evan’s commiedy genius. Contrast that with Humphry’s interview with Balls where it was the … Continue reading
Can’t say I am in the least surprised to read that the UK has lost its triple AAA credit rating. After all, when the Coalition follows Keynesian follies and refuses to cut the size of the State then it is highly likely growth will be sluggish, and as former Conservative Deputy PM Michael Heseltine stated the other evening, no government will cut spending on Welfare and the NHS since that … Continue reading
Well, that’s what Jeremy Paxman thinks; “It was ‘common gossip’ at the BBC that Jimmy Savile liked young girls before he was outed as a paedophile, it emerged today as the Corporation released 3,000 pages of redacted evidence into their handling of the sex abuse scandal. Newsnight host Jeremy Paxman made the claim as the evidence gathered during an inquiry into the show’s decision to drop its Jimmy Savile sex abuse … Continue reading
I had the great misfortune to catch most of BBC Question Time last evening, recorded at St Paul’s. We had the usual biased panel; Saint Vince Cable (left and much loved by the BBC) Michael Heseltine (He stabbed Thatcher in the back and is fervently pro EU) Rev Giles Fraser (Raving left) Diana “Divide and Rule” Abbott (Left) and by way of “balance”, the maverick Peter Hitchens. The part of … Continue reading
Here is an Open Thread to see us all off into the wide blue yonder of the weekend. Detail the bias!
The BBC has released transcripts of the Pollard inquiry on Savile, but hasn’t made it easy for those trying to find out the details. (above image via Lucy Manning) BBC promotes its Linked Data initiative on its Internet blog. 2 days later: releases transcripts from Pollard inquiry in non-searchable PDFs — Charles Arthur (@charlesarthur) February 22, 2013 Basically, BBC has put biggest obstacles it can in way of journalists wanting … Continue reading
