Saturday Live on the 16th had an interesting little report. (about 0945)…all the way from the delightful People’s Republic of North Korea. John McCarthy hears about the Arirang or Mass Games in North Korea’s capital Pongyang; a dazzling display by thousands of marching, dancing, skipping, gymnastics and… flip charts. He talks to visitors to the games photographer Jeremy Hunter, former diplomat James Hoare and tourist Tony Pletts. … Continue reading
Read this BBC report of the Moody’s downgrade of the UK’s credit rating and you would think it was all over, UK PLC is done for…or as the BBC put it …Osborne’s ‘Gamble failed’. Despite putting in the basic facts from the report the tone adopted by the BBC is downbeat and defeatist with an emphasis on an economy with ‘significant “challenges” ’ …though Moodys itself doesn‘t use the word … Continue reading
Whilst most political parties do sleaze, the Lib-Dems do it particularly well. The BBC has had little choice to run with Rennard after all this is just the latest instance in a line that weaves from Huhne to Laws, Brown to Oaten. Wonder what you make of the line the BBC is taking on this?
I’m sure by now everyone knows about the looming swinging budget cuts that will happen automatically if no new budget deal is reached between the Republicans and the President. This is known as the “sequester”, and is the result of them kicking the can down the road a while back.

The BBC has backed the Green lobby and ignores the corrupt politicians….when your fuel bill … Continue reading
Here we go with a new Open Thread before we even get to Monday morning! Do detail the bias.
I thought this was a really interesting insight on a current BBC story from a Biased BBC reader; “There is a report today on the BBC website about the government wanting all foreign doctors working in the NHS to be able to speak English. At present, EU-registered doctors are exempt from such a requirement, due to the Alice In Wonderland laws that currently prevail. The move has been precipitated due … Continue reading
BiasedBBC is recruiting…we’re looking for agents for our network who can successfully infiltrate and negotiate surreptitiously the labyrinthine corridors of the BBC and whistleblow, leak or steal, in BBC parlance, information that is in the Public Interest….if you are in a position to influence and guide BBC policy towards a more enlightened and impartial approach to reporting news that is an added bonus. To that end I … Continue reading
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
