The BBC rushed to report the other day about the newly-released video game from the NRA, which encourages children to learn about target shooting. National Rifle Association launches shooting game for mobiles One can tell the perspective of the Beeboid who wrote this up right away from the opening lines. They tell you that the game has been approved for children as young as four right up front, as opposed … Continue reading
Withdrawn this post as Albaman rightly points out a BBC report I missed.
Anyone read this ecowacko drivel from Roger Harradin? Who would have thought that John Gummer would end lionised by the BBC? All he had to do was embrace his inner Greenie. If you read this lengthy report is takes the usual pro- Environmentalist line that Harradin predictably spouts.
First the headline; A Belfast interface worker has called on the authorities to keep protesters away from interface flashpoints. Gosh..let’s read a little more.. Twenty-nine police officers were injured at the weekend in rioting at east Belfast’s Short Strand interface. It followed a loyalist protest over the decision to restrict the flying of the union flag at Belfast City Hall. Joe O’Donnell, director of the Belfast Interface Project, said keeping rival … Continue reading
I’ve noticed the BBC giving Baroness Grey Thompson a soapbox to attack Coalition moves to reform Disability benefit. She was on Today again this morning and allowed a free run. It seems that having a disability means never having to be challenged on your views on Welfare.

Jon Donnison ?@JonDonnison Haaretz: #Hamas defeated #IDF in social media virtual warfare during #Gaza conflict, Israeli study shows http://htz.li/TylOQR The BBC are praised for training Palestinian journalists…from what I saw it would seem the Palestinians had little to learn from the BBC in terms of presenting their case…whereas the BBC journalists had rings run around them and were gulled into presenting Palestinian propaganda as news….though of … Continue reading
But you’d be wrong. Could it be that the first report below about the high cost of wind farms reveals Labour to have made an enormous, expensive error…maybe an ‘omnishambles’…and that the green agenda is going to cost everyone an absolute fortune with no guarantee that we will see any elecricity at the end of it all…..two of the BBC’s pet projects…the Labour Party and the Green agenda…..both … Continue reading
You may often come to the conclusion that BBC presenters are ignorant of the subjects on which they are interviewing and have undue reliance on, or respect for, the interviewee ‘expert’ and subsequently fail to challenge him or her on their statements…either out of lack of subject knowledge, too much deference or all too often a set of beliefs which are in line with those being stated … Continue reading
