Did you see that the BBC has taken to censoring Fawlty Towers?

Yes, of course we all know that the BBC is unrelentingly hostile to anyone even vaguely right of liberal in the normal run of things BUT when the likes of William Hague and those wise old (Arabist) coves at the F.O. churn out press releases supportive of the urgent need for a Palestinian State, then all of a sudden, the BBC is almost kind to them! Almost like the BBC has an … Continue reading →

Wonder what you make of this? The Prime Minister said the attack that killed six Britons should be “condemned utterly” after a Conservative MP expressed “surprise and disappointment” at the broadcaster’s reporting. The BBC, which has strict guidelines for reporters on the terms they should adopt, described the attackers as “militants” 12 times in one report on its website. However, in the same report, the only use of the term “terrorists” occurred … Continue reading →

FT journalist Janan Ganesh is not impressed with the fawning media coverage of Obama. The BBC’s Dominic Laurie agrees and concedes that the BBC does not escape blame. @jananganesh agreed — Dominic Laurie (@dominic_laurie) January 21, 2013 Yes, BBC included. @dominic_laurie @jananganesh — DB (@4d2b) January 22, 2013 @4d2bdon’t deny that — Dominic Laurie (@dominic_laurie) January 22, 2013

So Prince Harry reveals that he may have killed Taliban when on active service in Afghanistan. Good. Well maybe not. This item from the BBC seems fairly neutral but the idea that our soldiers actually KILL Jihadists never sits easy with the preaceniks and dhimmis at the BBC and so I invite you to comment on any additional BBC coverage you may have heard as regards Harry’s interview..

Interesting profile on the lady in the Question Time audience last week who actually spoke up and contradicted the nonsense spouted by lefty Mary Beard that migrants were not overwhelming the market town of Boston. Do have a read.

Very one sided article here from the BBC  “proving” that the Smoking ban has reduced childhood asthma admissions. This smacks of those with vested interests taking selective data to validate their own case and it would have been nice to see the BBC rather more inquiring about the “research”.

Morning all! Here we go with an early Open Thread to start the week! The floor is yours ..DETAIL the bias,

    In February 1963 Ridley Scott was named in the title credits as “Designer” for a BBC television Tonight programme about the severe winter of 1963. He went on to famously direct science fiction ‘horror’ films Alien and Blade Runner and recently Prometheus. The BBC likewise, it might be said, has taken a similar path, producing climate ‘horror’ films based more on science fiction than fact. The BBC don’t … Continue reading →

Clearly the BBC has fallen out with the ‘ever ready with an anti Iraq War quote’ Craig Murray whom they used to wheel in to the studios to give a reasoned and fair portrayal of the war….or not. Here is his views on the BBC’s ‘impartial’ coverage of the recent events in Israel and Gaza (my censorship of Craig’s Anglo Saxon vocabulary)….. BBC Vomit by craig on November 21, 2012 … Continue reading →
