Overdue but finally here!

Why Pakistan? Some of you have questioned what Pakistan had to do with a post about Israel. The fact you have to ask that answers your own question in a way….the BBC is nowhere near as concerned with the ‘illegal creation’ of Pakistan as it is with Israel. Just why is the BBC so concerned about Palestinians but so relatively unconcerned about Indians in Kashmir or Bangladeshi history? Muslims and … Continue reading →

  Always providing a balanced approach to BBC bias I offer you this: As bombs rain down on the people of Gaza the BBC has once again transformed itself into a platform for Israeli government spokespeople and apologists   And an example of their reasoning: ‘Discussing Operation Cast Lead, another recent report on the BBC website tells us that in 2008 ‘hundreds of Palestinians were killed on the first day … Continue reading →

    Via Bishop Hill The New Statesman reminds us of the BBC’s values: ‘The intrinsic value of the BBC embodies an unfashionable, anti-market ethos.’ ….whilst paying themselves hefty salaries of course….and all at the same time as denouncing Capitalism, Consumerism and ‘The Market’.

    Funny old world you might think as the Jews, having suffered at the hands of the Nazis, turn into Nazis themselves and aim to wipe out the Palestinians.

On this morning’s Today programme BBC Washington correspondent Paul Adams admitted that Benghazi was a “huge issue” in the US election. Funny that, because at the time the BBC clearly thought it was a non-story, best ignored. During the final weeks of the election campaign, as more and more evidence emerged showing contradictions in official claims over what really happened and Republican politicians demanded to know the truth, the staff … Continue reading →

Here is a new thread for you to detail the bias as you see it!
