Monday morning on the biased BBC and Osborne meets Naughtie. The BIG point that the BBC want to hear Conservatives repeating is that they will force “the rich” to pay even more in taxes than they already do. I suppose Osborne is triangulating a bit when he says that he WILL make them pay more insofar as this can be achieved by reducing the top rate of tax a bit … Continue reading
Here’s an interesting little video which shows just why climate sceptics have an uphill battle against the BBC. Richard Black is ‘informing’ fellow journalists of the ‘facts’ surrounding various controversies….’myths’ as he calls them. Note how he does not raise the very considerable questions that pour doubt upon the credibility and impartiality of the various inquiries into the CRU email hacking saga. Black raises the ‘research’ done by B.E.S.T … Continue reading
Flanders rounds off her portraits of influential economic thinkers with a Marxist mirage. Ostensibly about Marx it was really just a vehicle to propagate the usual BBC rhetoric about inequality, Thatcher and the rich getting richer. Flanders, like Marx, seems to have no interest in finding the truth but more in proclaiming it. She embodies the virtues that Marx displayed…the poet, journalist and moralist….producing a fascinating fusion of visual … Continue reading
Wonder what you make of this cheerily pro Palestinian puff piece from the unbiased BBC?
Wonder how the BBC views THIS then….? Just WHAT has been covered up by the BBC? Isn’t it time for a Judicial-led Independent Leveson style enquiry? BBC seemed keen on that when it came to the Murdoch empire so am sure they will will agree. Hang on, Patten has ruled it out….
Last week, as Labour prepared for their conference, the BBC shilled about how “united” they were. One week on, as the Conservatives prepare for their conference, the meme is “division”…oh, and “cuts”…. “Further cuts to welfare, including curbs on housing benefit, may be needed to help fight the deficit, David Cameron has warned. Speaking on first day of the Conservative Party conference, the prime minister said housing benefit may be … Continue reading
Just as they hid Savile’s abuses to keep a legend going and the whole edifice that was built up around him on the road the BBC does the same for Marx and the Left. Which is more sinister – The Swastika or the Hammer and Sickle? Some thoughts on the death of Professor Eric Hobsbawm Peter Hitchen’s asks a question that the BBC never does….. ‘Sometimes I see a … Continue reading
It seems that the BBC’s Jeremy Vine can’t accept the fact that Obama got his butt kicked fair and square by Romney in the first debate. In a desperate attempt to rationalise the beloved Obama’s defeat he is peddling a ridiculous conspiracy theory from lefty website Democratic Underground: WATCH. Eleven seconds in, did Mitt Romney use a magician’s sleight of hand to produce notes, which are banned? democraticunderground.com/1251119479 — Jeremy … Continue reading
There is some background work happening aimed at keeping the site stable so please bear with us. A team of people is working on this to ensure all the issues are fixed! In the meantime, a new OPEN thread…
Wonder if the BBC feels any embarrassment when it lectures us so sternly on wimmin’s rights? Caroline Thomson has once again lifted the veil on the BBC Bubble….a little ungrateful considering she walked off with a pension pot of £1.7 million, and as she was made redundant she no doubt received a hefty golden handshake. Why hasn’t a woman ever run the BBC? It is quite clear how much … Continue reading
