I know we’ve all been having problem getting access to the site in recent days but I think it’s all been fixed now so loading should be easier. My thanks to ASE and my apologies to all who have grown frustrated trying to get onto the site! I assure you that your frustration is as nothing compared to mine!
A Biased BBC reader writes; “I would like to draw your attention to the Dawood Prison scandal in Kabul. This week a US Congressional report was released detailing “Auschwitz-like” conditions in this US funded hospital in Afghanistan and a cover up by US military authorities – and one man in particular Lieutenant General William Caldwell In September of last year the Wall Street Journal reported: “There was evidence of horrifying … Continue reading
This is why I call Mardell the BBC’s US President editor instead of his official title, BBC North America editor. Mardell’s report about Romney’s trip to Israel leaves out the most important thing he said, and the second half of it is devoted to defending the President on the domestic economy issue. Mitt Romney: US will stand with Israel In the accompanying blurb, the BBC mentions that Romney said that … Continue reading
I did enjoy this interview with the UNISON representative on Today concerning the success the private sector has made of Hinchingbrooke NHS Trust. Well worth a laugh if you get a moment and a sublime accidental exposure of NHS priorities as seen through the prism of a Trade Unionist.
BBC Today has this touching tribute to vile anti-Semite and left wing fantasist Gore Vidal this morning. Dear Gore, they guy who felt that Bush was behind 9/11 and who declared “that Anti-Semitism got poor Polanski”.
I suspect this may not bother some readers as much as it bothers me but I was sickened by the way in which the BBC headlines the utterly loathsome PR spin from IRA commander Martin McGuinness re the Claudy atrocity. The fact is that the BBC has been to the fore in promoting a “peace process” which has enabled a man like McGuinness to reach the highest level of Government. … Continue reading
Another day on the BBC, another opportunity to put the boot into the Coalition using the most spurious “news”. Oh look, “Homelessness” is soaring. Guess what? Disposable Incomes are at a nine year low. You know what you have to do? Yes, vote Labour.
A classic example of the BBC editing out voices that do not parrot the desired narrative….in this report the BBC give the floor to a disabled charity, Scope, to make claims which are completely unsubstantiated by any objective standards, and whilst in a very early morning radio report we heard a dissenting voice, that voice has been noticeable by its absence from any other reports as have any other people … Continue reading
I’m sure that you have read David’s post below on the treatment afforded Mitt Romney by the BBC. I see that the BBC wanted to have the final word on the overseas visit by the GOP candidate by declaring “Romney wraps up overseas tour amid tensions with media..” Do have a read, I particularly liked the way they keep a sting to the last sentence. Let’s face it – the … Continue reading
I also found this aspect of Olympic coverage yesterday a bit perplexing and a B-BBC reader picks up on it.. “The BBC are ridiculously excited about the fifteen year old ethnic Lithuanian immigrant who won a gold. Not only did they go on about her for about three hours yesterday, but Derbyshire has been banging on about her today as well, and claimed people consider her ‘one of ours’. Really? … Continue reading
