A Biased BBC reader was listening to the PM yesterday and has this to say.. “Towards the end of the PM programme we were promised they were going to talk about the census figures, which they admitted showed the biggest ever population increase (although still obviously a gross under count, no mention of the 1.4 million forms that weren’t returned). I guess the BBC thought they’d done their bit to … Continue reading
Just adding to David’s post on J’lem (via The Commentator)….the BBC has a profile of each country and illustrates them with a photograph. This is Israel: And this is Palestinians: You get the message….brutal Israeli oppressors armed with machine guns and tanks being heroically resisted by desperate, young Palestinains fighting for their freedom with all they have left to them…stones, bravery and determination. How about that old colonial … Continue reading
Oh joy. The Olympic Torch arrives in London and guess what, yes, someone tries to grab it whilst shouting Allahu Akhbar. Compare the BBC’s coverage here with this here. Almost as if they wanted to underplay the event…surely not. By the way, I see Owen Jones is on Any Questions. He’s a guy you rarely see on the BBC….
Wonder what you think of the BBC’s coverage of the Ldn games? Where? Oh, just trying for consistency… Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s spokesman Mark Regev sent a letter to the Director of the BBC’s Bureau in Israel, Paul Danahar on Thursday after the BBC Sport page failed to identify Israel’s capital city as Jerusalem. Until Wednesday afternoon, the page offering information about the Palestinian Olympic team referred to its capital as ‘East Jerusalem’, … Continue reading
Friday arrives and so does the new Open Thread. Please keep detailing the BIAS.
Horrible story about the loss of life in that Denver movie theatre – BBC quick to tell us the shooter was a “White American”
BBC’s doom mongering over the Olympics is gathering pace. Plenty of people contacting the Today programme to complain….such complaints have been flooding in for over a week as noted in a previous post. The BBC’s response? It was to wind up the rhetoric even more…immediately after Montague read out a complaint (and one praising the coverage) she linked to a story in Der Spiegel which said that the London Olympics … Continue reading
Mark Easton has surely been abducted by Tory Central Office and replaced with someone more willing to sing to their tune. First he betrayed the BBC narrative and admitted that The Big Society, in some respects, may actually be working, encouraging communities to become active and to work together towards a common goal rather than have the dead hand of government tell them what they need. Now he has … Continue reading
Suited bankers maybe the new scourge of our age but the BBC does enjoy some roguish ‘petty thieving’ by immigrant Romanian pickpockets who are rather daring with dazzling skills and an enterprise and professionalism so sadly lacking in our own underclass of thieving toerags . Yes immigrants can teach us a lot. This was brought to my attention in the comments and is a remarkably ill judged piece that reports … Continue reading
Over 3,000 BBC staff are using tax avoidance schemes. You might think that this would be of great interest to a news organisation which has set itself the task to root out corrupt and ‘immoral’ practices in politics, banking and , er, other media companies. You would be wrong. As the Daily mail points out when given the chance to talk to the chairman of the public accounts committee they … Continue reading
