BBC news priorities…a reader observes; “The Camerons leaving their child at the pub for all of 15 minutes, which took place over 2 months ago, is considered the 5th most important headline on the BBC today. And never missing the chance to have a swipe; ”Communities Secretary Eric Pickles – who is promoting a scheme to give English councils a financial incentive to deal with so-called “troubled families” – was … Continue reading
Monday arrives and time for a new one of these….sorry for delay in posting this!
A Biased BBC reader remarks on the all too obvious multicultural engineering that is going on in Newsround – the BBC children’s programme. “I only noticed it because my kids watch it, but if you would care to google image “newsround presenters” you will see that the ratio of Black and Ethnics Minorities presenters to white presenters is just about the opposite of what the ratio is in the country … Continue reading
Was entertained by this and all on the same BBC web page today.. An additional £10m ($15m) will be provided by the UK for countries in West Africa facing the threat of drought, the government has announced. And… The Department for International Development (DfID) said action was needed before the rainy season made large areas of West Africa inaccessible for aid workers in as little as four weeks’ time. Hap … Continue reading
I’m sure those behind the IPPR think tank and UCU academics union Report which ludicrously suggests graduates bring in £180,000 more than those with A-levels over their working life will be pleased with the profile the BBC affords such speculative trade union driven nonsense. All hail the State.
Biased BBC contributor Alan observes “Not much choice on the radio today…either the resurrection of the KKK in Poland and the Ukraine or the appalling possibility of Tom Winsor heading the HMIC. The BBC manage to find the completely independent Police Federation to talk about Tom Winsor’s merits but I never heard any description of exactly what responsibities the HMIC actually has….and what effect it has on the work of … Continue reading
A reader brings my attention to this; So called comedy on Radio 4 at 6.30 tonight Simon day show http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01jhjs3Character, working class Cockney, claims to have got his kids into a good school in london, with high Ofstead rating, thanks to the immigrants apparently, ‘the white kids are all idiots’ he says! Imagine if a ‘comedian’ said that about any other ethnic group? Really pees me off, the constant denigration of … Continue reading
Friday arrives and another busy week on Biased BBC comes to and end! Here’s a new OPEN THREAD to see us off into the weekend but more posts to follow during the next few days! Do keep detailing the bias as you see it!
Well, it’s pretty clear that the BBC is unhappy that Tom Winsor is the preferred new Chief Inspector of Constabulary for England and Wales. On Today this morning they provided two slots for critics to have a pop at Mr Winsor, one at 7.09 and another @ 8.16am. Lining up behind the Police Federation, the BBC will undoubtedly provide a pulpit for all those like Paul McKeever who put their self … Continue reading
Biased BBC contributor Alan asks..” David Owen says we should leave the EU if it finally decides to integrate politically and financially…..but did the high fliers of the BBC’s top political programme notice? The Today programme quizzed David Owen but failed to draw out the essential facts about his real views on European integration….although he did in fact say quietly about staying in the EU…‘personally I wouldn’t do that’……but Naughty completely … Continue reading
