Mark Mardell is so excited about Obama giving his support for gay marriage. A “courageous act” on this “hot button issue” chirps the Beeb’s man in Washington as he religiously obeys the BBC handbook on brown-nosing Barack Obama at very possible opportunity. But many Democrats would rather their man led, than followed. Just because the timing of this announcement was unplanned and unwanted doesn’t mean it was undebated within the … Continue reading →

BBC Home editor Mark Easton believes Downing Street must be disappointed by the small scale of today’s strikes because, apparently, it shows that the government’s attempts to create an engaged citizenry is failing: But if there is a surprise at the action today, it is that we haven’t seen more of it. And as I shall explain, I think for some in Downing Street, that is a bit of a … Continue reading →

Another recurrent BBC theme at the moment is the idea that the shareholders are revolting…..against the “big bosses” and their pay and bonus schemes. In fact they are prepared to go to the ends of the Earth to prove it, in this case, Australia. The government is to set out in the Queen’s Speech how it plans to give shareholders more power to control executive pay. Vas Kolesnikoff, chief executive … Continue reading →

Following in from yesterday’s post about those Pakistani Muslims convicted on grotesque sex crimes against young white girls, I tuned in to Today this morning to see how the BBC would develop this story. It was exactly as feared. They wheeled on the Deputy Children’s Commissioner Sue Berelowitz who explained that the grooming of young girls for sex is a crime going on in every community, not just the Asian community. … Continue reading →

I know you have been discussing this on the Open Thread but I wanted to focus on the BBC coverage of the conviction of Nine Muslims in Rochdale for sexual crimes against young girls.

A Biased BBC reader writes; “I note that James Lovelock has changed his tune on climate change. When he was preaching gloom and doom the BBC loved to cover his every word.

Remarkable; “Production staff in an English TV crew were dismayed when they lost the chance to work at the World Snooker Championships for the BBC.  But their disappoint turned to anger, when they realised their jobs were still available, but had been replaced under a quota scheme which favoured  employing staff from Scotland.  As a result, Scottish production crews were relocated to England and put up in a hotel – … Continue reading →

Biased BBC’s Alan reports  “Always a good morning to hear Justin Webb making a hash of things and getting the wrong end of the stick….that’ll be most mornings then. He was chortling and enjoying the ‘Shareholder Spring’ and which he suggested was all about a movement against the greed of the Bosses who were being paid for failure….and refuting that old ‘myth’ that the companies couldn’t recruit the best staff if they didn’t … Continue reading →
