It’s always nice when BBC bias is picked up and neatly dissected by others and in The Mail today, Stephen Glover makes the following points regarding the successor to Mark Thompson. “The choice is between BBC apparatchiks: Caroline Thomson, Helen Boaden, George Entwistle and Tim Davie.

I’m sure you will have read that the Toulouse terrorist, Mohammed Merah, has finally met with justice. And a good thing too! However why does the BBC website report keep repeating this… “He had said he was acting to “avenge Palestinian children” and protest against French military interventions overseas.” Ok, I do understand that other odd people, like Baroness Ashton, shared (to a degree) his perverse world view of what … Continue reading

Mr Mowat said it was “not acceptable”, adding it was the BBC’s Newsnight programme which had sparked the row about senior civil servants avoiding tax when it revealed head of … Continue reading
Biased BBC’s Alan suggests… “The BBC approvinglyquote Sarkozy demanding we don’t demonise Muslims for the action of one’deranged Islamist’ as the BBC might put it. However isn’t it true that the ‘deranged Islamist’ killed these Jewish schoolchildren and their teacher precisely because organisations like the BBC haveconstantly demonised Israel and dehumanised Jews and incited anger andresentment towards Jews around the world.
