We love you in the newsroom.”“Agreed that left ideas don’t get enough hearing on BBC. Aiming for 95% left – 5% right. Fancy a fuck?” “BBC looking for co-presenter for new Giles Fraser series. Interested?” Further suggestions welcome. Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.

Only the BBC would dare to present Gordon Brown as some sort of model politician, not on the make, in any way. As B-BBC Alan points out;“Evan Davis standsguard over the corpse of Gordon Brown’s dignity this morning when theIndependent runs a story outlining the profitable new career in making speechesthat Brown has embarked upon. Davis admits Brown has raked in over £1.4 million since being debagged of hisPrime Ministerial office….but … Continue reading
A Biased BBC reader notes; “I heard this story onRadio 1’s Newsbeat last night, they were trying to claim that in the US 1 in 10young people have been physically attacked in a relationship but then foundsomeone to better the statistic and claim 50% of young people in relationshipshad been subjected to physical violence (I wonder if that means the other 50%of people questioned were the abusers?) Utter rubbish either way … Continue reading
Biased BBC’s Alan reports…. “The BBC trumpets on its frontpage a Greek tragedy for Greece’s historical artifacts…..‘Armed robbers have stolen dozens of artefacts from a museum in Ancient Olympia – the birthplace of the Olympics, Greek officials say.’ The BBC were delighted, some might say, to report the looting of Iraq’s national museum during the Iraq War….because it showed the inhuman cost of Bush and Blair’s illegal war on Iraq’s … Continue reading
Tonight Question Time comes from Nottingham. David Dimbleby is joined by Ken Clarke, John Prescott, LibDem Susan Kramer, businesswoman Julie Meyer* and a random lefty freak called Owen Jones.

As with last week, … Continue reading

Those of you will follow these things will know that the BBC is cheer leading for the Socialist candidate, Hollande. He has said that if elected he sees “finance as the enemy”, he will raise taxes and he will employ tens of thousands of … Continue reading
Richard Black has plumbed new depths of partisanship. Here, with vicious claws out and fists flying, he sneeringly attacks the Heartland Institute, an organisation which on meagre resources, bravely tries to take on the climate lobby. For Mr Black – and no doubt the full complement of his cheering BBC eco-nut chums – they belong to a most vile category of existence – they are”of overtly libertarian bent”. Their crime? … Continue reading
After dancing on the head of a pin for pages and pages, the conclusion is that “The Balen report was held for purposes of journalism. On the premise that it was also held for purposes other than those of journalism, it was not predominantly so held. That is why I consider that the report lay beyond the scope of the Act; and why I agree that the appeal should be … Continue reading
Here is Richard Littlejohn: ‘Kevin Bakhurst has deemed it impossible not to mention the Conservative ties of the Tax Payer’s Alliance The BBC has decided it has a duty to ‘out’ those dangerous headbangers at the Taxpayers’ Alliance. We may think the alliance is an independent body devoted to exposing the widespread waste of public money. But according to Kevin Bakhurst, controller of the BBC News Channel and the News at … Continue reading
