Easing my way back into this post-Christmas blogging and I am sure you will have read about the horrific mass murder in Texas carried out by a “gunman who shot dead six relatives before killing himself at a family Christmas celebration in Texas was dressed as Santa Claus.” The curious thing is that the killer was also a devout Muslim and it looks like it was an honour killing with … Continue reading
The BBC is fond of the familiar. It favours the tried and tested, nay, the formulaic, all year round. But tradition and ritual are an extra special feature at Christmas. It’s what the audience wants, is it not? , “Give them more of what they liked last time round!” those innovative creative commissioning editors must have squealed as they sat round the table in the BBC’s department of inspiration and … Continue reading
How wonderful it is that my debut post here on Biased BBC times perfectly with a nugget of a post over at Bishop Hill, which underlines the BBC’s reputation for telling half the story all the time. The subject is climate change, so once again our eyes turn towards the Socratic wonder that is the BBC Environment Analyst, Roger Harrabin. Speaking as a member of what appears to have been … Continue reading
Since the IPCC admitted last year telling huge porkies about the dangers from Himalayan glaciers, dozens of greenies have clearly been sent there to prove that they were right after all. Last month, for example, Richard Black faithfully reported, on a sample size of 10 out of 54,000 glaciers, that ‘ice loss was accelerating’, underlining the need for massive new taxes at the Durban climate talks. It was rubbish, of … Continue reading
There’s yet another BBC North America correspondent pushing an agenda these days. Ian Pannell has gone to Detroit to spin a tale of woe and misery, blaming all of it on the current economic situation. He even clearly articulates the message one is meant to take away: “The gap between the rich and poor in America is now bigger than it’s been for 30 years.” Pannell closes the piece with … Continue reading

Bang on cue, the BBC couldn’t let Christmas arrive without having yet ANOTHER go at the pesky Jews. Check out this outrageous item ran on Today this morning. It seems that Israeli security restrictions are causing no end of hassle for Palestinian Shepherds seeking to attend festivities in Bethlehem. (No mention as to why these security restrictions are needed, but then this is the BBC..). Also note the repeated use … Continue reading
Propagating AGW cultism is an essential element of BBC broadcasting, as Biased BBC’s Alan points out here… “The BBC have beenbusy recently pumping out the propaganda to support their belief in man madeglobal warming. Many programmes have suddenly appeared about the Arctic andAntarctic….surely no coincidence.Many of the conclusionss are highly questionable and some outright misleading. Apart from the ‘Frozen Planet’ advert for AGW we have these other programmesbombarding us with … Continue reading
The bias of the BBC is often accompanied by the sheer inanity. Next week, the Today programme will have “guest editors” and one of these is the “comedian” Stewart Lee. Clearly the BBC are so excited about Stewart’s forthcoming editorial debut that they felt inclined to allow him to do an item on Today this morning. (7.42am) Stewart did not disappoint and gave us his curious opinions as to what … Continue reading
