So Miliband’s PR puts out some nonsense about the fact that Red Ed can complete a Rubik Cube puzzle in one and a half minutes. The BBC instantly laps this up, runs an item on it here, with the presenter (Evan Davies) quietly expressing his admiration for the puzzle solving skills of the Labour leader even when the guest expressed a view that 10-20 seconds is more like the speed … Continue reading
It’s a theme that the BBC has been hammering all year in as many programmes as possible; our financial woes have been created by the bad and evil and greedy Bankers. There was a remarkably one-sided discussion on the BBC this morning here, nice prime time slot and full of the usual tripe and hype about the alleged evils of the financial class. Funny how BBC experts all manage to … Continue reading
I’m no football fan but I think the BBC are off-side with their treatments of these two stories. First off, John Terry “racist” But earlier today, Luis Suarez “misunderstood”.Wonder could Terry claim he is of Uruguayan heritage? Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.

Mercosur, which includes Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay, came to the decision at a summit in the Uruguayan capital, Montevideo.

You have to admire Trevor Kavanagh, associate editor of The Sun, for really putting it to the BBC. Listen to this – it’s not so much about bias in the item itself but rather about how the BBC itself has lied and misled and Kavanagh makes some excellent points about the dagers of media regulation. Anne Diamond has a less than polished outing (She misunderstands the Thomas Jefferson quote that … Continue reading

Following the impact of the BBC’s Pedigree Dogs Examined, where the BBCwithdrew coverage of Crufts and other organizations, including the RSPCA,withdrew from their annual coverage of Crufts, several reports were compiled bythe welfarati concerning pedigree dogs. Basically they all shared the view thatthe Kennel Club were encouraging the production of canine mutants … Continue reading
The UKuncut movement must feel satisfied at the publicity afforded it by the BBC this morning. Tim Street gets a four minute canter here, followed up by an extensive interview with Margaret Hodge here! Oh, those evil corporations. Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
I would not normally post on the same topic two days running, so forgive me. But right on cue after my post yesterday about Richard Black exaggerating the impact of nitrogen dioxide, his colleague Mike Amos has obligingly followed up with a supine piece about the dangerous effects of ‘n species’ (greenie for nitrogen compounds). It seems to me that these pesky n****s could be the BBC greenies’ latest line … Continue reading
