Yes, he’s the BBC North America editor, the man with his finger on the pulse of political events in the USA. I recall back in January when Mark Mardell brought us to near tears with his moving commentary on Obama’s calls for “civil discourse” (Remember that meme, the one that suggested the evil Sarah Palin was more or less directly responsible for the Arizona shootings?) But here’s the problem; For some … Continue reading
Have to laugh at the faux hysteria the BBC are trying to whip up in their endless jihad against the evil Murdoch empire! Have you see this? Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
It’s pretty sad when the Muslim Brotherhood’s Ikhwanweb is more informative and balanced than the BBC. Compare and contrast: Fire and graffiti attack on Palestinian mosque in Kasra with Settlers torch mosque in Al-Mughayyir village near Ramallah Both pieces talk about how this was a (misguided and wrong, in my view) retaliation for the Israeli Government’s razing of some illegal Jewish settlements in the area. The BBC reports that the … Continue reading
Another depth plumbed by BBC science reporting. A warmist fanatic – in this case Alun Hubbard, a glaciologist whose self-declared mission is to confirm his fanaticism – has now only to say that he’s “gob-smacked” about the extent of ice loss for it to make a website lead story. Never mind that there is huge controversy about the causes of glacier melt in Greenland, and never mind that many experts … Continue reading

Another BBC reader observes; “Friday 19 August (I think). Jonathan Dimbleby at his worst and most transparent. He gave Harriet Harman a free run with little or no interruption on the riots etc. He then acted as agent provocateur by inviting her to blame the cuts and she got another full go without interruption. Baroness Warsi was then interrupted as usual, something both the Dumbellboys feel free to do, presumably … Continue reading
Biased BBC reader “As I see it” has provided us with the following thoughtful analysis – give it a read! “It is my contention that there is a left-wing bias in the output of the BBC. I happen to have a group of friends with whom I meet at regular intervals for a particular leisure activity. (And no, it doesn’t involve either caravanning or dubious sexual practices in secluded … Continue reading
Biased BBC stalwart Graeme Thompson aka Hippiepooter writes; “I was alerted to this Evan Davis interview with the Prime Minister on the TODAY programme this Friday via the Daily Mail. PM ROWS WITH TODAY SHOW A swallow does not make a Summer, but it is a chink of light that Cameron got short with the partisan line Davis was taking. Davis was like a cocker spaniel trying to impersonate a rottweiler/fox cross, ungamely … Continue reading
A Biased BBC commentator asks; “Is Mark Mardell lying or just a very bad, ill informed journalist? In 2006 Mardell asked the same question about torture as he asks now. ‘I find it interesting that I can’t recall any allegation that the allies used, or discussed using torture during World War II, although there must have been occasions when it might have saved lives or even the liberty of states. … Continue reading
