Sandy Toksvig, presenter of Radio 4’s so-called News Quiz – actually a propaganda fest for the presenter’s and panellists’ liberal prejudices – summarises all that I loathe about the BBC. She’s a lefty, smug, holier-than-thou, no-talent performer who thinks she’s very funny. Despite this, she’s carved out a career at the corporation and she is evidently adored by her bosses. Miss Toksvig clearly thought it was hilarious in an edition … Continue reading
The BBC – in its venomous hatred of fossil fuels – was very quick this week to link attempts to extract shale gas with earthquakes and to emphasise the danger that such efforts would alarmingly cause tap water to ignite because aquifers could become impregnated with methane. Dramatic pictures of these flaming taps (from a US propaganda film, it now transpires, although this was not made clear in the bulletins) … Continue reading
I was having a look at Katty Kay’s Twitter page, wondering if she had said anything about Sarah Palin lately. Not only is Palin on tour (as we know from Mark Mardell’s sneering the other day), but she said something yesterday about Paul Revere which raised a few eyebrows. It turns out Palin was actually correct and, as usual, a few Leftoid media dopes made fools of themselves laughing at … Continue reading
Anyone catch this wonderful interview on the BBC this morning with Millie Tant and her feminist tendency? It concerns the opening of a Playboy club in London and all good feminists are up in arsm against this unspeakable evil. I bet that she was speaking on behalf of every good Beeboid although to be fair Michael Winder took the proverbial! Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
For as many years as I can remember, the BBC has propagated the line that the State always knows what is best for us. This is particularly accentuated when the Government is Socialist but the BBC default line is that State knows best. So I was somewhat surprised to hear John Humphrys suggest during this interview that the State should keep its nose out of our business. The subject: The … Continue reading
When, why and how did the rot set in at the BBC? As an ex-employee who joined the corporation in 1978 when there were at least some news and programme editors who did not support left-wing lunacy, I have often pondered this point. But a penny dropped this morning when I read an excellent piece about the inestimable corrosive damage caused to Africa by Live Aid…which also has led inexorably … Continue reading
As the 2012 Presidential election gets underway (ugh, already?), it’s time for an update on what the Tea Party movement has been up to lately. The BBC has been utterly silent since begrudgingly admitting an influence on the 2010 mid-term results, so it’s well worth pointing out what they don’t think is newsworthy. First, here’s some news which dispels the BBC’s accusations that the Tea Party movement’s primary motivation is … Continue reading
Friday dawns and time for you to tell me what has been bothering YOU about BBC coverage. I’m waiting here in Room 101…. Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
A Biased BBC reader advises me; Have a look at this review of over 2,700 links (only a portion of thousands more links, but adecent chunk) It is a snapshot of outward bound links to National Dailes taken on 31st May 2011 around 9:15pm. The Guardian is way out infront. It’s either disproportionate advertising which I believe is against the rulesor is bias towards one newspaper, or both. Click through to … Continue reading
Was away yesterday so hence lack of posts but having got back I see the BBC are still running with their meme that the private sector and the “profit” motive are deleterious to our good health. They have been combining the issues of Southern Cross and Bristol Nursing Home to weave the narrative that only the well run financially responsible always-caring NHS can provide us with good healthcare. I believe … Continue reading
