LOVING THE CALIPHATE, HATING ISRAEL

A Biased BBC reader writes;“Palestinian writer Raja Shehadeh (natch, you know what’s coming) uses this platform affordedo him by the BBC on Radio 4’s Book of the Week slot to promote war, the Caliphate and death to Israel. It is written seductively in a quiet manner, poetic and lyrical…but listen to the words and there is no mistaking the intent…to incite the Arab world to attack Israel and to do away … Continue reading

GREEN TO EARTH, CAN YOU HEAR ME?

I was pleased to see Green MP and BBC favourite Caroline “I am not of this world” Lucas on the BBC breakfast sofa this morning stoutly proclaiming that the UK has no need for nuclear power. Apparently better house insulation, wrapping up warm and having all those vital low carbon sources of energy will do the trick. Naturally the BBC interviewers felt no need to challenge her on any of … Continue reading

THE MURDER OF MIDSOMER

Listened to the BBC fronted jihad against Midsomer Murders co-creator Brian True-May. That will teach him not take ethno/gender/equality seriously – right?

I have to … Continue reading

The President of the United States let slip a little revelation about Himself last week. I’ve been waiting for the BBC to say something, but there has been silence even on Twitter. Last Thursday, the New York Times published this: Mr. Obama has told people that it would be so much easier to be the president of China. As one official put it, “No one is scrutinizing Hu Jintao’s words … Continue reading

MONDAY MORNING BLUES

Classic morning for the UK loathing Conservative-hating Today programme, When they weren’t pushing the anti-Nuclear line, they were doing their best to help undermine Andrew Lansley here,  Then they were suggesting British complicity in torture in Pakistan here. And, if that was not enough, they were pursuing the “lost generation” narrative here.  Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.

NO NUKES IS GOOD NEWS!

Hi folks and welcome to another week on Biased BBC. I’ve received emails from several of you wanting me to highlight what is perceived as the BBC using the Japanese disaster to advance their long standing opposition to Nuclear Power. A reader advises; “There was a great interview HERE with Ian Hor Lacy on March 12th edition of Weekend Breakfast on R5 where Rachel Burden’s exaggerated beliefs about the threat … Continue reading
