I have reported before that the PR outfit Futerra is a BBC-linked organisation that trains BBC people on how to spread climate change propaganda. Here, Richard Black, bemoaning the scrapping of the useless quango the Sustainable Development Commission (SDC), fantasises that it might wash its hands of dirty government funding and transmute instead into a body that becomes “a people’s watchdog” on green government. He spouts with enthusiastic glee: The … Continue reading
I was listening, on and off, to Today this morning. Somewhere in a news bulletin I thought I heard:“US President Barack Obama has condemned the shooting of two American airmen. He described it as an “outrageous act”, and pledged to “ensure that all the perpetrators are brought to justice”I’m sure they will leave no turn unstoned to discover the motive.Then I heard Evan Davis discussing the Pope’s extraordinary decision to … Continue reading
The BBC’S DAY OF RAGE at the Government approval for the Newscorp buy out of BSkyB continues. I wonder what it is about the prospect of an alleged all dominant media monopoly that so vexes the BBC? Obviously the BBC does not “do” irony. Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
I’ve been away for a few days and am busy catching up on recent blogposts and comments (and excellent stuff it is too). I see that the BBC has devoted some attention to links between the Gaddafi family and various British institutions and politicians. However, I can’t seem to find any mention of the useful idiots who, in the name of climate change, supported this particular PR exercise/vanity project back … Continue reading
No, I don’t listen to Woman’s Hour (or Wimmin’s Hour to be more accurate) but it happened to be on when I was in the car earlier and before I could turn it off I caught a conversation concerning how “patronising” the use of the word “lady” is when referring to a member of the contradictory gender. There was some arch-feminist on – let’s call her Millie Tant – who … Continue reading
Hi folks. It’s Wednesday, mid way through our weekly bias fest, so time for a new one of these! I’m making my re-appearance to remind you that the Ministry of Truth was never as malignant at the State Broadcaster has become. You want proof? Provide it here… Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
Truly nauseating interview with Assistant Commissioner Lynne Owens and Shami Chakrabarti, director of Liberty on Today this morning. The essence, as presented by the BBC, is that the Met are trying to be more polite to street demonstrators and will be tweeting them, providing them with public toilets and bottle of water in future demonstrations. Not sure if aromatherapy is also provided but you can bet it is at least under … Continue reading
Cracking morning for Tory-bashing on Today. At 7.35am Nick Robinson got stuck into what he sees as David Cameron’s inconsistency on Libya. The idea that a UK PM might talk about possible military intervention in the form of an air-inclusion zone outrages BBC sentiment and this was not the last of it. Then, at 7.42am, the BBC runs an item where it brought “Big Society” Minister Nick Hurd to a … Continue reading
Robin Shepherd spots the BBC’s response to Iran’s official complaint that the Olympic logo reads “ZION.” See how they do that? The 2 is like a Z, the 1 underneath is the I, the 0 is, of course, the O, and the other 2 is a sideways N. The Iranians find the word Zion so objectionable that they’ve threatened to boycott the Olympics if nothing is done. In this clip … Continue reading
Fascinating interview @7.50am on Today concerning the Christian couple denied the right to foster any more children because they dare not endorse homosexuality values for 8 year olds. If you listen to the tone of the interview, there is clear BBC disbelief that ANY Christian person would not seek to convey the joys of the gay lifestyle. As ever the implication is that Christians are bigots and sexists.Having a go … Continue reading
