I wonder what goes on in Richard Black’s brain, though doing so is not easy. On the one hand, you have this, a report from the Global Warming Policy Foundation – set up by a former Chancellor of the Exchequer and a raft of eminent UK citizens – stating that an investigation needs to be carried out into problems in the ways that the various investigations into Climategate were carried … Continue reading
Time for a new Open Thread, folks. BBC loving have a go at Sky’s Richard Keyes & Andy Gray (some private conservations are OK, it appears, it just depends WHO). They have the Jihad at Moscow Airport and so much more to spin…the floor is yours…. Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
The BBC has figured out their Narrative on these leaked documents from the Israel/Palestinian peace process. Naturally, Israel gets the worst of it. But there is a moment of glaring hypocrisy.Jerusalem’s troubled geography Right from the start, we see the direction it’s headed. The release of thousands of leaked documents apparently showing Palestinian willingness to compromise over Israeli settlements once again highlights Jerusalem’s troubled geography – and damages the credibility … Continue reading
James Delingpole has a stunning post on this BBC Horizon programme which sets out – as usual – to rubbish those who oppose the AGW orthodoxy. There is nothing I can add to Dellers, other than to say that the BBC is sinking to ever-lower depths in its climate change lying. Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
The story here is not that the BBC is cutting £34m from its web spending, axing 200 sites and “closing” 360 website posts. These may be minor, cosmetic steps in the right direction, but that’s all. No, the real isue here is that the corporation will continue to spend the obscene sum of £130m+ a year on its web operations for a cacaphony of services that are simply not needed. … Continue reading
I know we have already covered Danny Cohen’s pronouncement that BBC comedy is not “working class” enough, but I must say how I enjoyed this debate on the subject on Today this morning. James Delingpole is excellent and comedian Chris McGlade does not say what they think he is going to say. So the entire interview goes WRONG but in a good way. Listen to Justin squirm, it will set … Continue reading
Another Monday morning and the BBC kicks with the usual narratives. Global hunger caused by massive population growth (aided and abetted by global warming, natch) was in the spotlight and occupied prime-time on Today. Professor Sir John Beddington – advisor to the Coalition – was on to tell us just how awful it all is. If one was cynical, it could be argued that this was a timely and well … Continue reading
Breaking News. Al Jazeera and Alan Rusbridger-Assange of the UK’s leading liberal arm of the Goebbels Reich Ministry of propaganda have Wikileaked thousands of protocol documents, which appear to show that the Palestinians have offered to concede even more than absolutely everything to the swaggering intransigent illegal Israelis. The Guardian is quoted as saying ”This selfless Palestinian generosity demonstrates the weakness of their leadership and has nothing to do with … Continue reading
Peter Sissons’ attack on the BBC continues in the Daily Mail today. Though there are no startling revelations – the disrespect he chronicles that is shown to the Royal Family, as evidenced by the handling of the death of the Queen Mother, has been evident for decades – what strikes me is the strength of his writing, and his dignity. This is emphatically not a man expressing bitterness (as the … Continue reading
Early this morning Jon Donnison said something which I’ll paraphrase: “Israel has investigated its own conduct over the Mavi Marmara and it’s about to publish its findings. If, as reports suggest, it exonerates itself, it will be regarded as a whitewash.” All day, BBC News 24 has featured the news about this investigation, taking care to emphasise the Turkish reaction.Luckily for me, Elder of Ziyon has already tackled the BBC’s … Continue reading
