On his blog, Cash Peters is taking a stand against “the nutjobs and loons”. He has responded to my post about him yesterday by comparing it to “Opposition arsonists who spread fear, irrational and baseless rumors, and a raft of lies about Obama in the hope of destabilizing his power to govern and discredit him and his administration.” Gosh! And armed only with his trusty raw vegetable and a healing … Continue reading
Our old favourite – Question Time is back tonight! Not just any jewel, but the very Koh-I-Noor of BBC bias returns with a peach of a broadcast: a Labour leadership special where the five candidates will be on the panel facing questions from a hand-picked audience. You should all have received your new-season Buzzword Bingo cards by now. For the first programme you’ll need the set which has a picture … Continue reading
Daily Politics reporter Giles Dilnot is the stand-in presenter on Radio Five Live’s Up All Night this week. On this morning’s show he and the show’s regular conservative-hating US TV reviewer (and New Age goofball) Cash Peters discussed the new right-leaning TV network backed by Kelsey Grammer. Here’s the sneering, mocking exchange in full: Listen! Sweet irony – Cash Peters deriding a broadcaster for being one-sided when the BBC has … Continue reading
A B-BBC reader notes… Did you note that yesterday ‘Today’ referred to Billy Wright…..Loyalist terrorist…’exceptionally dangerous and who continued to murder Catholics as mainstream paramilitaries edged towards peace….in some circles his death could be seen as productive.’ Shame the BBC couldn’t bring themselves to condemn Hamas in such tones after the murder of 4 Israelis recently….would the BBC agree Israel was being ‘productive’ in the peace process by killing these … Continue reading

Anyone catch this report from Jeremy Al Bowen as he strolls around the streets of Jerusalam to “find out the mood of the public towards continuing peace negotiations”? Bowen parrots the Palestinian demand that Jerusalem must also be it’s Holy City (as much as it is Israel’s) if there is to be peace – this equivocation is so ludicrous only Bowen could make it. If Palestinians wanted a publicist who … Continue reading
Now then, this was never going to be comfortable issue for the BBC to tackle – perish the thought that State workers are living off the fat of the economic land, enjoying substantial salary benefits over their private sector colleagues with feather bedded pension provision to boot. So, what to do, thinks the State workers in the BBC? They invite on Carl Emmerson from the Institute of Fiscal Studies who … Continue reading
The Global Warming Policy Foundation report into the various “inquiries” that have been held into Climategate was published yesterday, and author Andrew Montford’s very thorough analysis paints a disturbing picture of whitewash and fudge. As regular B-BBC commenter John Anderson lucidly points out in response to my previous post and on What’s Up With That?, coverage of the report by the MSM – even the Guardian – notes that Mr … Continue reading
As readers of Biased- BBC already know, BBC environment correspondent Richard Black has repeatedly filed reports that are rather alarmist about climate change and seem to advance what I would call a crude political agenda, linked closely with the UN’s attempts at world domination. Mr Black is a busy boy behind the scenes, too. He recently chaired a session about that latest UN buzz-word “biodiversity” at the BBC College of … Continue reading
Not often Ofsted comes up with anything useful but today it reveals that half a million children in England alone have been wrongly diagnosed with “special needs”. This instantly raises questions about the professionalism of some teachers and the approach of some schools. Now, this is a problem for the BBC which slavishly promotes the teaching “profession” so how to deal with it? Check out this prime-time 8.10am discussion. The … Continue reading
