Best laugh of the day. Labour called for ”clarity and reassurance” from the BBC after the director general of the corporation was photographed going into a meeting in Downing Street to apparently discuss coverage of government spending cuts. Cue four years of the BBC going out its poisonous way to attack the Coalition in order to prove how unbiased it is. Everybody….”Though cowards flinch and traitors sneer,We’ll keep the red … Continue reading
First of all we had the headlines about Hamas and Islamic Jihad’s pledge to kill more Israelis, but they used the phrase “Israeli targets” which subtly lends legitimacy to their murderous intentions.Of course the real threat is to Israeli civilians, but the BBC would rather we didn’t realise this. Then they announced that right-wing Israelis were angry with the prime minister for stating that Mahmoud Abbas was a partner for … Continue reading
Interesting to read Andrew Gilligan’s critiques of the BBC’s love-in with radical Islam. ‘Why does the BBC air Islamist propaganda?’ Andrew Gilligan13 March 2010The Islamic Forum of Europe is decried by most Muslims as vicious and unrepresentative, says Andrew Gilligan. So why did Any Questions air its views? ‘The BBC’s propaganda for fundamentalist Islam ‘ One of the main conclusions I drew from my Telegraph/Channel 4 Dispatches investigation of the … Continue reading
OK, I’ve vented my spleen at the BBC for the day and now I invite you to share with us the bias you are picking up! Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
I’ll post a new Open thread shortly but the BBC has been biased beyond belief on Today his morning and I wanted to cover a handful of these items. It all kicks off with the news that BBC DG Mark Thompson had been spotted going into Downing Street and photographers had been able to take images of the papers he was carrying. The suggestion was that Thompson could be trying … Continue reading
If anyone is tempted to believe Mark Thompson’s ludicrous assertion that BBC bias was in the past, take a look at Roger Harrabin’s attempt to discuss dispassionately the recent attack by Inter Academy Council (IAC) on the snake oil salesmen techniques of the IPCC. BBC reports about the IAC such as this one have already done their best to minimise the importance of the damning IAC verdict. Our Roger pretends … Continue reading
Pleased to read that BBC DG Mark Thompson shares our view that the BBC is biased towards the left. Read what he says here. Of course he is quick to point out that this confirmed BIAS was in the past, not the present and the BBC now proudly has an “honourable tradition of journalists from the right” working for the corporation. How fascinating, who are they? He confesses to that … Continue reading
A B-BBC reader spells it out… How the BBC downplay the environmental gunman shot dead by police in the USA. This from US news: ‘Lee said at the time that he experienced an ‘‘awakening” when he watched former Vice President Al Gore’s environmental documentary ‘‘An Inconvenient Truth.” ‘The planet does not need humans’ ‘ Not on the BBC. It compares this situation with the man who knifed the Muslim taxi … Continue reading
Strange item here concerning the system that Labour uses to elect it’s new leader. On the one hand, the item makes is abundantly clear that one person can have multiple votes when it comes to voting for the Labour leader. You would have thought this was vigorously challenged but I thought John Humphyrs was exceedingly gentle with Labour Party Chairman Tony Lloyd. (Note how Humphyrs speaks highly of John Prescott). In … Continue reading
Sometimes BBC bias sickens me and then, sometimes, it enrages me. This item this morning falls into the latter camp. I’ll pass on Jeremy Bowen’s loaded commentary, we all know how anti-Israel he is. But I simply couldn’t believe way how Hamas apologist Professor Beverley Milton Edwards was allowed to come on to the Today programme this morning and apologise for Hamas (Islamic resistance) This wretched academic, who disgracefully infests my Alma … Continue reading
