The Guardian is the print version of the BBC and so it comes as NO surprise to read a sympathetic article in it entitled “The BBC must reprogramme itself to win.” “The big salaries paid to some stars give the government a line of attack that it believes resonates with the public. Other criticisms rarely do. The BBC remains popular; the licence fee is one of the least-detested taxes .” … Continue reading
One of the constant idiocies of the BBC’s reporting of climate change is the misleading choice of pictures used in stories. Power stations are picked, for example, to show hazardous “smoke” – the reality is that what is shown is steam. Then there’s endless pictures of ice shelves, icebergs, cracks in the ice, not to mention stormy seas, or the aftermath of mudslides, hurricanes, monsoons and the like. All of … Continue reading
Right then. B-BBC has been gaining an increasing amount of media attention with more and more people realising that we provide an invaluable daily guide to the bias of our State Broadcaster. With the Daily Mail and places like Conservative Home also paying attention, I do think it is important that all who comment here ensure that they use language that does not leave the site open to criticism for … Continue reading
Okay. here’s another egregious example of the BBC’s hatred of Israel.Please cast your mind back to July, and the “Rape by Deception case.”Various news organisations heard that an Israeli court had convicted a poor Arab Israeli of rape just because he tricked a silly loose woman into believing he was a Jew.“Oh!” they cried. “In the eyes of an Israeli – sexual intimacy with an Arab is tantamount to rape!” … Continue reading
The first three items in this FOOC have something in common. The first report by Jonathan Head is about Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. The more we hear the more we fear. Kate Adie’s flippant introduction to Jennifer Pak’s report from Kuala Lumpur belies the tragic consequences of life in a regime where sex outside marriage is taboo and illegitimate babies are abandoned. From Senegal, Angus Crawford briefly reflects … Continue reading
Smug metrosexual leftist elitists hate Sarah Palin. The prospect of her standing for the Presidency and even, gosh, WINNING it, induces a cold sweat amongst BBC types. So, it’s important to ensure she never gets an even break, Cue interview with David Frum, former Bush speechwriter, (a decent guy who I have corresponded with) but who is an on-the-record Palin hater…here’s Frum from last year. We are afraid that it … Continue reading
So, our security services disrupt what appears to be a terror plot to kill Roman Catholics in London. Elsewhere in the media we discover they are of “North African” origin, possibly some Algerians. I’m guessing Mohammed might be a common name. The BBC tells us what they are NOT! God but they are so dhimmfied. Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
Tim Montgomerie, in his opinion piece, accompanying the Daily Mail editorial about whinge watch, observes: Most BBC staff members probably make every effort to leave their political views at the door of the recording studio, but if you are surrounded by people who have only ever worked for the state and have never been part of the wealthcreation process, you struggle to think any differently. What utter nonsense, the sort … Continue reading

First in whinge watch, a perfect story in the BBC green lexicon: nutter scientists call for new EU laws that will see billions of pounds of our money spent on driving out so called alien species from Europe. Of course, the BBC website reports this buffoonery with bated-breath admiration because it involves their beloved EU doing what it does best, that is, pouring cash down the drain. I’m all for … Continue reading
