Israel’s image is being buried by an avalanche of negative reporting, which spans the whole gamut from the severe to the subliminal. The wholesale acceptance of the so-called Palestinian narrative, and near total rejection of the Israeli one, questioning Israel’s right to exist, the interminable, repetitive reiteration of the number of Palestinian casualties compared with what they apparently regard as pitifully few Israeli ones that’s tacked on to almost every … Continue reading
As spotted by a B-BBC readers.. BBC headline “Israeli air strike kills Palestinian man” Sounds like the Israelis have once again targeted andkilled an innocent man, who was just minding his own business. Most likely a humanitarian? Nasty Israelis. Only read a bit further- they targetted militants who hadjust fired a rocket into Israel. Why does the headline not read “Israeli airstrikekills Palestinian terrorist” ? We all know why, don’t we? Click through to … Continue reading
I recall when Labour introduced the car scrappage scheme. The BBC were to the fore in promoting how enlightened this idea was. This morning I listened to this item on the BBC in which it suggested that the car scrappage scheme was not a good idea. The BBC dances both sides of the argument to suit its OWN political bias. When Labour did things they were good, if the Coalition … Continue reading
Well, it was inevitable that the BBC would start cooing when Ken Clarke takes the same line that has been pushed for years by the likes of the Howard League. The “Prison doesn’t work” meme is recurrent and now that there is a Conservative Justice Secretary with uber-liberal values, we can expect him to get an easy ride. I note that David Green from Civitas got an outing to dispute … Continue reading
Richard Black continues his distinguished record today of unbiased reporting. His theme is to give his wholehearted support to lunatic calls made by climate alarmist-in-chief Lord Adair Turner that would de-industrialise Britain, hobble our economy and force millions into fuel poverty. Mr Black faithfully reports the Committee on Climate Change’s calls for more electric cars (insanely expensive and with the range of a hobbled llama), “clean” energy (technology that is … Continue reading
Sadly, I haven’t time to dissect properly last night’s Panorama stitch-up about climate change, but it should not go without mention. James Delingpole does a wonderful job here. Suffice it to say that Panorama reporter Tom Heap – laughingly believing he was being objective – deliberately distorted the statements from the “sceptics” he spoke to. In other words, par for the course. Click through to read and contribute comments on … Continue reading
James Naughtie is baffled. Some bad men have attacked a children’s’ UN summer camp in Gaza. He asks Jon Donnison if he knows anything. “Could it be something to do with Hamas?” he speculates. “Only, it’s the second time this has happened.”“Why do you suppose Hamas don’t like the UN summer camps?” He wonders.“They’re jealous, because their own summer camps are rubbish. Also, they don’t like girls cavorting on the … Continue reading

Why oh why has the BBC spent so much time promoting Glastonbury? It’s been all over our screens and yet it is a minority musical event for hippies and druggies. Oh hang on a sec,,, Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
Great to see that BBC Northern Ireland have been showing a programme called “Adams” tonight – plotting the “path to peace” chartered by Grizzly Adams. Yes, we discover tree-loving Gerry is a deep thinker who reached out to his enemies in order that we may all live in peace. Except, that is, for all those thousands murdered by the cut-throat gang of terrorists he commanded. Next week – Hitler – … Continue reading
