Biased BBC

Saturday, November 08, 2008 David Vance # CITIZENS OF THE WORLD UNITE! Did anyone else have the misfortune to tune into the rancid"Today" on BBC Radio 4 Obama this morning? God it was hard to take. Now that we are all black, the lead item was from race-hustler Trevor Philips suggesting that there is institutional racism throughout the British political system and that Obama could never have gotten himself elected here because of it. It's my view that the BBC has been a key propagandist for the left wing drivel that every part of the British establishment is "institutionally racist" and so it never misses a chance to further advance this illusion. I guess it also helps keep useless but well paid quangos like the Equality Commission in gainful employment. Later on Today ran an item on how "citizens of the world" were reacting to the election of The One and, as you might expect, the only reaction broadcast was one of sheer elation, of unrequited adoration. "He's like the guy you want to watch on Youtube" exclaims one excited German, in an example of the inanity broadcast without any critical counter-comment. Now I would expect little else from the socialist-loving appeasement-minded internationalist class but the BBC has a duty to provide balance and I was wondering if all Israeli citizens are jumping up and down with joy, for instance? They trotted on sir David Manning, former British ambassador to Washington and historian Alastair Horne, who then engaged in a further masturbatory O-Love in. Horne's voice washoarse from cheering for Obama, he declared! The item finished with the amazing suggestion by Horne being made that the US needs to be"friendlier to Russia"(Where Putin is wildly popular, Horne adds) and one way to do this would be for the US to unilaterally announce the removal of US Missile defence stations. Hey, we're going back to the 70's and The One isn't even President yet. Is Horne a communist? Talking of the going back in time, on a superficially innocent sounding item looking back at the 1980's "Dallas" TV show, the BBC managed to get the dig in that perhaps the success of this show had given Texas Oil-barons a better media image than they deserved and so this might have accidentally ..gasp ...helped George Bush. Liberal Larry Hagman was quick to dismiss the very thought of it. WHEN the Biased BBC book does come together, it needs to unite all these threads into a coherent narrative that exposes the dangers that the continued existence of the BBC presents to British democracy. It's a serious business folks, especially in a country where we have no Fox News and where "fair and balanced" have no meaning any longer. Here endeth the lesson, but good to be back with you all!

Another Beeb executive has quit over Ross and Brand's phone calls. And the BBC is to apologise to the nation. Just for the call, mind. But it's a start, so tune in today on Radio 2 at 10am, and again just after 9pm. Bloody repeats. Comments: 4 (unread) - Biased BBC Home
