MORE ECO-WACKERY
>> TUESDAY, AUGUST 11, 2009
Do yourself a favour and have a read of this gloriously biased article on climate change by BBC journo Richard Black. Throughout the article is the assumption that there is NO DEBATE to be had on the merits of Kyoto and for that matter what follows it. For the BBC, the science is "settled" - Al Gore would be so proud of them. Just a pity we have to fund this drivel.
OBAMA SORTS IT OUT...
Have you read this piece of pro-Obama garbage churned out by our entirely neutral State Broadcaster? It's been fun watching The One flounder on this topic as he tries to socialise healthcare but the BBC is determined to present him as master of all he surveys. Isn't it also nice to read there were no "angry scenes" at the meeting. Nice touch BBC.
It's All About No Oil ...
Just giving the garage its summer clean and sort, when the following idiocy was aired on the PM program about ten minutes ago. They were discussing the Burmese sentence on the noble Aung San Suu Kyi.
I paraphrase :"... and we've just had a mail come in on the subject of Burma, which says 'Isn't it a tragedy that Burma hasn't got any oil ? Otherwise the resolutions would soon be passed and the invasion forces built up ...'"
Now there are a lot of ignorant people in the UK, and this chap may not have heard, say, of a company called Burmah Oil, despite the fact that Denis Thatcher once decorated its board. Any idiot can mail the BBC.
But for the editor to consider this a serious point worth broadcasting - well, perhaps someone who is unaware that Burma is an oil and gas producershouldn't be in charge of what purports to be a current affairs program.
We all know why it was chosen, of course. It fits the BBC narrative. Why ruin a perfectly good anti-American sneer for the want of a few facts ?
