OPEN THREAD...

>> FRIDAY, AUGUST 12, 2011

Well, we have reached Friday and it's been another rollicking week here on Biased BBC with more and more people visiting us and more and more comments appearing! Last night, we had our busiest EVER Question Time liveblog, with up to 300 people on-line at any given moment. A big thank you to all you folks who came along and as ever my sincere appreciation to David Mosque and All Seeing Eye for their fortitude. Thanks to everyone for your continued support and I declare this Open Thread open for business....!

RED ED ON THE COMPLEXITY


BBC keen to give Ed Miliband the prime time slot on Today this morning. 8.10am .Not only did he get the usual soft shuffle interview in which he was allowed to waffle about the "complex" reasons behind the looting riots but then he got to talk further with a special panel the BBC had invited onto the programme. Miliband repeated the inane meme that somehow Bankers are part of the problem. Evidently he has decided there are no votes for him should he robustly deal with the thieving feral scum that constitute part of his core vote in some of these areas. What struck me most is that Miliband has absolutely NOTHING to add to this debate and yet there was the BBC hanging on his every non-word! It's the same as Question Time last night with John "Class Warrior" Prescott utraged about the behavior of...bankers. It's as if Labour, and their broadcasting arm the BBC, live in a parallel universe. The thugs that looted and wrecked our streets did so because the enjoyed it and thought they could get away with it. The complexity is an invention by the Left, propagated by the BBC.

PERRY

I noticed the BBC covered the imminent announcement by Texas GovernorRick Perry that he will be running for the GOP Presidential nomination. Now, I am quite a fan of Perry (along with Palin/Bachmann) but I was surprised to hear the BBC say that his weaknesses are that 1/He is from Texas (home of the evil Bush) and 2/ had once made an alleged comment suggesting Texas might leave the Union. I would have thought the fact he worked for Al Gore back in 1988 was more of a downer. I suppose the BBC see Gore as above associated criticism, I don't. As Obama sinks deeper and deeper in the mire, it should be fun to watch the BBC do their best to assassinate the characters of ALL the GOP candidates. It is obvious the BBC wants to see their hero re-elected and you can be certain that the bais will shine through as we run up to the 2012 elections. Just wait until Palin declares...

LAW AND ORDE...


I know I've been banging on about this but the BBC really is using Sir Hugh Orde to undermine David Cameron's authority. This morning, the BBC's official candidate for next Met Chief, was to the fore in pointing out that Police Chiefs. not politicians, were responsible for the "magnificent" actions in recent nights. In particular, they use him to undermine Theresa May and speculate how she could work with him should he deign to put his hat in the ring for the job. Orde is a great asset to the BBC these days and since he ascended to his perch at ACPO he has been a trenchant critic of the Coalition. The BBC know their own and always look after them.
