# 154 - WAR - Economic figures and the BBC.

So our economy grew by 0.6% between July and September instead of the previous estimate of 0.5%.

However listening to Radio 4's Today programme you would never have thought so as they concentrated on how badly our economy was doing.

The BBC doesn't like reporting facts which get in the way of their agenda  preferring to report their opinions and interviewing people who support these. The BBC likes portraying the Coalition's 'cuts' as not working.

The trouble is if the BBC was to report honestly they would have to show and explain why this country is in for a tough decade and that if anything the Coalition is not being tough enough.

However that would never do as it would not allow the BBC to portray the mainly Tory government as uncaring capitalists.
