They just cannot help themselves being bias that is!
On an item on a new source of gas from shale in the USA they only interviewed an man from Friends of the Earth who was against it as it was still a fossil fuel which wouldn't help stop climate change.
So NO balance was shown as of course the BBC can still not let go of the Global Warming story and still tries to weave in a story if they possbly can.
The only answer is for the duped public to refuse to pay their TV licence fee.
That would make the Guardian reading BBC types sit up and take notice.

# 069 - WAR - More evidence of BBC bias.
Two entries to catch up on last week:-
1. So Hunt MP stated that the BBC is filled with more LibDim and NuLiebour voters than CONservatives.
Well that is a statement of the obvious but it doesn't stop some BBC type indignantly saying it is no ones business how he votes.
He is right of course and Hunt said no different it just that he suggests that not many in the BBC vote CONservative - and that is the obvious truth.
2. The good old Daily Mail on Saturday 18th carries a story that Mark Thompson the BBC's Director General ( on around £800,000 at the last count) admitted recently that the BBC had indeed been nervous about tackling sensitive issues. This admission comes only a few months after he accepted the Corporation had been guilty of a a massive left wing bias . His latest comments made during a speech at the Institute for Government on Thursday night follow a 2007 BBC Trust report which suggested news coverage had sidestepped immigration and Europe.
For years my complaint letters to the BBC where met with solid denials that they were bias and yet now their own boss say they have been.
The trouble is they still ARE but they just don't see it insulated as they are behind their copies of the Guardian!

# 068 - WAR - 6 pm BBC 1 news Friday 10th December.
Another classic piece of BBC 1 bias yesterday on the 6pm news.
The BBC is charged by its Royal Charter not to be bias so when covering major news items, like Climate Change, they really should interview both sides of the argument.
Yesterday they interviewed the Government scientist on the pro side who was allowed to repeat the lie that the temperature is rising when in fact it has gone down in the last few years and to speak on the sceptic's side they had some amateur climate enthusiast.
So no balance there then!
Why does the BBC never interview a sceptic like the journalist Christopher Booker?
The BBC is still desperate to plug climate change whenever they can and still speak as if it is a fact.
Meanwhile the evidence is now clear for those with eyes to see that the whole Climate Change industry is a complete scam.
The bias BBC is going to have some serious egg on its face when the orthodoxy changes and climate change is seen for what it is a green scare story to promote an increase in the green agenda and budget.

# 067 - WAR - Radio 2 news @4pm today.
I'm always amused when the bias BBC shoots itself in the foot!
Lead item on Radio 2 news at 4pm today was a student's reaction to the pending vote in Parliament.
Typically the bias BBC only wheeled out one student to interview, so giving no balance. Then to compound the problem the bias BBC, no doubt following their own PC guidelines, interviewed a girl, who from her accent, was I assume coloured!
The BBC seldom now interviews with the majority indigenous whites?
Well she told us she was rioting 'so LIKE her younger relations could LIKE benefit from LIKE further education LIKE' etc etc!
Clearly this student had been very poorly educated no doubt as a product of our state system.
Hope your foot gets better soon bias BBC!

# 066 - WAR - BBC Radio 2 news 5pm today.
Here is an example of the very subtle way the BBC is bias in its news reporting.
The news on Radio 2 at 5pm lead obviously lead with the Spending Review but had NO extract of George Osbourne's speech ( the main event let's face it!) but did manage an extract from Alan Johnston and choose the most class conscience comment of the lot which was that in his opinion many of the Conservatives sole agenda was an ideological crusade to cut welfare spending.
This is very bias.
Fairness would have had a quote from each and certainly not the most class conscience comment forn Alan Johnston on its own.

# 065 WAR - Horizon BBC 9pm Monday 4th October
David Attenborough headed up this programme, on how we are damaging our oceans, and which covered two main areas - over fishing and increased acidity of the water due to more CO2.
I'd agree with all the points on over fishing and you only have to look at the disasterous EU Common Fishing Policy to see how the EU have mismanaged their waters.
However the EU was NOT even mentioned - now there is a surprise!!
As to more CO2 damaging the oceans, David Attenborough and the BBC should read Ian Plimer's book Heaven and Earth pages 323 to 339 to realise that this is simply NOT happening.
But then again when did the BBC let the facts get in the way of a story to promote the Warmists agenda.
I wonder when the BBC will stop reporting Global Warming as a fact?

# 064 WAR - Money incentives for dieters.
BBC news on Radio 2 at 10 o'clock today had an item that there is a proposal to give cash incentives to fatties and unfit people to diet and take exercise.
The BBC showed bias by of course only interviewing one person who said she would not have gone to the gym with out the incentive.
For balance they should have interview someone who pointed out the absurdity of this suggestion.
So the listening public are subtly left with the impression that this idea might have some value.

# 063 WAR - Blair and Thompson.
My 2 comments below are a tad late as I've just returned from holidaying in France.
1. Blair's interview with Marr was more of an 'Audience with' with soft questions and no tricky follow up answers. Blair was allowed to promote his own agenda and hog the lime light and milk the occasion to promote himself.
2. So Mark Thompson admits the BBC had a left wing bias which in his opinion it no longer has!!!!
Pull the other one Mark - the BBC is INSTITUTIONALLY biased to the left as the many blogs on the subject testify.

# 062 WAR - BBC news.
3 little snippets from yesterday and today.
10 o'clock TV news yesterday evening.
1. The lead story was the 'Heir to Blair's' trip to India. While they interviewed an Indian about the trouble cause from our new restrictions on immigration there was no balance from interviewing working UK people living in India who say India is NOT helpful with their Visa applications. Funnily enough on Jeremy Vine at midday they had just such a person, who made jewellery in Goa, but had to leave India every 6 months to continue to stay there. So the BBC shows its bias by implyng the problem is ours and NOT India's.
2. During a clip of the Chilcot Enquiry General Jackson was shown saying something like ' at the end of the day the Army had to decide whether to carry out the political order or not'. This surely called for a follow up question to somebody as to why the Army didn't say NO to going into Iraq.
But of course the BBC wouldn't dare upset the establishment with such questoning.
Radio 4 5pm news today.
3. At around 5.45pm there was an item about the value of Reporters now we have bloggers and the internet. An Amercan was interview who was very pro 'official' main stream reporters and branded all bloggers as unknown and unreliable.
My God pot and kettle!!
The BBC news output is always bias and they very seldom give balance. As with the above news item there was NO interview with a person pro bloggers.
My opinion is clear - it is through bloggers and the internet that we get near the truth. The BBC in the main just dishes out PC left of centre bias tosh. The BBC is like an extension of the Guardian and Independent which MOST BBC types read.

# 061 WAR - The Coalition.
It is increasingly clear as pointed out in Saturday's Daily Mail that the BBC's news reporting bais has not changed since the formation of the Coalition.
They still appear to hold a light for New Labour bending over backwards to cover their leadership contest in a favourable light and over the recent Mandleson book NEVER asking any serious probing questions and certainly NEVER upsetting any New Labourite with agressive questioning.
No - agressive questioning is left for the Conservatives and now Coalition.
As we know the Coalition faces a very difficult task and it appears the BBC sees it as its job to act as the unofficial opposition highlightening the problems that lie ahead when the cuts really start to bite and NEVER informing the public that the disasterous New Labour project is the reason we are in such a mess.
As Saturday's Daily Mail pointed out in its Leader column:-
Look no further than how Thurday evening's Question Time panel was packed with anti-coalition, pro-public sector voices for an example of this bias.
The Mail applauds some of what the BBC does. But let it never be forgotten that it is the very embodiment of the public sector ethos that state bodies and quangos always need more funding, regardless of whether the money is availableand oblivious to the fact it is the hard-earned wages of the taxpayer that are being spent.
In my opinion there is NO justification for the TV licence in its current form and as a start it should be reduced at the first available opportunity.
