BBC World News are at it again

[deputydawg]

The BBC consider that the belief of some that politics is in their genes is worthy news for the world to digest. I think politicians simply have diarrhea in their Jeans. Can you tell I am bored this morning ?

Many years ago there was a saying - "those that can do, those that cannot teach"!

Historically in the UK MP's always served their time in industry and then used the aquired skills in political roles. Now I think the above phrase can be directed at the large majority of politicians.

Might be interesting to know what 'it' is that the BCC are doing again. Please.

I dont know about DD, but I get fed up (to put it politely) with the BBC news generally some time ago. They have so many news programmes, comments programmes, magazines programmes etc. Instead of just telling you what the news is, they they talk about it among themselves, ask a friend, ask a so called expert, ask the public and his dog - over and over again until you have lost track of what actually happened. The last straw for me was a few days ago when the PM programme was all about the proposals about regulation of the press, and would you believe the following News at Six not only covered the same subject in detail , but actually repeated the same interviews. I switched off after 20 minutes or so , with the impression that as far as Aunty B was concerned, nothing else had happened in the UK, let alone the rest of the World.

There is only one news channel worth watching - Aljazeera.

The presenters are all world reknowed former reporters, the reporters are all very experienced, knowledgable and unbiased and the presentation is always first class.

Good old Aunty still has a place in society, somewhere, but when they continue to make c**k ups as they made the other day on an article about the Dark Sides financial problems and they showed a film of Arasta you got to wonder about what and who the editors are.

Once universally revered and trusted for the truth, accuracy, and impartiality of it's broadcasts, over the years, it has become PC, politically biased, and much of what is believes to be newsworthy is nothing less than trivia. Opportunities to report on meaningful happenings are either missed or perhaps even shunned to meet their own agenda, whatever madcap aim that might be. Does anyone ever look at their quiz of the week which is supposed to be a test of a reader's ability to stay abreast of current affairs ?

The Evan Davis interview with George Osbourne on Radio 4 Today program this morning is worth a listen.
Evan cuts Georgie boy no slack at all.
