<<All of the issues they raised are all factually inaccurate & of course, you are the only one who is completely right.>> hmmmmm.......if you look back at my postings I never claimed to be right at all. Not once did I state that their reports were factually inaccurate! I simply pointed out that the sources that you quote have other agendas for their dislike of the BBC.....this has to be taken into account also. The coverage of the invasion of Iraq is simply another "beef" to add to the list. For example, Jason Deans..... media.guardian.co.uk Mark Falcoff.....AEI (the mighty tree from whence the PNAC sprouted, enough said!) aei.org Barbera Amiel.... media.guardian.co.uk The others have been discussed in the previous posts. You are the one that's jumping to the conclusion that the BBC is wrong because x, y or z says so. I guess what I'm saying is that sometimes you need to try and see the bigger picture. Not once in your postings have you said why YOU dislike their coverage. I could go do a google on bias at any media organisation and start posting the links here.....what good is that?!?!?!? The BBC is far from faultless, however it is MY OPINION that their coverage of most news stories is as good as you'll get from any media outlet. Again the fact that they're pissing off so many in the hard right camp means they're doing something right. And that my friend is how I see it......uh huh!
