The Blair Govt. is pulling out the stops, this is huge>> BBC chairman Gavyn Davies has resigned in the wake of Lord Hutton's criticisms of the corporation's reports. He quit after Lord Hutton said the suggestion in BBC reports that the government "sexed up" its dossier on Iraq's weapons with unreliable intelligence was "unfounded". Lord Hutton also criticised "defective" BBC editorial processes over defence correspondent Andrew Gilligan's broadcasts of the claims on the Today programme. In his resignation statement, Mr Davies said no-one at the BBC in the past year had deliberately misled the public, and no one had acted out of malign motivation. "I have been brought up to believe that you cannot choose your own referee, and that the referee's decision is final," he added. But he questioned whether Lord Hutton's "bald conclusions" on the dossier's production could be reconciled with the balance of the inquiry's evidence. And he asked whether those conclusions about the use of sources whose remarks could not be verified, constituted a "threat to the freedom of the press in this country". Culture Secretary Tessa Jowell said Mr Davies had "done the honourable thing" and she would now advertise for his replacement. Prime Minister Tony Blair said the report showed "the allegation that I or anybody else lied to the House or deliberately misled the country by falsifying intelligence of weapons of mass destruction is itself the real lie". __________________ Sounds just like the line from the Bush people now doesn't it???
