The BBC really sucks ass.

Discussion in 'Politics & Religion' started by AGS, Jan 2, 2008.

    I have just watched the BBC 10 O'clock News (Flagship UK News program 2200 hrs BBC1, the most watched news program daily) and also Newsnight (an in depth look at news that starts at 2235 hrs on BBC2, just after the 10 O'Clock News finishes) and there was quite a bit about the Iowa caucuses.

    At least 10 minutes of coverage and not a single mention of Ron Paul, not even on the BBC website with candidates etc.

    The only 4 Repubs mentioned were Shit Romney, Insane McCain, Prick Hukabee and Adolf Gooliani. All pro-war scumbags. :eek:

    I hope Mr Paul does well the next couple of weeks because these controlled MSM outlets will find it a lot harder to ignore him then.

    It's a big sham mate.

    They did take the time to post a graph, I am not entirely sure how correct this is but guerilla might be able to shed some light on it:

    Paul is polling higher than Giuliani in Iowa and higher than Thompson in New Hampshire. IIRC, he's tied with Huckabee in New Hampshire, and in some polls, in a 3 way tie for 3rd place in Iowa with McCain, Giuliani and Thompson.

    A 3rd place finish in Iowa will be a major victory for Paul.

    hah, i can't wait till they see the results of this. it'll just be a moment of silence, they'll probably look away for a bit and think of something else.

    it reminds me so much of the jocks at my old high school. you clearly out bench them, out curl them, out do them at everything and all they can do is look away and try to not think of it because of the simple fact that you're not a jock.

    we're in a league of our own gentlemen, let them squabble about what they will. they'll look back on their mistakes in the future and feel sorry for their narrow minded foolishness.

    Oh btw lads the Beeb (BBC) is behind Huckabee :)o) for the Repubs by the looks of it.

    On the Democrap side they seem to be sitting on the fence between Clinton :)o :eek:) and Obama :)o)

    I have been watching the BBC for over 30 years now, it's pretty easy to see how controlled they are and their intentions.

    lol ron paul.......... WAKE UP he does'nt have a chance in hell, dont get your hopes up guys and kiss your revolution good bye. The sooner, the less painful it'l be for you.

    Im afraid, America isn't ready for a president who is honest and all for liberty. Maybe in a few decades.

    That's interesting AGS, because every time I am overseas and BBC is the only English language channel on the tube, I have found their coverage of world events to be ~ 2000 times better than anything we get here in the USA.

    It's not as bad as the likes of FOCKS News ("We distort, You comply") but it's pretty bad.

    The actual corporation as a whole is excellent but sadly it is still very controlled. It's no different to the majority of MSM at the end of the day mate. :(

    I think Al Jazeera English is one of the best news agencies in the world.

    They have fantastic coverage from everywhere, and some really top notch journalists.

    Sent in. :D

    Oh look at the BBC Have Your Say website:

    Who will come out on top in Iowa caucus?

    Then look for READERS RECOMMENDED and read the comment with the most recommendations from someone called DonAspartame Rumsfeld, NYC, United States. :)

    Our political system is a joke! Might as well call the US a kingdom rather than a republic. People are being dumbed down every single minute and kept under control economically. People are too busy trying to survive and work 2-3 jobs just to make ends meat, while the establishment is sucking this country dry! You see they are betting that by creating threats and economic pressures people will have no choice but to give in and give up, and by the looks of it it seems to be working. Today we have less freedoms and liberties, people are less vocal, people are less healthy, less educated and more likely to be broke. Welcome to the new America.
