The BBC does not deserve its public service privileges
The time has come to strip the BBC of its status as a public service broadcaster. A programme broadcast on 5 October 2005 called 'Little Kinsey' manifested such a distortion of its source material that we can no longer depend upon the integrity of the BBC's factual programmes.

Genuinely pleased that someone else has had the temerity to highlight the obfuscation of truth (generally) which has steadily become the hallmark of the BBC (and other areas of the British MSM) in recent years.
You might be pleased to see the same message being taken up in an article entitled: Torturing the Truth - The BBC, Guantanamo and the legacy of Ed Murrow (published by the TCS Daily site just this morning) and available via my site.
There is a job to do here to make in reads into the British mainstream media generally if we cherish truth. Anyone wanting a paper on what could be done can get it by emailing me via my site. I am presently in discussion with others about a funds for this new project. I would further be pleased to talk to Civitas about it.
Well done for this new report.
