I find the obsession with the BBC boring, because BBC has
become less and less significant in the big picture of the world,
and that will continue, don't you agree?

no, i don't. the BBC has 150,000,000 listeners worldwide, not counting
its domestic audience, and its TV programs here in the states. it's
not as big as it used to be, but it's still influential. and when it
lies, it gives credence to lies. forcing it to admit its bias, as the
hutton report did, means that the far left, in spite of the BBC's
hiring of al jazeera newscasters, will be called on its lies about the
united states.

the fact you seem reluctant to admit, as a revisionist leftie, is that

Of course, that's the spin a right-wing ****tard like you would put on
it. Yes, he resigned, but never admitted to lying.


so he's an unrepentent liar. oh. by the way. his boss's resigned, too.

as to being right wing, i know you far lefties have a fundamentalist
belief that anyone who doesn't believe that uncle joe stalin was a
great guy is a '****tard', but we liberals believe in freedom, not
socialist paradise like you lefties.\

the executives covered for his lie.

No, they did not. This is another baseless assumption being made by a
right-wing reactionary twit who doesn't even live in the country in
question/

really? then why did his boss's resign? because they were tired of
their jobs?

and that's the end of the story. unless you can show me where the BBC
is lying when it said it lied, you got a problem.

If you can show a BBC statement with the word 'lie' in it?

yeah. in the fact that all the guilty parties no longer work at the
BBC. that's a pretty good indication, oh, great, revisionist leftie
puppet

how many BBC lies in the 'long run'?

the BBC's audience is primarily 3rd world.

They claim their audience is the entire world-- what

all over the world. For example:

"What is important in the States is what type of listener
we're getting," says Mr. Byford.

ahem. let me point out a simple fact:

the BBC does not even broadcast to north america. kinda forgot that in
your pompous bloviating, didnt you?



BBC's Indian SW audience has plummetted.
They're moving rapidly to TV, as will the rest of the
3rd world in a few more years.

what is 'less significant' in a world where the BBC is the leader? and

which had zip to do with the thread at all. the BBC does not use FM on
shortwave. those of us who DO shortwave kinda know that...

dontcha love it when guys who are too stupid to know that the BBC lied
cant even go to dictionary.com and read:

blo·vi·ate

in your rather sorry state, lacking all credibility, your boastfulness

lack thereof...of any aspect of the BBC, shortwave, or international
broadcasting.
