BBC WS - biased?
 
I'm curious... on the BBC World Service report about U.S. job numbers this
morning (1215 UT, 15190 kHz, SIO:434), the reporter failed to mention that
this is the worst economic performance by a U.S. president in over 70 years,
the worst job growth since the administration of Herbert Hoover. Even during
the depression, WW2, Korean War, Cold War, Vietnam War, Watergate, and
Monica-Gate, job growth was never this lousy.

Does anyone think the BBC WS is biased towards the sitting president by not
addressing these facts?

Perhaps the BBC WS of the same opinion and ideology as Dr. N. Gregory
Mankiw, the Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers (appointed by
President Bush and sworn into office on May 29, 2003) that "out-sourcing
American jobs off-shore is good for America." If this is so, why won't the
BBC WS be up-front and tell it's listeners?

Why don't you ask the BBC?

That would be the 'smart' route to take.

And as a 'colonist' you'd probably have much more pull in eliciting an answer
from them.

I don't know about that answer. The BBC needs to check their facts first.

He needs a new one now that these have been "outed."

I recommend "anti-social college kid with no life and a brain to
match." I think it has a nice ring.
