BBC gives Land Snatchers march more publicity

This Monday Radio 4's Today programme gave an extended platform for a Countryside Alliance representative whose function was to publicise the march. None of the numerous criticisms of the group were raised and you could almost hear the presenter tugging his forelock.
On the BBC website today there is yet more publicity, including a map of the route.

It appears the BBC prefer to give free publicity to groups that torture animals for "sport", while giving none to those who oppose violence, as in the forthcoming Stop the War March on Sept. 28th which, if we are lucky, will get scant coverage, never mind advance publicity.
Why not register (polite) complaints at the address below, and ask if the anti-war march will enjoy equal publicity.
