NO BBC REPORTING OF OCTOBER 31st ACTIONS

According to Media Workers against the War (www.mwaw.org) the BBC somehow neglected to report the demonstrations across the country on October 31st. They suggest you email ( info@bbc.co.uk) or call them (08700 100 222) to let them know this is unacceptable.

More important things to report

Like ..... whether the Butler done it.

Thursday's BBC news at 10pm devoted a generous 7 seconds to the London Parliament Sq/Whitehall protest, at which I was fortunate to be present.

The same broadcast on Friday devoted a clearly insufficient 15 MINUTES to the royal shenanigans i.e. half the programme.

Same applies to the BBC's website, where the protest story was buried deep and accompanied by a truly crap photo.

DIY media, like IMC, consistently gives better coverage of such events than the corporates. No surprises there. But since we pay for the BBC and it's audiences are much larger the original posts point is a very valid one.

I've sent off my complaint.

Have you?

The BBC is a NWO military tool don't expect their support. But did the Queen order Burrell to take Diana's belongings, so the Spencers couldn't have it? Is the Queen guilty of theft of the Princesses property?

Maybe it's an abdication of personal responsibility to ignore the fact that there are ways to express disapproval/make your voice heard, even in the mainstream. Viewers' comments are all logged and distributed around the BBC. Many people who work there don't support the attack on Iraq. The more people complain, the more information reaches them, and the more support they get, and the more the hierarchy will have to pay attention...

attack the personalities

I reckon it's a good idea to attack the actual news readers,
not violently, personally by writing them letters asking them are they aware that the news they are reading is NWO/ corporate propaganda, or are they all mind control victims.
they are certainly paid a fortune to read a bunch of lies ..

eh

workers in the BBC may not agree with all that this organization says and does, but they too must examine their own conscience, weigh it against their bank balance and decide whether they can continue to work for such a reactionary, obscurantist, autocratic entity.
The BBC is unique in the world; whereas most state broadcasting networks are merely transmitters, the BBC has established itself a s a cult, a freemasonry, moreover one which presumes to dictate the morals and identity of a nation. The otherwise trivial case of Angus Deayton illustrates this; he was sacked for the most part because he could no longer sit in moral superioroty over the contestants on the show; H.I. G. N. F .Y has long ceased to be a giggle at the headlines, and more a source of moral approbrium...
