BBC 10pm Propaganda?
Yorkie | 18.10.2005 21:36 | Analysis | Anti-militarism
On the 17th and 18th of October 2005 the BBC broadcast a two part feature article that seems to have been umprecedented in informing the public about our RAFs preparedness to deal with terrorist attacks using airliners.
Who set up this exclusive and why?
Dare we question journalistic integrity of the BBC?

The BBC can be influenced, but ONLY by visible protest

Writing or phoning official BBC contact points is like pointing out to Adolf Hitler in 1943 that jews are being killed by the Nazis. They are already fully aware of what they do, and will happily give you their standard denial!!!

BBC Director General taken on in Sheffield

we have now picketed the Royal Television Society Awards, the British Press Awards and the SIDF - all attempts to show that the media propagandists who prop up the state and assault our comrades in the social movements are being taken on. Sheffield was great fun - it's a pity that more Indymedia supporters don't take these issues seriously enough, or attend our protests when we announce them, as we have usually done. Anybody wanting a copy of our broadcast journalism leaflet can email us at contactnfb@tiscali.co.uk . La Lotta Continua!

As if its not enough that our taxes provide corporate welfare for the defence industry, we now have to put up with adverts for BAE on the BBC news.

Stupid Question Really

Of course it fucking is!!! What a stupid question to ask - ALL media outlets are used as propoganda outlets, whether its a reprint of a corporate press release in a newspaper, a new government crackdown terrorism in the BBC, or an announcement of a protest on Indymedia.
ITS ALL PROPAGANDA!!!
I thought this was a Newswire, not a rhetorical question of the week wire!!!
