According to the mainstream news media we were all born yesterday. Its been the end of the world for thousands of years, and when a major even unfolds suddenly its time to re-evalute the idea of the end of times.

I don't know what it is about the media but they have become so utterly pointless and useless.

Any American that wants to learn about what is happening in America, ie. news, watches the BBC. American news is hardly news. It's fear mongering, propagandist, bull shit.

Fuck CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, and FOX in the neck.

Americans, if you want to find out what is really transpiring in the world and in the US, turn your TV off, and use the BBC or some other world publication for your current events. THE BBC has just as much news about the United States as CNN does. The internet is swiftly becoming the last source of pure information we have. Is it any wonder why the United States congress is passing legislation right now that will limit your access to sites that it does not approve of? Do your part to defend your fucking freedoms. Educate yourselves. The mainstream news is as corrupt as the government it draws attention away from with this kind of ridiculous "Reporting" with religious overtones. For god's sake people,

WAKE THE FUCK UP!

Nostradamus. Now someone even try to interpret what the hell he was saying and how many times he was wrong, and the leeway he left for events happening.

The french he wrote in is confusing due to the fact that no 'official' french written language existied at that time, many events he described never happend and when they did, they never happened on the exact date he predicted them to happen. Believing in Nostradamus is like believing in newspaper horoscopes - you read into it what you think apllies to yourself.

News in America is nothing more than a marketable commodity. If it can be sold, they'll print/broadcast it.

American news merely panders to the ignorance/beliefs of the American public.

As America is one of the most religous countries in the world it is hardly surprising that it's "News" contains rediculous items such as the ones lampooned in this segment of the Daily Show.

It was in the newspaper here (Belgium) a while back that American news is usually produced by the governement, which then sells their newsflashes at low cost to the news stations. The stations are happy about this because it saves them a lot of money, and the governement is happy because they reach a lot of people in a relatively cheap way.
even though I have never been to the U.S. myself, from what I hear and see I would have to agree with darthmaximillian.

Main stream news is always shifty, the BBC quite good just i would like to say that althought the news is no where as rediculas as the US news, it is basiclly ran by the government, so they tend to leave out certian parts which is kinda anoying, but as darth maximillian was saying yes the internet is the last true free place, more people need to realise this as if the governments around the world continue they will destroy freedom over the net too! People need to wise up and actually take the power back from the corporations, before it is too late!!

News companies are owned by corporations who wont show something if it puts them in a bad light and seeing as though most high end coprorate fatcats pander to the government, the news will never be totally un-biased. Even the BBC are slightly biased on some stories although they usually do a good job when it comes to documentaries. The main reason for this is the program makers do all the work for themselves and then sell the programme to the BBC to air, which usually means that no-one with a special interest in a story can interfere at ground level and change the story to suit them. The news of the future will depend on the internet and people like us who leave comments to find out what is really going on around the world. If they shut down a site for reporting a news story they dont like, we start another. They cant censor the whole of the internet or there would be no point to even having it. It would just become another medium for idiots to believe whatever they are told.

Granted, American media is biased...both ways. The New York Times and (my personal favorite) Newsweek are two of the biggest critics of the Bush administration...rivaling the BBC. Do you really believe that the BBC is without any bias....are you fucking kidding me? The only reason you see them as "unbiased" is because they are saying what you wanna hear.

The BBC are required by contract to remain impartial on all issues, including showing favourtism towards any particular viewpoint. If they don't follow the strict guidelines in regards to their non-entertainment programming, then public funding of the network would be cut entirely.

During their coverage of LIVE 8, the BBC producers switched to the TV presenters in the studio whenever a video asking for donations from viewers was played on the screens.

As ridiculous as it seems, the BBC couldn't show any of this footage because it falls under the contract agreement with the public which states they cannot push a particular agenda, whether charitable or political.

To compare US networks/publications owned by the likes of Time/Warner, News Corp. and General Electric to the BBC is nonsensical. Almost every news outlet in America is privately owned by a few individuals (Rupert Murdoch) or huge conglomerates. The BBC is funded from top to bottom by the British public....they own it, and employees have to show total impartiality with their reporting and to demonstrate zero bias. It's as simple as that!


I'm repeating myself, but you've probably got the gist.

Porridge...for such an unbiased network, the BBC sure does have a lot of claims of bias against them...from around the world. Repeat all you want man.

Porridge, you seem like a reasonably intelligent fellow...so I implore you to think outside the box.

NO BIAS BECAUSE THEY ARE REQUIRED BY CONTRACT....c'mon man, you're smarter than that. Who exactly decides what is "biased" and what is "fair and balanced"......ponder...for just a moment. That's a pretty fucking relevant question...no?

Say (for a moment) that certain figures do not outright criticize certain countries and/or cultures or belief systems...they still have the power to chose what stories air and which ones don't, what information makes it in to each story..and what information doesn't....and this is just playing devils advocate.

But it just so happens that the bias is far to often blatant.

BBC criticized the United States for "violating the Geneva convention" by showing pictures of everybodies favorite despot Saddam Hussein...then showed pictures of dead British soldiers against the wishes of their families.

A rather large anti-terrorism rally in Iraq. Thousands gather in the street....not even mentioned on the BBC.
One of the largest of Saddams infamous mass graves found...no mention from the BBC.
BBC denied publishing a letter calling for Bush to be hung...then later when served a heaping dish of proof pudding claimed "it must have slipped through the cracks".
The BBC war coverage has been criticized by one of their own embedded journalist in the middle east. A little controversy when that internal memo leaked out.

There is much MUCH more.....but you've probably got the gist.

So what you're saying is, the BBC lean towards the left-wing agenda and fail to provide sufficient coverage of certain events which may contradict their own particular viewpoint? Okay


During the 1980s, the BBC were accused by the left of slanted reporting which was beneficial for the Thatcher government. Today, they're constantly being attacked by large sections of the right-wing Murdoch press as a liberal organization.

All three major political parties (Labour, Conservative, Liberal) are in total agreement that the BBC aren't in any way biased and everything should be done to preserve that without the help of crass commercialism, and the only way to achieve this is through public funding, instead of corporate ownership as seen in the USA.

Say whatever you want about them...the BBC's news coverage is under contract to remain impartial on all issues. I've never seen any of their employees, whether it's the news reporters or anchors editorialize the way American newspeople do. Watch 1 hour of BBC News 24, then compare their coverage to the likes of CNN, MSNBC or FOX and you'll notice a huge difference in approach.

If the BBC violated any any of the set guidelines, there would be imminent hearings which would almost certainly result in the end of their funding.



JUST A REMINDER:

"During their coverage of LIVE 8, the BBC producers switched to the TV presenters in the studio whenever a video asking for donations from viewers was played on the screens.

As ridiculous as it seems, the BBC couldn't show any of this footage because it falls under the contract agreement with the public which states they cannot push a particular agenda, whether charitable or political."




"One of the largest of Saddams infamous mass graves found...no mention from the BBC."


Sorry, but I reckon you're talking bollocks on this one. There's no way the Beeb didn't cover the mass graves in Iraq in great detail. I distictly remember their 24 Hour channel spending at least 20 minutes every hour with their reporter examining the bones and clothing of the dead. It even dominated most of Channel 4 News evening broadcast....and they definately lean to the left with their coverage.


"A rather large anti-terrorism rally in Iraq. Thousands gather in the street....not even mentioned on the BBC."


Neither did the likes of ITV, Channel 4, ABC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, FOX NEWS and REUTERS.....What's your point?


"The BBC war coverage has been criticized by one of their own embedded journalist in the middle east. A little controversy when that internal memo leaked out"


Who was the journalist?



If the BBC are so obviously biased and have a clear political agenda, then which news outlet out there is superior in terms of accurate investigative reporting and factual programming? I genuinely want to know because whovever you've got in mind, they must be fucking amazing.

Kinda my point porridgegun...they're all biased. And no....no "bollocks" about the mass grave (one of the many)...this particular event took place in July of 2003....and there was no coverage by the BBC....none.

Porridge, we can sit here and go back and forth with whatever little tid-bits of information that we've gathered through the years (the ones that weren't smoked away anyway)....but fuck man....I don't have time for it. It's sensless bickering that will (I'm sure) at no point bring us any closer to a common understanding...and isn't that the main goal here?

Remember that Bill O'Reilly says on a fairly regular basis that he is attacked from both sides.....would you consider FOX news to be fair and balanced? I don't think either of us believe that.

My agenda Porridge is not to prove that I'm right and you're wrong...it's not to strike a blow for the conservatives (as I my self am not a conservative)...my goal is to give you another perspective. to prove that there is always more than meets the eye...especially if you don't look.

P.S. The reporters name was Paul Adams. If you want more info (quotes, ect. just ask)

"...this particular event took place in July of 2003....and there was no coverage by the BBC....none."


Yep, that's about right, and yep, it's still complete bollocks. I watched the coverage of the uncovered mass graves live on the BBC (as I did on all channels) and was kinda surprised they spent as much time as they did on the grislier aspects. It headlined the evening news (again, on all channels), and was disturbing. You could clearly make out childrens clothing among the remains. If you have definate proof the Beeb didn't feature any coverage, go ahead and put up a link....otherwise, I'm going with my lying eyes.

Sorry, but I'm 100% right on this.


I don't really need another perspective on the subject because I've already accepted most of your points, which were fairly obvious anyway. Yes, the BBC are not totally transparent in their reporting. Yes, they've failed on many occasions in the past to provide sufficient coverage of news stories and events....and YES there is always more than meets the eye. What I'm saying is that the BBC are arguably the best news organiztion in the world when it comes to televised news coverage, reporting and investigative journalism.

Despite some obvious flaws, I would take the BBC's non-entertainment programming ahead of anything currently out there. In fact, whenever I watch the likes of Newsnight with Jeremy Paxman or Panorama, it actually makes me proud to be British because I know for a fact other countries don't get this level of depth from their mainstream news outlets.

Again, If you've found a better source for the news that would give someone like me a better perspective on world events, go ahead and provide some examples....I'm genuinely curious.

____________________________________

Okay, that's twice I've asked for at least one example. I take it you're not gonna provide an alternative source of news reporting then? Fair enough.


Oh wait, how about Fox News (which I watched regularly for 2 years), The Wall Street Journal, and Newsweek. Those are your alternative news sources to the BBC...are they not?

Cheers for the non-submitted suggestions, but I'm sticking with Channel 4, BBC, ITV, The Independent (U.K), and The New Yorker and various current affairs websites & political blogs from the States. I wouldn't touch the mainstream news media in America with a shitty stick. Just a personal choice.

See, how difficult was that?




tommythecat86: "I think you've missed the point entirely porridge. My overall contention was that putting your faith in one media results in limited growth in perspective. Too bad they don't teach you that on the BBC."


^ See above for more than one media.

Given that you didn't ask me to provide examples of other news sources, I never felt the urgent need to divert from your main contention; that the BBC are biased in their reporting and have ignored stories and world events in the past which may have gone against their viewpoint. I called one of your charges against the network "bollocks" because I watched the coverage live on BBC News 24 and later that evening on Newsnight.

Btw, you still haven't provided a shred of evidence (article, media study) which supports your claim that the BBC ignored the uncovering of mass graves in Iraq. I wonder why that is...?




tommythecat86: Resorting to the good ol' "if it doesn't fit your view...it must be a lie". I tremble before the searing logic of your fiery intellect.

I was gonna respond to that comment (although I kinda did above), but I honestly can't be arsed right now...Hey, maybe next week.

Listen guy, it's about looking at things from more than one perspective. It's about looking at things from ALL perspectives. It's about letting the information guide your opinion rather than your opinion guiding your information...know what I mean.

VIVA LA (R)EVOLUTION!!!!
Porridge, you seem like a fairly intelligent person and also quite witty I might add (a few of your shots at me made me giggle)... so I implore you to think about the way you think! I'm no conservative my man...so if this is about striking a blow for your respective party...you're fighting the wrong fight.

P.S. I'm fairly certain that the info on the BBC mass grave was in a small, half page article in Newsweek directly following the incident (though it has been a while).

Just for the novelty of it, I'll work my way from bottom to top this time...


tommythecat86: "I'm fairly certain that the info on the BBC mass grave was in a small, half page article in Newsweek directly following the incident (though it has been a while)."


Could it in fact be that Newsweek (your personal favorite) made a mistake in writing the article in the first place? Seeing as you're a dedicated reader of the magazine, I guess you're already aware they've been caught with their pants down on more than one occasion in the past, due to sloppy reporting, and have issued statements of apology for these mistakes?

This is the last time I'm gonna type this, but I can tell you right now that I'm 100% certain of watching live coverage of the mass graves on the BBC.

What's my respective political party affiliation (of which I have none) got to do with anything? I'm talking about truth and accuracy, not idealogical difference of opinion. If anything, that's what I'm striking a blow for...


...But then again, I'm not even trying to do that.



tommythecat86: "Listen guy, it's about looking at things from more than one perspective. It's about looking at things from ALL perspectives. It's about letting the information guide your opinion rather than your opinion guiding your information...know what I mean."



ANOTHER REMINDER:

"Oh wait, how about Fox News (which I watched regularly for 2 years), The Wall Street Journal, and Newsweek. Those are your alternative news sources to the BBC...are they not?"

"Cheers for the non-submitted suggestions, but I'm sticking with Channel 4, BBC, ITV, The Independent (U.K), and The New Yorker and various current affairs websites & political blogs from the States. I wouldn't touch the mainstream news media in America with a shitty stick. Just a personal choice."



If you've got a problem with people like me refusing to read the likes of Newsweek, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, The New York Times, or that I stopped watching Fox News, just as they were about to enter the network's golden era of fearless news reporting (Carl Cameron), journalistic integrity (Bill Kristol, Fred Barnes, Brit Hume), non-propagandist commentary (Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, John Gibson, Neil Cavuto), or light-hearted morning talk, which under no circumstance whatsoever, viciously attack opponent's of the Republican agenda?......then I'm fucking well pleased.






Need to stop there because I'm currently thinking about the way I think...

"even on the bombs israel sent little girls signed on it.. and little boys in libanon got the message!"

Yeah I saw that too. Sad :/ It's time to stop pointing fingers. To just.. STOP

"fucking jews i hate them.. if hitler won we wouldnt have this hypocritical bullshit and assholes around the world... we would have justice and order..!"

Uhm.. You know Jon Stewart would be coming out of a incinerator of hitler won right? Im preeeeeeeeetty sure he's Jewish by heritage. He's just not that hung up about it.
Besides Hitler was an insane freak that put people in concentration camp indefenitely without trial, jury or evidence. Then alot of them commited suicide in big shower rooms. A madman that bombed his own reichstag.


My point is. I dont agree with your racism/discrimination against religion.

Actually, I havent actually figured out if Jewish is a religion or a race. I mean you can convert... I presumed it's both.
