The Latest BBC Controversy

[David L]

BBC News reports that Madonna has performed a gig in Rio de Janeiro, apparently attended by over 1 million people, describing her as "The Queen of Pop".

Nah. That's Lady Gaga nowadays isn't it?

Besides, the gig was free, which the ever-vigilantly accurate BBC somehow forgot to mention.

Queen of pop? Suzi Q

BBC apologises to Nigel Farage for calling his language 'inflammatory'

[Slim]

They used the phrase "customary inflammatory language"; straight out of the BBC left-leaning liberal groupthink.

[Slim]

Ah, it was the loathsome Geeta Guru-Murthy - sister of the left-wing activist pretend journalist Krishnan Guru-Murthy.  I guess this is what happens when you prioritise skin colour over talent or ability.

Winding up the right and calling out Farage. Wonderful institution!

Winding up the right and calling out Farage. Wonderful institution!

In bad faith.  And we're paying for it.  That's not acceptable.

[David L]

Winding up the right and calling out Farage. Wonderful institution!

The thing that winds the BBC up most is that he's right. They continue to ensure that before long they'll have to stop being reliant on the TV tax.
Keep going, idiots. Keep going

Guess who's appearing on BBC QT tomorrow evening?  Guess they enjoy being wound up!

Guess who's appearing on BBC QT tomorrow evening?  Guess they enjoy being wound up!

Like every week now, Fiona Bruce will trigger more folk than whoever is on the panel because she's such an abysmal host.

The full panel for the record is:

Damian Hinds (Tories)
Wes Streeting (Labour)
Nigel Farage (representing Reform UK)
Piers Morgan (Broadcaster)
Bishop of Dover (Church of England)

Of course, that last organisation is the most corrupt and most malevolent out of all that lot by some distance.

That is no way to talk about Dover.

Oh I like visiting Dover, I always bring back fond memories to go with the three points.

From the BBC sport website a few minutes ago. The BBC representing a success, in this case Switzerland topping the group, with an image of a black player. Nothing wrong with that at all, but here's a prediction. Later this evening they'll publish an image to represent a defeat or failure, and it will be a white player.

Do Scotland have any black footballers? Adams perhaps who didn't play tonight. And the interview was with Robertson. Do you think they would have got him to blacken up for the photo had they won? 😂

[Slim]

It's a fair point. Let's see what they do when England lose.
