A former BBC employee has blown the whistle on cocaine use among the corporation’s TV and radio producers and star performers.
Sarah Graham told a Home Affairs Select Committee hearing into the cocaine trade, that it is seen as “part of your creative genius or part of your extraordinary personality”.
She says that instead of being reprimanded, those who take the drug are praised for their “off-the-wall” brilliance.
Miss Graham has worked for BBC Radio 5, Children’s BBC and Channel 4’s The Big Breakfast, and says she was offered the drug by a presenter and producer on her first day at work.

somehow It doesn’t suprise me
Same problem in our ‘creative’ centers as well. Drug addicted, besotted, lunatics without education trying to tell the rest of us how we should live and what we should believe
In other news, the sun rose in the east this morning.
“in other news, the sun rose in the east this morning.”
——really... did not see that in the news wasn’t sure. :)
Savage rants about the coke sniffing media all the time...
What a surprise that “journalists” are big druggies. There’s nothing in their “professional” behavior that would tip you off to it.
;-)
The best quote about Cocaine was from Bill Cosby:
“So I asked the guy what was so great about cocaine?”
“He said it ‘intensifies your personality.’”
And I said, “Yeah, but what if you’re an asshole?”
A nice inside view of society’s liberal elite.
Immolating themselves with their own “brilliance.”
do I really have to say it???
Tom Brokaw joked on camera about laying out fine cocaine when NBC’s news ratings improved (I believe the clip dates from the 1980s, it can be heard on one of the “Celebrities at their worst” compilations).
I’ve had my fill of billion dollar marxists like Soros and Gates telling me that I’m not paying enough taxes and how we need to establish socialist programs.
Media PING
So it’s true: many journalists still have a nose for news.
Is this a report from the 1980’s?
People still do cocaine?
Uhhh...is this 1985?
Bizarre.
Roger that
Gays are represented in today’s major media at rates of 10-20 times that of the general population.
You HAD to expect drug use to follow.
Must be at the networks. Local TV folks cannot afford cocaine. They might be able to afford sanka, but thats about it.
They can certainly afford Cuervo. I saw a couple of reporterettes from the local CBS affiliate slamming down agave juice.
You would not believe how many homosexuals are on German TV.
I often tell my wife that if Germans 70 years ago could see what television would become like today - they would have fought MUCH HARDER!
