I found BBCAmerica, broadcast on the DirecTV system, to be EXTREMELY biased against the war. Stick with the Fox News Channel for the truth!

I got a lot of my 2000 election news from the BBC because we were living in Singapore. Several times a day I was on the verge of flinging our short-wave radio off our 12th story balcony because of their lies and distortions.

I used to listen to BBC in the morning at 5AM as I drove to work. One week they had a segment each day on the Haj and how awful it would be for the US to start the war during Haj. One young man expressed the view that if he died in during Haj (in Saudi Arabia), he would be a martyr, and he seemed to like that idea.

In reality, the only way he would get killed in a war in Saudi Arabia during Haj, would be from an attack by Saddam retaliating against Saudi Arabia for cooperating with the United States.

During the late sixties and early seventies two out of every three graduate recruits to the Beeb had either been members of their university socialist or communist party societies. These people are now in charge at the Beeb. Their views may have changed somewhat since then but the days of Lord Reith and strict adherence to the facts went out the window long ago.
