The spokesman said: "That was a slip of the tongue."

Rather looks like they sexed up their case against Blair!

timesink - thought you'd be interested in this little mistake (read bias) by the BBC.

[what's up]

Those bloomin' Brits!

It is fun watching the BBC go from one lie to another.

You have to understand-- liberals are permitted to "sex up" things to suit their ends. Conservatives are not. It's very simple.

[INSENSITIVE GUY]

Trying to pull a clinton by calling it a mistake or an error.NO,I DON'T THINK SO!This was done on purpose!

[CyberAnt]

Wow! This is great! John Gibson raked the BBC guy over the coals yesterday.

[gov_bean_ counter]

Dang those bureaucratic snafus.

[Lexington Green]

The BBC screams that Blair and Bush are LIARS. When caught lying themselves, they report it as "a slip of the tongue". This communist propaganda machine should be shut down as a national security threat.

[Ronin]

Slips of the tongue????

I thought they were called LIES.

I think Andrew Gilligan should be violently sodomized with a plunger handle, then beaten unconscious with a shovel.

OOPS! Sorry, slip of the tongue. Of course, I meant to say that he should be given the benefit of the doubt.

[MizSterious]

And well he should have. That guy is so slimey, I'm surprised he didn't slide out of his chair. One insult to our President after another. Why did Fox even bring him onto the show?

[Timesink]

Thanks Peach! I'll ping it.

This is the nascent Mainstream Media Shenanigans ping list. Please freepmail me to be added or dropped.
Please note this will likely become a high-volume list.
Also feel free to ping me if you come across a thread you would think worthy of the ping list. I can't catch them all!

British understatement.

I've been wanting to jump through the screen and bang that phony BBC reporter over the head.

I can remember when BBC and the New York Times were more believable and reputable than the National Enquirer. My how times change.
