The BBC is being revealed as the agenda-driven, unaccountable, elitist organization that it is.

NPR better take notice (they won't).

How can anyone treat the BBC seriously now that they have run for months with a constant drumbeat based on a false story that had exactly one source??

I think it was obvious from the time of his suicide that this guy naively leaked to the press for political reasons, got way in over his head when some careless remarks which he may have thought were off the record were blow up out of proportion, and he was revealed as a disloyal employee who had tried to undermine his bosses.

The BBC also got in way over their heads. When their source committed suicide it put them in a very bad light, and deservedly so. I hope they lose their huge government-sponsored tax monopoly. It's billions--far larger than any of the subsidies given to PBS.
