omg....

 

I certainly don't believe the BBC is 100% accruate in all it's reporting......but it is so "government controlled" that greg dyke took the government to independant enquiry and finally to court over the legitimacy of the war in Iraq....find me one other news company in the world that has that kinda balls...and i'll start being a lil' more interested in their reports

 

It was not quite like that really.. it was not really the 'legitamcy'

An emotional Mr Dyke told BBC staff at their central London headquarters: "I don't want to go. But if in the end you screw up you have to go."

The Hutton Inquiry was a British judicial inquiry chaired by Lord Hutton, appointed by the British government to investigate the death of a government weapons expert, Dr. David Kelly. The inquiry opened in August 2003 and reported on January 28, 2004. Its terms of reference were to "urgently [...] conduct an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the death of Dr Kelly".

In his report, Hutton began by saying that he was "satisfied that Dr Kelly took his own life". He then concluded that the British Broadcasting Corporation's allegations that the government had knowingly "sexed up" a report into Iraq's weapons of mass destruction — the "September Dossier" — were unfounded. The inquiry's findings prompted the immediate resignation of the BBC's chairman, Gavyn Davies, its Director General (chief executive) Greg Dyke, and the journalist at the centre of the allegations, Andrew Gilligan. Lord Hutton retired as a Law Lord following the report's publication.

man, if that ain't questioning legitamacy (or honesty, if yer prefer)....i dunno wot is....

my point wasn't that the BBC were right or wrong with it's allegations, the point is that as a media broadcaster, supposedly under governmental control, they had the balls to make their suspicions and allegations public

 

So, the BBC is not that accuarate, I am hearing? Somebody got murdered trying to get the Beeb to be more accurate?

I guess my first assumption about the beeb was right.

 

Well, i'm certainly saying that the BBC is not 100% accurate...i've yet to find a media source that is

no, a man commited suicide because the government made a scapegoat of him to cover the blunder that was the conception of the UK's roll in the Iraq war....the BBC got slightly miffed about this...and challenged the govt directly.

I don't think you have enough information about the BBC to make any kind of informed decision on them to be honest

 

The second article seems to be helpful. But, as in the USA's OWN response, why did it take so long?

This one makes me laugh, though.

My dh and I donated $200.00 to the Red Cross (to be matched by my dh's employer to $400.00) JAPAN could only afford 1000 times what ONE single middle class American Family could take out of their own bank account? LOL!

I guess I shouldn't complain. I am glad the other countries are helping. That asswipe Bush better accept all the donations, too.

 

You could be right. I'll admit to this, and you admit you don't have enough information on New Orleans or the Hurricane situation to make an informed descion. OK? THat sounds fair. Then, will we be even.

 

The BBC makes hundreds of 'errors' and 'assumptions' [everybody does].. If they retracted half the things they said and did not get 'off the hook' with a brilliant PR machine' then yeah i would think the BBC did have some balls.. They have balls wrapped in expensive lawyers and years of experiance getting themselves 'off the hook' and making profound 'excuses'... I like the BBC by the way, just 'it' irritates me sometimes.

Why are you re-writing history ?.

 

Ah, now the Brits are fighting amongts themselves.....the plot thickens.....

 

You just gotta look in the right places to make up your mind.. Their is more info about the BBC [out there] than any other media outlet in the world.

 

He started it, miss... honest.

 

good comedys arl bbc .

 

Fair enough..apart from you "I didn't vote bush, i'm not to blame" and "why isn't anyone helping us?" i've seen very lil' from you worth debating anyway

 

yes mathew, it was an horrendous and inacurate summary of the whole thing.....but i never claimed the bbc had 100% accuracy, and neither do i

 

This is how conspiracys start...
