The 7/7 attacks: the BBC backslides
It’s back to terrorist-whitewashing business as usual at the BBC. The perpetrators of the 7/7 attacks are no longer “terrorists.” They’re just “bombers.”
Biased BBC has a round-up of BBC watchdogs. Harry’s Place has the lowdown on BBC’s editorial scrubbing; also here. Meryl Yourish keeps track here and here.
Smash notes:
When I was in the Sandbox, some of my British counterparts told me that several Royal Navy ships had stopped showing BBC News broadcasts to their crews, in favor of U.S. outlets like FOX and CNN.
Watching the BBC was deemed “bad for morale.”
