Let's study further what I don't want over here:

BBC News endorsement of illegal immigrants rights protestors
|
Quote:
Matt Frei’s diary on the subject was bad enough.
In Immigrants find strength in numbers, one can read the following endorsement of illegal immigrants rights protestors:Anywhere else and you might have expected to see vast numbers of police.
[Image of protestors in Los Angeles, the caption of which is: “The protesters' slogans are inclusive and non-confrontational”]
But not here and not with these people.
It is downtown Los Angeles and once again thousands of Latinos have marched, in peace, to claim the right for illegal immigrants to stay here.
…
They do not want confrontation. Instead they want to influence politicians. The protestors marched “in peace” (hitting one counter-demonstrator on the head doing so) and “do not want confrontation”, and their slogans are “inclusive and non-confrontational”. How lovely.Santa Ana in Orange County is a more conservative place. Hispanics marched here as well but their numbers were in the hundreds, not thousands. “A more conservative place”? Hispanics are right to be afraid of those conservative types; to which lengths could they go in order to impede protestors?Bravely, some might say foolishly, one woman stepped up to confront them. It happened right in front of us.
…
When the woman had taken on everyone in sight the crowd duly booed her and moved off. She was “duly” booed off — she got her comeuppance!
Of course, the puff piece also includes an example of those poor victims of the legal system, immigrants themselves:It is drawing people like Freddie and Maria. Freddie lives here legally but Maria, his wife, does not.
They fear she will be deported at any time. She dreads separation from her husband and her two daughters.
They never leave the state of California, believing that crossing state lines puts them at risk of exposure.
They hardly go out. Freddie admits it is no way to live. She could be deported at anytime and dreads separation from her two daughters and her husband, who “admits” that “it is no way to live”, all this because she has no rights as an illegal immigrant — darn American legal system!
As Peter Lanteri, director of New York’s chapter of the Minutemen, a volunteer border watch group, says: “Illegal is illegal, and they break our laws to come here”. Tell that to the BBC.

BBC News attempts to pass Palestinian militant deaths off as civilian deaths
|
Quote:
In 'Israel to step up Gaza shelling', one can read the following:She was the 16th Palestinian to die in Israeli air and artillery attacks on Gaza in the past four days. A sentence much like the following (from memory) was removed from the article:Israel says it will step up Gaza shelling despite the deaths of 16 Palestinians in the past four days. The bias by omission is nothing less than outraging: BBC News wishes to have the reader believe that the 16 Palestinians killed were civilians, quite obviously, or it would state that of those 16 killed, 13 were militants:I feel sorry for those who have to pay for this “news” service.

Or how about this?
But of course, the BBC is a quality BIAS!:

I dunno. Too many people share the same believe about how messed up this news org is. I mean, what other news org makes the news about howscrewed up they are all the time? I don't understand how you can pay for a service like this. If I lived in the UK, I'd probably be hammering my Representatives about cleaning them up and getting them back on track.
Just my 2 cents.

PS. How many posts do you want on the subject? I can keep posting all day about their mess ups or opinions, or whatever. Try that even with CNN - you can't! It doesn't exist to this degree!
