The BBC Can’t Admit the Obvious. By David Strom at HotAir.
The Australian Broadcasting Corporation insists that the Bondi Beach terrorist attack had nothing to do with religion.
Not to be outdone, the British Broadcasting Corporation says, “Hold My Beer,” and refuses to admit that the Intifada(s) were all about killing Jews. … (During the first and second Intifadas, about 1200 Jews were killed in various terrorist attacks, including suicide bombings at a disco and an attack during a Passover Seder in a hotel that killed 30.) …
Obscuring the inconvenient truth:
The institutional bias is so deeply embedded that even when it is caught lying, it can’t bring itself to correct the record. Even when it gets slapped upside the head and is forced to correct the record, they can only bear to admit that “some say” the truth, while others disagree. …
“Some say that the Earth is round,” but others disagree. While true in the most minimal sense, one statement reflects reality, and the other is obviously wrong. You can’t put them on the same plane unless you are trying to obscure the truth.
