Why didn't this make the news, then? The "summit" happened last week.

"It was the day that a host of BBC executives and star presenters
admitted what critics have been telling them for years: the BBC is
dominated by trendy, Left-leaning liberals who are biased against
Christianity and in favour of multiculturalism. A leaked account of an
'impartiality summit' called by BBC chairman Michael Grade, is certain
to lead to a new row about the BBC and its reporting on key issues,
especially concerning Muslims and the war on terror."

Several reason.

The main one being that the BBC reflects the views of the majority of people
in the country and also the current government.

What the majority believe isn't news, well, except to Daily Mail
readers...

I run a ten year old SWB Defender County Station Waggon

What's yours?

Certainly not, although given that most of the papers are right-wing
goose-steppers, the beeb being staffed by slipper-wearing bus-loving
gay lesbian muslim-lovers is possibly a good thing as it provides some
balance.

Given that it's mostly local issues that affect our lives, reading
local papers is probably more relevant than the national storytellers,
although it has to be said most of the local rags are a tad dull,
thankfully!

Actually they do, that's why it isn't news.

Just about everybody agrees that the US is currently being run by a bunch of
loony militaristic imperialists who seem to have fallen at the first fence
and also that people should be allowed to practise their religion as they
see fit, as long as it doesn't interfere with anyone else.

ahh - neatly back on topic with a thud.

The 110 is a rather tatty (but servicable) example of the CSW.

The Disco is black.

I also have some 88" bits - not enough to start a project ;)

You won't get a lot of argument there, I'd have thought (though it's
hardly news)..

or there.....

Plus, of course, there are one or two other things in the news.

No ta. There's no such thing as 'news' anyway, only interpretation of
events. "Blair escapes probe over cash for honours" is a headline
story, I reckon.
