even you have to admit that their reporting of Gulf War II, and the
fallout from it, was biased.

I was trying real hard not to post. But this is outright laughable.
When you say that the BBC is/was biased, are you taking into account that
pretty much throughout the whole recent war in Iraq a full ONE THIRD of the
*American public* mistakenly believed that WMDs had been found in Iraq? And
that a 22% believed they had actually been used against the British and US
troops?

Given that kind of mass misleading by the American media (who else to
blame?), may I please ask that you tone down your (highly offending to some
of us) accusations? If only because to some of us, the BBC and Lego represent
two of the highest modern achievements of mankind. Way way way higher than
any weapon system that you can think of.

I totally agree. Also, the British government recently employed Lord Hutton to
chair an inquiry into the BBC’s behaviour and came up with a complete whitewash
of a report besmirching the BBC’s good name.
