It DID mention the immigration finding. <br /><br />Do they read small out-of-the-way blogs? (By the sharp view count spike last night and some of the recent Twitter activity possibly) <br /><br />Or did a wiser head at 'Newsbeat' spot the blatant spinning of his colleague Greg Dawson (on BBC platform after BBC platform) and realise that a damage limitation exercise might be necessary?Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08741318067991857821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-81898215760854133752015-03-13T14:21:53.332+00:002015-03-13T14:21:53.332+00:00More a case of 'surveys, damn surveys and BBC ...More a case of 'surveys, damn surveys and BBC surveys'.<br /><br />Like a BBC debate panel, they seem bent in the construction and execution, and if the results still fail to meet narrative, there is always the control of the footage to tidy up later.<br /><br />Or, Vox Poppers to suit.<br /><br />So yes, they are now very much in the propaganda game, and the censorship aspect is simply another string to the bow.<br /><br />However, in this case, such editorial by omission is pretty blatant.<br /><br />I'll be keen to see how they explain it away.<br /><br />Maybe I should ask?Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11550976834509947355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-90797976618398175742015-03-13T11:55:02.673+00:002015-03-13T11:55:02.673+00:00The sheer brazenness of the BBC is mind-blowing.
