It's too bad nobody else has bothered to update the Tweets of Shame page.<br /><br />I hadn't seen Liddle on Start the Week (no time to right now as Thielmann's Dutchman live from Bayreuth is currently blasting through the speakers - it's as much fun as last year), but I did see the C4 woman call him a racist, which was very amusing. Liddle may be a rather nasty piece of work in general, but he was a professional by comparison to today's political activists with bylines, and knows more than all the rest of us put together about just how Leftoid the BBC really is.David Preisernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-42745655043438336732014-07-26T17:59:29.193+01:002014-07-26T17:59:29.193+01:00The kind words are appreciated.

But really only a fraction of people there had any interest, and the majority no longer care about exposing the BBC's bias and holding them to account so much as being a place where they could express their own opinions on certain issues of the day without criticism. I put in a significant amount of effort of the years, and it was difficult to concede defeat. It's a shame, as the blog used to have real attention and effect.

That was only a couple of months ago. They never learn.<br /><br />Rod Liddle is very good on the BBC. If you didn't hear his recent run-in with the BBC on 'Start the Week', it's still available online and well worth listening to:<br />http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0457rmlCraighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08741318067991857821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-25642921957140389822014-07-25T09:17:13.790+01:002014-07-25T09:17:13.790+01:00Craig and Sue I really appreciate your postings an...Craig and Sue I really appreciate your postings and at times like this in Israel/Gaza I am so pleased to think it isn't just me who sees the BBC bias and your analytical taking apart of the BBC pieces. <br /><br />But DavidP you are wrong to think your postings at the Other Place were becoming superfluous.

It's a shame that the Tweets page isn't being updated, as there have been plenty of gems to add. For example, the disgusting Donnison's recent ones essentially explaining that Israel's actions only increase his support for Hamas, and that idiot BBC producer tweeting anti-UKIP venom.<br />I have been checking out your excellent blog from time to time, but locusts generally consume my day before I'm able to think of anything to say.<br /><br />BTW, are you aware of Rod Liddle's recent statements about just how biased the BBC is, and how the place is 90% Lefties?David Preiser (USA)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00055001852090086556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-72549540518728181662014-07-24T16:25:38.700+01:002014-07-24T16:25:38.700+01:00He is indeed, and Beeboids would do well to rememb...He is indeed, and Beeboids would do well to remember that old song about Santa, "He knows if you've been bad or good/So be good for goodness sake".<br /><br />It's wonderful to hear from you, David.

The fact that this idiot tweets his partisan bile even after years of BBC memos and online training courses and Social Media Away Days and public spectacles shows just how prevalent his mindset is there. He felt perfectly comfortable expressing his opinion, because they're all at it, and it simply didn't occur to him there might be a problem. It happens over and over again with these people.<br /><br />Twitter truly is the gift that keeps on giving, and DB is like Santa Claus.David Preisernoreply@blogger.com
