• Laying it in with a trowel

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  Nick Robinson as usual decides to cover a major story from a Labour supportive angle: "Dressed in a dark suit and sombre tie, his voice deeper and more gravelly than usual - suggesting hed had even less sleep than usual - and with damp eyes occasionally glistening in the camera lights, Gordon Brown sought to limit ...

• The BBC go all "Kevin the Teenager" this morning

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  One piece on the BBC today programme this morning just before 08:00 had the odd echo of Harry Enfields Kevin the Teenager as it pointed out just how unfair it was that The Sun was using Mrs Janes story to maximise embarrassment to Gordon Brown. I gasped at their cheek when they said this as I dont remember any similar ...

• "apparently"?

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  The BBC are still in full defend Gordon Brown mode over The Sun story about his misspelling of Jacqui Janess name. The BBC head up their piece with the words: "Gordon Brown apologises to a mother after apparently misspelling the name of her dead soldier son in a letter. " Take a look at the top of the from The Sun ...

• If its an anti-Brown story then the BBC lead with the defence

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  ARRSE alerted me this morning to the story in The Sun about Gordon Browns scribbled and poorly spelt letter to the parents of a dead soldier. Do read The Suns article and ARRSEs take on the story; there seems to be very little respect for Gordon Brown amongst the military, I wonder why. Meanwhile the BBC lead ...

• Free money

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  Stephanie Flanders on Today programme stated that the government had created money via QE. What no costs to this, no problems at all?

• Its all in the emphasis

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  Compare and contrast: Sky News reports that: "Tory MP Nadine Dorries has been paid an undisclosed amount of compensation by ex-Gordon Brown adviser Damian McBride." BBC News reports that: "Tory MP Nadine Dorries says she has been paid undisclosed damages by former Downing Street spin doctor Damien McBride ...

• Labour and immigration (even more revelations)

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  Following the David Teather revelations, The Mail reports that: "Labour censored a hugely controversial report on immigration to remove details of its possible links to organised crime, street fights and begging, it emerged last night. ... yesterday the row took a twist when it emerged that key passages which ...

• "mass immigration under Labour was not just a cock up but also a conspiracy"

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  This is one of the most incredible and maybe political landscape changing stories I have reported since I started this blog. The Telegraph report that: "The huge increases in migrants over the last decade were partly due to a politically motivated attempt by ministers to radically change the country and "rub the ...

• A good day to bury bad news?

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  Surely only a cynic would think that the furore over the Nick Griffin invitation onto Question Time would have anything to do with the news released today (but presumably known about in draft terms by the Labour government for some time) that the UK GDP contracted by 0.4% between July and September meaning the country ...

• The BNP and Question Time

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  Well every other commentator and pundit is having their say, so I suppose I should too. The BNP has some odious views but it is a legitimate political party which achieved a large vote at the last EU elections and if the Green Party are allowed a place on Question Time then so should they. The problem here is ...

• BBC impartiality: the guidelines and the reality

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  These are the BBCs impartiality guidelines, and I will return to them again soon, and a fine read they make. brentours provides a handy translation... Heres an extract: "Impartiality Guidelines Impartiality lies at the heart of the BBCs commitment to its audiences. Reality Bites This is why all our political ...

• Going easy on a Labour recession

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  In a similar vein to this recently, the BBC are trying to reassure us that despite borrowing being the highest ever, it was less than predicted. The BBC keep looking to minimise worries over this recession but oddly during the "Tory Recessions" I dont remember the BBC looking for any signs of Green Shoots at all. ...

• Labours friends in the EU

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  Tory Bear tells the truth about Labours friends in the EU but somehow I dont think this will divert the Labour party or their friends in the BBC from attacking the "nasty party". "TB is getting sick to the back teeth of Labour, and their stooges, attempting to create scandal around who the tories sit with in the ...

• Will this news make the BBC be less biased against the Conservative party or more aggressive against them?

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  It is hard to know which way the BBC will swing after Jeremy Hunt told the Financial Times that the BBC was "out of touch with the hard times the rest of the electorate is going through". The shadow culture secretary said that the BBCs structure had "failed" and added that the Tories in government would have a "very ...

• A difference in emphasis on the BBC (part 2)

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  Last week the BBC reported very quietly on their science and technology pages that "For the last 11 years we have not observed any increase in global temperatures. And our climate models did not forecast it, even though man-made carbon dioxide, the gas thought to be responsible for warming our planet, has ...

• A difference in emphasis on the BBC (part 1)

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  All day yesterday the BBC were reassuring the public that the "rate of increase in unemployment had slowed". Oddly during the "Tory Recessions" I dont remember the BBC looking for any signs of Green Shoots and reporting them as headline news. Rather it was all ceaseless misery and depression; a solemn intoning of the ...

• Labour sleaze

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  The Times report that: "A multi-millionaire ally of Gordon Brown pretended that a small flat occupied by one of his employees was his main home so he could claim £38,000 in expenses from the Lords. Lord Paul, one of Labour’s biggest donors and a friend of the prime minister, has admitted he never even slept in ...

• A tough weekend

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  David Cameron and his team will have a tough weekend (and beyond) to cope with. First the Irish were bullied into voting YES on the Lisbon Treaty, I make that 1:1 shouldnt there now be a decider? This will allow the BBC to try and open up as many splits as they can during the Conservative Party Conference; the ...

• Pound down and the BBC cant report it

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 148
  Sterling has been dropping ever since Mervyn Kings appearance before the Select Committee this morning, how convenient that the BBC charting of exchange rates seems to have stopped working. After all the BBC cant allow the proles to be upset whilst their lord and master is making his great courageous speech this ...
