BBC and links with the US gov funds

[vandamme]

The BBC "is institutionally politically biased, certainly in favour of things like the European Union, mass immigration, and a whole other host of ‘politically correct’ ideas that I think it peddles to the public,” UKIP MEP Gerard Batten told RT.

He added that taking this money would expose hypocrisy at the heart of the BBC, because "the EU bans sponsorship of any news and current affairs TV programs across the EU.”

“If the US State Department is going to fund the BBC, that would appear to be in breach of the directive."

This is an interesting video showing the potential funds from the US gov to broadcast into countries that block the broadcasting signals.

What is also interesting is the claim that the BBC has received $230 million from the EU bank, which promotes the EU, something which we are familiar in terms of bias from the BBC!

Good find Van.

I notice the clip shows an awful lip-synced hairy guy with no name saying "..Cuts in the BBC budget are so draconian..." I had a feeling he came from another planet.

Apart from Gerard Batten, it seemed the insinuation was that the BBC 'COULD' become biased. I can understand why Obama's government would be interested in the BBC output as it is, but not so sure any Republicans would value it much.
