That's the best you have? From 1944? Can't find anything more up-to-date,
I guess.

I read that website you link to. It seems more like a parody site than a
real one. The fact someone would spend sooo much time trying to portray
the
BBC as inherently evil and biassed, when there are real media
organisations
out there who are actively engaging in screwing with democracy through a
complete lack of objectivity. Doesn't that strike you as odd?

It's almost as if you're not actually angry that they "lie", but because
their "lies" don't gel well with your twisted agenda. Dripping with
hypocrisy.


Er, you missed 'something': the infamous letter
institutionalising atrocity propaganda at the BBC,
to distract attention from the doings of the
Red Army/******s/Judaeo-Bolshevism etc.

http://users.bluecarrots.com/rbisto/BBC/bbclies.html

"We know the methods of rule employed by the Bolshevik
dictator in Russia itself from, for example, the
writing and speeches of the Prime Minister himself
during the last twenty years. We know how the Red Army
behaved in Poland in 1920 and in Finland, Estonia,
Latvia, Galicia and Bessarabia only recently.

We must, therefore, take into account how the Red Army
will certainly behave in when it overruns Central
Europe. Unless precautions are taken, the obviously
inevitable horrors which will result will throw an
undue strain on public opinion in this country.

We cannot reform the Bolsheviks but we can do our
best to save them - and ourselves - from the consequences
of their acts. The disclosures of the past quarter
century will render mere denials unconvincing. The
only alternative to denial is to distract public
attention from the whole subject.

Experience has shown that the best distraction is
atrocity propaganda directed against the enemy ...
your cooperation is therefore earnestly sought to
distract public attention from the doings of the
Red Army by your whole-hearted support of various
charges against the Germans and Japanese which
have been and will be put into circulation by
the Ministry."


Extract from the infamous letter, sent February
29, 1944, to the BBC by the British Ministry of
Information (nice Orwellian touch). Reproduced
from "Allied Wartime Diplomacy", by Edward J.
Rozek
