BBC sends hecklers to bait Howard
Another Case of Objective Journalism in UK? - NOT!
It looks like we aren't the only ones having MSM problems. This case with BBC has caught the uber-MSM "Beeb" in the act of sending in hecklers with microphones to generate content for a program covering heckling. Of course they went after the Conservative Party, no word on doing this to the Laborites.
This reminds me of the AP photog. working with the terrs in Iraq. Isn't objective journalism great? It would be nice if it existed. The Chief wouldn't care one way or another WHATEVER point of view a journalism wanted to express - BUT STOP PRETENDING TO BE OBJECTIVE! Let the colors fly - and then let the reader / viewer, etc decide for themselves.
