Asking for hauners is cowardly. One at a time and I'll be fine.

Most sensible comment on the fucking page.

They've got ex Scottish and English internationals Andy Nicol and Jeremy Guscott. Why the f**k does a politician need to be there?

Absolutely. I remember when Sportscene was on a Saturday night they had David Mellor on it, I just about smashed the telly up.

Yes free, to follow our own path.

Free to make our own mistakes and free to recify them.

Feel free to laugh though.

I doubt you or I will notice any appreciable difference. The politicians will love it though.

Whose stupid idea was it to book a politician to analyse the rugby? There's no bias here, just a bit of common sense. I couldn't care less what Salmond - or any other politician of any hue - has to say about the egg chasing.

I couldn't agree more. Please feel free to bookmark this though for Boris and Dave in the summer, just for a bit of fairness

I love Russia Today, I normally have it on as you get the news that the liberal left wing fannies in the BBC don't want us to know about.

I especially like the Keiser Report.

The BBC also take a massive bung from the EU which is why its reporting of what goes on there is fucking biased as well. I reckon someone is also giving them a bung to spew out lies about global warming too. And no doubt the poovery must also be bunging them huge amounts of wedge so they can take over Saturday night TV.

You know, normally, I wouldnt agree with Reynard on his paranoia, but he does have a point about the poovery. The "pink pound" in action?

From politics to homophobia.

Starring John Barrowman BBC1 Saturday at 6pm.

You should put that idea to the Beeb, it might make you rich instead of a "right on" lefty fanny.

I meant to mention this a while ago, but during the BBC's coverage of that huge lottery roll-over in the US they had a piece that showed the obvious positives that winning the lottery offers and the negatives that can often come with it. It was all very predictable, with the negatives involving stories of how winning large sums had torn families apart and then showcasing people such as Michael Carroll as being grade-A bellpieces. But then at the end if this negatives section they shoehorned in the story of the Weir family (winners of Europe's largest lottery jackpot) who chose to donate £1 million of their winnings to the SNP, as if this was some sort of affront to humanity, or Middle-England, as they call it.

The Weirs will be more affronted that fat Alex blew it all trying to phone Jeremy Hunt to sing the praises of News Corp in his role as chief Murdoch lobbyist (northern branch)

Even with the mediums such as the BBC at their diposal, I am STILL waiting to hear a good case for unionism?

There isn't one

You can talk a lot of sense when you put your mind to it.

The BBC corrupt you say?

Obviously you wont be quoting any of their unionist scare stories then eh.

I find this a bit confusing. The BBC may appear to be liberal but they're definityely not left wing, imo. I would say they're not even liberal anymore, the majority of what comes out of the BBC is centrist because the BBC is beholden to the views of the Queen and by extension her UK government, and UK politics is overwhelmingly (underwhelmingly?) centrist at the moment.

I agree though, RT is the only news channel worth watching, CrossTalk is particularly good.

Also, more on BBC conflicts of interest (corruption) in this article from Media Lens.

I'd say you were wrong.

RT is pretty decent in general. I tend to watch it because it will report on the EU and what's going on there whereas the BBC tends not to highlight it nearly as much. It's got it's own agenda like most news vessels of course, but I'm increasingly fed up with auntie. Some of the other non BBC news outfits can also be decent at times but the BBC is "handy" and in a pretty strong position.

I wouldn't say the BBC were particularly friendly to this current UK government either. Not that they should be of course.

Well I don't really need to as there are plenty of other folk that are picking them up on that.I'm not a Scottish nationalist politically so there are plenty of them about that can do the job better than I ever will.

The BBC is definitely not impartial in its political agenda.

It's a sad state of affairs when it takes the mouthpiece Tv station of the Russian Government to bring the horrendous bias of BBC Scotland into the wider public domain. That said, some excellent documentaries and does offer good perspective on international issues outwith the usual western spin.

Nice to see on Reporting Scotland last night Jackie Bird and the drummer from Deacon Blue in a bright red blouse and tie ensemble. Dougie looked great!!! Nae subtle cues in polling week.........
