#1 Melanie Phillips calls it the "Bent Broadcasting Corporation"
A certain nuclear-mad prophet at LGF (not myself, however) called it "Belsen Broadcasting Corporation" which I think is rather harsh since the Beeb only incites and facilitates mass murder rather than actually committing it.

#2 From Rantburg TV News, July 4 2006:

"....according to Secretary of Defense Atomic Conspiracy, 'Our action at the BBC headquarters last night was part of a completely legitimate armed forces video production dramatizing the effects of a miniaturized neutron warhead on a defined point target.'
Dr. Conspiracy added that other parties are being "observed" but there were no reports of nuclear explosions at the CBC or CNN. Rantburg TV has been unable to contact The Independent and Al Jazeerah is reportedly off the air, however."

#3 At least they aren't rigging explosive charges to pickup-truck petrol tanks. Or using fake documents to try to influence an election. Or...

#4 Do us a favor kill the BBC. This hive of unelected 5th columnists should be burnt to the ground as the threat to world peace and democracy it is.

#5 How soon before they hire Bill Moyers to give "an accurate view of America"?

#7 The BBC is just getting ready for privatization and acquisition by George Soros. Then George can compete with Rupert Murdock without having to hire new administrators or establish new policy, cutting down the disruption often experienced with new ownership. George should have enough money to pick up the previous government funding, well, at least for a while.

#8 Grising Shereling2932 - You being sarcastic or not? Because, that makes a lot of sense to me. They are auditioning for their new Soros-MoveOn editorial board. :-/

#9 Bizarre as this may sound, the french are actually doing us a favor. Hold the flames, I know I know. But see, they DID convict Soros on insider trading and so far that conviction has stuck. I'm not sure what sort of forgiviness it'd buy for France, but sticking George Soros into the cell next to Carlos has some appeal to it. Or how about, in the cell with Carlos.

#10 Silentbrick - as wonderful as that mental image is, the Phrogs first have to get their hands on Georgie-Porgie.

He's got enough money to be able to live only in countries that won't extradite him to Phrogistan. (I'm not sure, but I don't think that includes here. :-D)

#11 When asked for commentary, Republic of Rantburg's Assistant Director for Intelligence, COunterintelligence operations simply smiled and refused comment other than "The BBC is really showing what fools they are to inject themselves falsely onto one side of the political debate". As he was walking way the words "agents provocateur", "successful initial misson" and "privitized defunded and thrown away" were overheard.

#12 given enough payout to Jacques et al, no doubt these charges against M. Soros could be reviewed. They appear too harsh
