...apparently.  Can't say I'd noticed, but Rupert and Tony did.  Well done lads.





Blair 'attacked BBC over Katrina'

Prime Minister Tony Blair believes BBC coverage of Hurricane Katrina is "full of hate" for America, media tycoon Rupert Murdoch has claimed in a speech.

Downing Street has not commented on the speech, made in New York on Saturday.

Mr Murdoch said Mr Blair told him in a private conversation BBC World Service coverage was "full of hate of America and gloating about our troubles".

The BBC said it was committed to full, accurate and impartial coverage and had not received a complaint from Mr Blair.

Mr Murdoch, who owns the Sun, the Times and News of the World newspapers and Sky Television, labelled the BBC a "government-owned thing".

it's true!!
it pisses me off something rotten too.. can i say pisses?

anyway - down in new orleans they had free buses for people to take out of the city.. they evacuated over a million people i believe? and actually faced gunfire as they tried to get people out..

all the bbc does is say 'and america abandoned these people, probably because of the colour of their skin.. they didnt evacuate them.. ' blah blah .. call me stupid (no dont) but isnt the president likely to go past the line just to show he isnt making decisions based on race?

the whole stadium thing was an absolute shambles, they did do a really bad job yes, but for once in my life i agree with tony blair (it's not that i disagree with him often, i usually just dont think about him)

-- end rant --

ps and i repeat..dont call me stupid
