Katty Kay – One Bare-Faced BBC Liar!
I’ve been meaning to compose this post for some time, but this rainy arvo – yeah, Jakarta’s rainy season is coming round again…
===
====================
…has left me with time on my hands as I wait for an evening visitor.
K.K.
If you ever watch that BBC World Channel, you must have heard Ms. Katty Kay, filmed as she struts around, braying the praises of her pay-masters.
Actually, she doesn’t. She extols the BBC, but her fat salary comes from the pockets of the British people, who are forced to fund that next of biased vipers.
=====
=====
The line that grates most harshly in her incantation is the totally dishonest claim that the BBC is the ‘ONLY’ media institution that ‘has never taken sides’ in any war, revolution or whatever.
That was more or less true when the treacherous swine in Broadcasting House infamously declared themselves neutral when brave young Brits were laying down their lives for freedom.
But NEVER?
Every senior BBC mandarin and broadcaster MUST be aware of how their servile bias was exposed, how they very definitely DID ‘take sides’ against Rhodesia.
We’ve published on that episode more than once.
Will the BBC EVER Be Pro-British?
But today we do so again.
===============
The same BBC which cast its charter to the winds by acting as Harold Wilson’s Pravda during the Rhodesian sell-out.
Harold Wilson used the BBC World Service to promulgate false information about Ian Smith. A letter in the PRO from the Rhodesia Ministerial Committee to the Prime Minister advised that Ian Smith should be portrayed as a weak unreliable figure. Note that the BBC’s World Service, although fully financed by the government, is subject to the same “public service” conditions as the Home Services…

….Another letter from the Commonwealth office dated 25th May 1967 refers to a request by the PM to be shown fresh guidance before it was sent to the BBC. The official said; “I am afraid this guidance has gone; in accordance with our usual practice it was given orally and confidentially to the Head of their African Service. It was suggested to the BBC, we should continue as in the past to make Mr Smith appear incapable of making up his own mind. He should be portrayed as evasive, weak and vacillating. Full agreement was reached with the BBC and the guidance has already been reflected in the content of broadcasts.”…-

This campaign went on for two years. A letter from the BBC to the Civil Service asks for permission to discontinue the campaign because of staffing problems. The BBC man in charge, presumably responsible for continuously breaking his obligations under the Royal Charter, was being promoted.
These letters are probably the only official documents available which prove without any doubt that the BBC has been used by the government of the day to broadcast government propaganda. Stop BBC Bias – BBC Charter Review

Never trust the BBC!
They do not serve the people whose money they live off. Their loyalties lie somewhere else.
I would bet a king’s ransom that after that document was made public, they had reliably leftist staff go through all their archives to make sure similar documents exposing their betrayal of their duty to impartiality were carefully collected and shredded, or burned, or otherwise disposed of.

Yes, demand her dismissal, but she is no worse than the rest of them.
Better idea?
Demand the BBC be privatised so we no longer are compelled to pay for their lies and bias.

I was watching the BBC world channel a little while ago and they were talking about how the BBC had been happy to help the war effort in WW2, as of course they should.
However,they declared themselves neutral in the Falklands War. We have to deduce they thought the Nazis were bad but the Argentine, Galtieri’s junta, was not so bad.
Their behaviour in the Rhodesian affair was exactly as you describe, outrageous.
This Kay woman is just ignorant.
Or is it dishonesty.
I think the latter, like all those BBC leftists who use their power to load their talk-shows with invited guests they can trust to broadcast biased propaganda.
