Outrage in the UK: The BBC Plants Hecklers Against Conservatives

As readers of Joobo's wisdom know so well, the BBC, the British Broadcasting Corporation, is one of the "Triad of Journalistic Evil" - which includes CNN in the United States and al-Jazeera in the Middle East. These three "networks" are the focus of making sure, around the world, that the United States is shown to be evil, that the United States is to be considered a terrorist country, that Israel, and not Palestinians, are the true terrorists in the Middle East, and finally that George W. Bush, and not Islamofascists, is the real problem in the alleged war on terrorism.

Now comes the incredulous story that the BBC, the far-left leaning organization which tried to bring down British Prime Minister Tony Blair, actually planted hecklers in campaign crowds of the Conservative Party, running in the elections to be held on May 5 in Britain. Imagine, for a moment, if CNN planted hecklers in the crowd of President Bush, and then used the footage to help John Kerry...the scandal would never end.

Tory fury as BBC sends hecklers to bait Howard

The BBC was last night plunged into a damaging general election row after it admitted equipping three hecklers with microphones and sending them into a campaign meeting addressed by Michael Howard, the Conservative leader.

The Tories have made an official protest after the hecklers, who were given the microphones by producers, were caught at a party event in the North West last week. Guy Black, the party's head of communications, wrote in a letter to Helen Boaden, the BBC's director of news, that the hecklers began shouting slogans that were "distracting and clearly hostile to the Conservative Party".

These included "Michael Howard is a liar", "You can't trust the Tories" and "You can only trust Tony Blair".

Mr Black's strongly-worded letter accused the BBC of staging the event "to generate a false news story and dramatise coverage. . . intended to embarrass or ridicule the leader of the Conservative Party". The letter said that BBC staff were guilty of "serious misconduct". At least one of the hecklers was seen again at a Tory event in the North East, Mr Black added.


Now check out the BBC's horseshit excuse on why they were doing this:

Last night, the BBC claimed that the exercise was part of a "completely legitimate programme about the history and art of political heckling" and said that other parties' meetings were being "observed". However, The Telegraph has established that none of Tony Blair's meetings was infiltrated or disrupted in similar fashion.


Heads rolled at the BBC after it was discovered that one of their reporters, Andrew Gilligan, made up quotes dealing with the crisis leading to the war in Iraq. Heads need to roll again...and the entire BBC leftwing mindset needs to be changed now.
