BBC chief slates US media on Iraq
2003-11-26
EFL & BBCias
Greg Dyke, director-general of the BBC, used the award of an International Emmy to round once again on US coverage of the Iraq war — suggesting the American media had become a "cheerleader" for the anti-American moonbats Bush administration.
5, 4, 3, 2, ...
Mr Dick Dyke, receiving the award in New York, told leading broadcasters and media executives: "News organisations should be in the business of balancing their coverage,
(yes, so far, so good)
not banging the drum for one side or the other.
(I knew it couldn’t last long)
This is something which seemed to get lost in American reporting during the war."
He doesn’t spend much time watching American media, eh?
"For any news organisation to act as a cheerleader for government is to undermine your credibility," he added.
Note to Dyke: The terrorists have no formal government... Oh, wait, that’s not what he meant. My bad.
