NAME ONE THING DAVID CAMERON DIDN’T BREAK : The BBC is on the front foot today after accusations over its handling of language. Or more specifically, how it directs its public faces to talk.
The denial of top down censorship of news staff comes at a welcome time, as the publicly funded broadcaster is under fire for sanctioning one of its presenters for suggesting someone who says racist things is a racist.
“It’s well known white, British neo-colonialists are the experts on racism,” a BBC source told LCD Views, “people who aren’t white don’t need to worry themselves about it. The racism is well in hand. And its well known that since David Cameron’s administration jammed the BBC hierarchy with right thinking Tory place people that the public are more correctly informed.”
The reassurance comes at a crucial time, especially as the focus of so much snowflake handwringing, Donald Trump, appears to have finally gone too far.
“There is no suggestion that we will cover Donald Trump’s standard performance review in anything other than a robust way,” the source confirmed, “just like we will cover the focus of his standard performance review, that being an alleged attempt to conduct a perfectly normal diplomatic discussion with Ukraine, in any way that isn’t completely impartial.”
The source also has some words for anyone who might wish to register complaints over the editorial line the BBC news outlets now take on such trivial matters as Brexit.
“That’s where people are going wrong,” the source admonished, “it’s not news nowadays but ‘news’, and that’s an important difference.
