The Cock Bucket

Thanks to @pfig for this one. It’s priceless.

The short version: James Murdoch, son of Rupert, reckons the BBC is unfair competition.

And he does this in the last bastion of wooly liberal Britain, the Grauniad. Of course, the BBC report this nonesense completely objectively and without irony even wheeling out an ex-DG to stand up for them.

I’ll own up. I’m doing work for the BBC right now and a group of people more strenuously concerned about their remit to the people of this country, you’d be very hard pushed to find. In fact, too much so, since they’re not taking enough risks with programming. But that’s another story.

I wonder how this triumph of public relations came about? Did he wake up in the morning thinking: “I feel like a giant cock today. I’m going to put on my cock suit, my cock shoes and my big pink knob-ended hat and make a complete cock of myself in front of an entire nation”?

Needless to say, aside from a few BNP-sympathising expats and loons, the comments are priceless. And what was he thinking bringing Darwin into it? A pathetic attempt to get on the intelligent person’s bandwagon?

If the free market alternative is Fox News, with its prejudice, lies and bias, why shouldn’t we have the BBC? Surely we need non-partisan sources of news to combat the constant stream of far right propaganda spewing from your company?

This article is a horrific mess, and you should be ashamed.

Oh man, Fox news.

Actually James, its your American subsidiary Fox, that ’s provided the biggest advert against commercial news. It allows neo-con rats like Sean Hannity to make unsubstantiated claims about Obama, and our NHS. So you have no grounds on which to claim neutrality. Your organisation is a nationally, regionally, and globally destabilising influence.

Fuck it, just read the comments, all 300 and counting. It’s like  spEak You’re bRanes only in reverse.
