BBC & Blair

Irony piles on irony. A powerful media organisation, with a vested interest in the reduction of the Murdoch empire, the BBC continues to report the Leveson inquiry as if it is a chance for people to explain why they had dealings with this evil empire. Tony Blair was up today. Personally I wonder why you would bother, as the chance of Blair telling the truth is absolutely zero, not just because he has based his 'success' on lies, but because he has so much to hide.

Anyway, the lunchtime report on the BBC was extraordinarily soft on Blair, as is Leveson himself of course, who offered a humble apology to the superstar in his midst after a protester launched a verbal attack on Blair. War criminal is something that nutters often throw around, but it is hard not to see it applying to Tony Blair; there was no substance to vindicate his desire to attack Iraq and we used to concern ourselves about such matters. Blair's subsequent wealth is difficult to understand.

I don't know why the BBC felt the need to be so respectful to Blair, but maybe something is going on behind the scenes. The BBC may want to convince you that a competitor was up to no good, but they seem completely at ease with their cosying up to Blair whilst in office. Strange that, as he really is an evil man.
