Survey time
Blogads is doing a short survey of blog readers. I would appreciate it muchly if you went along and took the survey. From: Michele.
Comments are off for this postBBC bias? Why would you ever think that?
Now that the BBC has gotten their pound of flesh for the next 11 years, they don’t seem to bother to even feign impartiality.
Listeners to Radio 4 yesterday morning may well have choked on their cornflakes at an exhibition of apparent Labour partiality from Today presenter Jim Naughtie.Pressing Ed Balls – Gordon Brown’s henchman and soon-to-be Labour MP - on whether Brown will be moved to the Foreign Office in a post-election reshuffle, Naughtie inquired: “If we win the election, does Brown want to remain Chancellor?”
The ex-Guardian hack quickly corrected himself, but it must have been music to Tessa Jowell’s ears: hours later, the Culture Secretary confirmed that the BBC’s charter would be renewed for another decade at the end of next year.
Surely Naughtie should get a ticking off for such a blatant bout of anti-everyone else prejudice?

The job responsibilities for the Vice President, CMT Dukes of Hazzard Institute are:watch The Dukes of Hazzard every weeknight on CMT;
know the words to The Dukes of Hazzard theme song, “Good Ol’ Boys,” written and

be passionate about The Dukes of Hazzard on CMT;
make appearances at special events such as Dukesfest 2005 in Bristol, Tenn., (June 4-5, 2005).
They’re perfectly serious about this. Here’s the Institute, in Atlanta, Georgia:
