BBC and Katrina


According to The Business and other newspapers on Sunday Tony Blair has re-opened the government's long-standing row about BBC bias by describing the corporation's coverage of the aftermath of the havoc caused to New Orleans by Hurricane Katrina as being "full of hatred of America".
.
Of course, the malice harboured by the BBC towards the US, and Bush in particular, is nothing new and the “take” of the media in relation to Katrina was explored on the blog eureferendum earlier this month.
.
Also recomended is the account in USS Neverdock. For myself, and indeed others I know well, I'm still recovering from the shock of agreeing with the British Prime Minister for the second time in eight years.
