    The Beeb is not as far to the left as Fox is to the right. People's Weekly World is maybe that far to the left.
    Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

        I'll give you the Guardian, but not the Beeb. It's not our fault the truth favors the left.

                      I'd call the BBC center-left, which means it's prolly center-right in England. My impression is that it's a lot less biased than most news organizations out there.

                      The Guardian is another beast entirely (hardcore leftwing anti-american rag). I still read it occasionally, just to see if anything's changed.

                        BBC is centre-left, and against Labour. It's quite Lib Dem really.

                          As they still refer to President Bush, rather than war criminal Bush, they have a certain pro-Bush bias.

                            yup those battles. Glad to see the Beeb finally got it.

                            wonder where they get this though
                            "The hunt, which is in its seventh day, has so far reportedly led to the death of up to 90 Taleban fighters"

                            when AP quotes a named local official as saying 124 fighters. but i'll admit thats a quibble.

                                What's the point?

                                Probably they killed another 34 during two days, or got a more precise bodycount?
