Well I cant agree.

Sure the BBC is free of adverts, but its also free of any content but
political propaganda one way or another.

Not worth watching apart from the odd program that slips through - Rugby
internationals perhaps, or a program about Iron age incest...

What!
David Attenborough and Prof Brian Cox docs are brilliant, just to
mention a few.


David Attenborough is I am afraid nearly as crap as Brian Cox,

Attenborough doesn't know ant better, but Cox does, and he should be
ashamed of himself punting the global warming ********.

If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will
eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such
time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic
and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally
important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for
the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the
truth is the greatest enemy of the State.
