If these “zionist influences” pervade the media and the establishment at large Rob, then how come the appeal was screened on ITV and channels 4 and 5? And would I be right in thinking that everything you said about the BBC for not screening the appeal applies to Sky also?

Anyway, how about this for impartial reporting:

‘THE BBC won’t screen a charity appeal for bomb-torn Gaza’s children in case it is accused of pro-Palestinian bias.The uproar is as loud as it is justified.
This appeal is not for Hamas terrorists, it is for terribly wounded civilians.
The Beeb is so desperate to avoid offending anyone that it ends up offending EVERYONE - just as it did over Jonathan Ross and Russell Brand. Humiliatingly, they caved in. It was too late then - and it will be too late again when they capitulate on Gaza.’
Trevor Kavanagh (Political Editor of The Sun) in The Sun on 26.01.2009

He doesn’t mention Sky….I wonder why not!

And the following is what Kavanagh said in The Sun on 10.07.2006:

‘The liberal media’s anti-Semitism is hard-wired. The BBC, for instance, is invariably pro-Arab and hostile to all things Israel.’

Kavanagh - the Sun, that is - attacks the BBC for not screening the appeal, but on the same day The Sun also published the following article about Sky’s decision not to run the appeal:

‘SKY News announced today that it was joining the BBC in refusing to broadcast an emergency appeal for Gaza.
The broadcaster said in a statement it had informed the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC), an umbrella organisation for 13 humanitarian aid agencies, of its decision.
John Ryley, head of Sky News, said: “The conflict in Gaza forms part of one of the most challenging and contentious stories for any news organisation to cover.”‘

No attack there then…..I wonder why not.

Please refer to the links below to unravel the reason for BBC Director Mark Thompson’s decision of not allowing Gaza Charity Appeal. (A point to note is that Mark Thompson’s wife is an active jew)

It is rather ironic that the BBC will ask viewers to vote on which overpaid celebrity can dance the best, skate the best, sing the best, and cook the best, but when it comes to helping starving and mutilated children they look the other way, no doubt under pain of death from the Zionist influences that pervade within the media and the establishment at large. The public will judge the BBC by this decision, and to anyone who knows the full facts surrounding Israel, the Gaza strip, the UK Governments participation in the history of the area since WW2, this decision will come as no surprise at all.
