British media goes too far

The BBC admitted today that they provided hecklers with microphones and sent them to a political rally for Conservative Party leader Michael Howard.

The BBC claimed that the exercise was part of a "completely legitimate programme about the history and art of political heckling" and said that other parties' meetings were being "observed".
However, The Telegraph established that none of Tony Blair's meetings were infiltrated or disrupted in a any way.

A Conservative Party spokesperson, in a letter to the BBC, accused the news organization of staging the event "to generate a false news story and dramatise coverage. . . intended to embarrass or ridicule the leader of the Conservative Party".

It's clear that the BBC brass wanted a news story of Howard being heckled, so they manufactured the episode. Those on the Right have long-believed that the BBC is not a vaild news organization, unable to remove its deep political bias from its news coverage.

This complete disregard for journalistic integrity proves the point.

If the 2008 Republican presidential primary were held today, whom would you support if the candidates are:
George Allen
Jeb Bush
Bill Frist
Newt Gingrich
Rudy Giuliani
Chuck Hagel
John McCain
Bill Owens
George Pataki
Condoleezza Rice
Mitt Romney
Rick Santorum
