Worth 10 in scrabble ?

That isn’t strictly correct wissie. Some people have no TV or radio. Only books and newspapers. Some don’t want to know the in and outs of BLM and Jordan.

Very few as she was seen holding a magnifying glass Sorry James, just joking

I still can’t believe the lack of coverage the BBC are giving to the potentially largest US Presidential Bribery & Corruption scandal ever. The Bidens have accumulated over $50m with no underlying business rationale. Banks dealing with their multiple layer transfers through multiple shell and nominee entities have filed over 150 SARS (suspicious activity reports) and still the FBI, DOJ and mainstream media refuse to act or report or have any investigative curiosity. It will be seen as one of biggest derelictions of duties and shows of bias for the BBC ever.

And before you start… I’m not a right wing Trump supporter just a middle of the road Joe who yearns for fairness and not different standards applied.

The beatings will stop when morale improves.

Who also benefited from hindsight!

What people claimed to have seen during an enquiry doesn’t equal what they did, said or even thought at the time.

He was excluded by the BBC years earlier for reasons totally unrelated to Savile, so that piece of journalism trying to construct a non existent linkage was worthy of the Sun.

For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally.

For the love of God, I don't know whether to laugh at you or cry for you, I think I will take the middle road and cry with laughter.

Thanks for being ever risible

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

Is he the point? The BBC knew and no amount of dissembling and prevarication can alter the fact.

Once again you are not reading your own links. Read the very first paragraph. The staff said they knew. Later to the enquiry! They didn’t though report it to management through “fear”. Ass covering springs to mind! So the BBC did not know. Some of their staff claim they knew, which is very different.

What that required is what has happened. Which is to overhaul the reporting procedure to ensure no-one has any fear of reporting , or has any excuse not to.

This idea that the BBC threw a corporate blanket over Savile because they were in awe of him might be a popularly believed myth, but myth it is.

Many thought him creepy and weird but that his good works supplanted any negative vibes we felt. I don’t the BBC management were any different.

People who forgive or defend the Savile cover-up are as guilty as he was. It was well known in the BBC what he was doing. That nobody stood up and saved the abused children is beyond comprehension. It appears that lessons aren't, and haven't been, learnt as now Huw the Edwards incident is being downplayed by the BBC.

I'm not necessarily picking on the BBC, but every corporation does it. The police service have countless cover-ups on their books, as do local councils, and social services. Even the NHS. These are all funded by the public, which is reason for the outrage.

Systematically dragged down by the lawmakers

Who said your replies upset me? Most of them make me laugh, reading inconsequential bombast fabricated by pompous people often does.
