I worked for the BBC in the late 70s on Sets for light entertainment an i know the vibe there very well thank you! one thing, do you remember the
News footage of 9/11? yea know! the one were they reported Building 7 had fallen down lol, an it was in the Background still standing! an later when
they sussed it, it was taken off the loop sharpish! the good old BBC what! what! so my point is dont patrinise me when it comes to truthfull coverage
of News from the BBC! OK?
Oh settle down, first of all get your facts straight. It was CNN not BBC that announced that WTC7 was in danger of collapse before it happened, and
they got that information from FDNY, who was "pulling" all of their people from WTC7 at the time when it started to show signs of collapse. Again
though, where on earth did that come from? Why are you just changing the subject so?
I wasn't even working for the BBC in 2001, I was in college. I have no idea why an attack off the cuff about something CNN did has anything to do
with my team's decision that the RAP was not worth our time to continue researching and reporting on.
I have to also question your continued defense of the idea that the media is somehow biased against the RAP when members of the Patriot Movement in
the United States have stated here that they are full of it and so is Turner. What's your angle here mate, why are you defending this so fully.
And don't give me the line you've given everyone else that it is just an interesting story, because it's not, you're taking it from all sides with
no backup here, people don't just do that because it's interesting. I've seen the boys at BP give more ground than you have here.
Edit: Alright you've got me curious too, what's your beef with the BBC? Aside from our pro-union (both of governance and of workers) which we have
been very frank about over the years, what have we done wrong mate? We've pretty well pissed off everyone equally, in fact we make a great point of
it.
