"The BBC treated America with scorn and derision and gave it 'no moral weight.'"
Simon Walters/TN (Oct 23rd, 2006)
For years, despite adamant denials, the BBC has been accused of having a "left-leaning" bias, particularly discriminating against Christians.
Now, the Daily Mail reports that "a leaked account of an 'impartiality summit' called by BBC chairman Michael Grade, is certain to lead to a new row about the BBC and its reporting on key issues, especially concerning Muslims and the war on terror."

It reveals, says reporter Simon Walters, that executives would let the Bible be thrown into a dustbin on a TV comedy show, but not the Koran, and that they would broadcast an interview with Osama Bin Laden if given the opportunity.
According to the report, "at the secret meeting in London last month... BBC executives admitted the corporation is dominated by homosexuals and people from ethnic minorities, deliberately promotes multiculturalism, is anti-American, anti-countryside and more sensitive to the feelings of Muslims than Christians."
Washington correspondent Justin Webb is quoted as saying the BBC treated America with scorn and derision, and gave it 'no moral weight.' While former BBC business editor Jeff Randall is said to have noted that the BBC was full of intellectuals who "would rather steal from a poor box than stand to attention during God Save The King."
