The BBC has no leftist bias at all.

Because its relevant in the first case and irrelevant in the second.

Was Floyd racially abused by his attacker?

These girls were

As a teenager, I was taken to various houses and flats above takeaways in the north of England, to be beaten, tortured and raped over 100 times. I was called a “white ****” and “white ****” as they beat me.

Are you saying these arent racist attacks?

did any of these girls have families or friends.
Vague statement is vague. Trusted in what sense? Are they trusted on all new stories or some. Are they trusted to cover stories with "fairness" ?

Edit: Also Highly trusted:cry:. They got a 6.something . Usually these scales have 5 as neutral.
they are trusted to be as biased as every other news source, carefully choosing what to allow comments on and what not to.

you probably can't find a migrant article/video from the bbc that has comments enabled

seems they are pushing the invisible aghanistan war right now, taliban are taking everything apparently but the only footage they ever show is probably stock video.

seems they are desperate to get people to care about afghanistan

Here's a great example:



https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-57618356

Note how the bbc call out the perpetrators ethnicity and that of the victim.



https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-57863698.amp

No mention of their ethnicity, or the victims, despite both articles being almost a carbon copy of each other about sentancing.

Seems that the bbc are prepared to racially endow their articles but only in some instances...

Why is that?
It's really easy. The first case helps to stoke the right type of racial division. That is blacks vs whites were black people are the victims of white oppression. And they need the "white allies" to come save them (but that's a topic for another thread).
The second case is the wrong type of racial division. this is 2021 we can't have white people as the victims. Hence you exclude it from the article and ensure that people are not thinking about race when they are reading the article.

It's all about manipulating the reader to get the right type of thoughts and emotions. News reporting 101

How come then when you blow the air is cold? But if you open your mouth wide and blow, it is warm?

Q=ha(t2-t1)

Blown air (high velocity) has a higher convective heat transfer coefficient (h) than open mouth air (low velocity).

Nose size is analogous to surface area (a). Blood vessels / capillaries are plentiful in the nose. Blood is at core temp.

Therefore, for a given exhalation of breath, a broad nose will remove more heat from a person than a narrow nose.

Finally some good content in this thread. Thanks man. Now I know that fogging up bus windows is actually racist.

As a white man I've certainly become aware of my privilege since learning the nuances of thermodynamics and heat transfer.

If I see anybody fogging up a window I immediately apply a blast of high velocity cold air to nullify such bigotted behaviour. We must always be vigilant. Racism is everywhere (according to the BBC at least).

Except we know that they are white because it’s been widely reported that they are white...

Same with lots of media companies these days, race is mentioned selectively depending on the narrative. The George Floyd arrest had nothing to do with race but it turned into a racial thing simply because the main cop happened to be white and Floyd black.

They mention British Pakistanis here:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-oxfordshire-51467518

Pakistani nationals mentioned here:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-56650674


I don’t really feel the need to find any more examples. You’re right that they don’t mention the skin colour of the victims, if you care so much you could always ask the BBC why they don’t mention the race of the victims.

FTFY. No need to thank me.

Edit: I'm kind of curious, what papers/sites have reported that the victim was white

Why would I thank you? I’m not the one when the weird obsession about race. Perhaps if people didn’t have this obsession then the media wouldn’t pick up on it either?

Also, I took your point as being there can’t be any white victims in current times. not that there can't be white victims in current times on the BBC.

That's a chicken and the egg problem. Are people "obsessed" with race because the media has been pushing it. Or has the media been been pushing it because people are "obsessed " with race.

Also the thank you statement was a joke. Have you not heard that one before?:confused:

Fair enough.

Fair enough.

I think it’s a combination of both. A fair few of the regulars on here appear to be more concerned about the race of rapists and their victims than they are about the actual crimes before committed.

Do you guy's think you are actually achieving anything with all this back and forth? Do you all just keep going till the thread is either closed or moved to SC?

I mean I can understand the SC Crowd who seem to be a bunch of men down the local yuppie bar agreeing with each other, that's nothing new,

Dlockers? do you actually have anything to say or just post and runaway comments with a laugh emoji is all you're able to do? You're better than this c'mon man.

Why does everything have to be about skin colour these days? something negative happens to someone and the first thing we think about before passing judgement is there skin colour, from both sides of the divide...that's just not right!

Why Do we focus on the police in America, where most of the police are white but most of the people in poorer areas committing the crimes and shooting the guns are black?

You habe to admit its strange though that the bbc did not mention the race if the victims once in the British case and there are many many cases yet they refrain from doing so.

Despite the facts that we know that racial motivation is part of the crime.

It's just an example if inherent bias in the reporting standards which confirms the assumption.

Neither Floyd or Derek were foreign nations but both of their ethnicities were citizen in 1 article.
