It's all too involved to explain to those who just came in, but anyone suspicious that 'Climategate' is real will already know the background.
Suffice to say I was rendered ecstatic to see this first article as it alleges everything DB and I have been bleating about for years with regard to our own National Broadcaster. The bias has been breathtaking! So much in fact that this investigation into it's sister UK broadcaster didn't rate a mention on the news. Wonder why? Too busy shredding papers?

The second link is to their partner in conspiracy, the dear old Guardian. . The last 4 paragraphs say it all about their stance on science and presentation of facts. A reminder that the sole reporter accompanying the 'melting ice' climate scientists stuck fast in Antarctica was from.... the Guardian.
This is their spin on the corruption allegations.

Yep nothing biased about 'dissent vill be verboten!' folks.
Righto, into it Warri, I'm sure you can explain how Rupe's behind it all to impose World domination by rich media bastards or something.
(As opposed to World domination imposed by the Green Technology rich bastards, like Al Gore.)

Earlier this month, the biologist Steve Jones, who reviewed the BBC's science output in 2011, told the Guardian he was concerned that the BBC was still wedded to an idea of "false balance" in presenting climate sceptics alongside reputable scientists.
He said: "This goes to the heart of science reporting – you wouldn't have a homeopath speaking alongside a brain surgeon for balance, as that would be absurd. It's just as absurd to have a climate sceptic for balance against the work of the overwhelming majority of climate scientists."

What is absurd is to denigrate the equally, and in some cases better, qualified scientists who don't agree with their paid for puppet ones to the level of 'homeopaths!'.
The BBC said in 2012 it moved quickly to put many of Jones' recommendations on science reporting into effect, including the appointment of a science editor for the whole of the corporation's output.
But earlier this year in a select committee hearing David Jordan, head of editorial standards, told MPs that the broadcaster had decided not to follow Jones' key recommendations on climate change: "[Jones] made one recommendation that we did not take on board. He said we should regard climate science as settled … we should not hear from dissenting voices on the science."
