BBC CREATES ITS OWN OBAMA SOUNDBITE

Here is a very interesting observation on the BBC's Newsnight programme. It seems that their science correspondent did not think that Obama's speech hit the right note on climate change, and so she cobbled together different bits from different parts of the speech to produce the effect she wanted. Now that's what I call real propaganda!

My complaint is already on its way.

You can view the clip for yourself HERE. The original Obama speech HERE. The Newsnight editor defends his action on the Susan Watts BBC blog HERE (scroll down to comment 33). To add your own complaint (if you are minded to) send it to BBC Complaint Department.

An indepth analysis of the whole Newsnight piece can be found HERE.
