BBC straight up lying and trying to revise history!

What about the amount of propaganda that wingsoverscotland spews out on a daily basis. :D

Ah but Wigs over Scotland is a veritable bastion of truth in Journalism, an Island of honesty in a mire of misinformation.
They would never ever in a million years lie by saying someone had used fake figures in a news report, then the person had in fact used the Scottish Governments own figures! (just not the outdated projection figures that made the story WOS and the SNP wanted, as opposed to the actual "after the fact" figures that showed the real amounts).
 
Personally I don't understand how someone can mistake ISIS for President Assad.
Unless he heard someone saying something and didn't bother to fact check it.
 
Fairly massive mistake to make if it was a mistake to be honest.

Aye, but probably the sort of mistake that normally wouldn't be noticed and is quite understandable given the recent situation and news about ISIS etc.

It would be interesting to know what the notes he was reading from said, what the next thing to be covered was, and what he heard over the earphones as he was talking :)

My take is that the BBC's reporting on Syria has been very poor since the very start initially painting Assad as the only bad guy in town and the rebels were in no way islamic extremists, Assad was the only side using chemical weapons (even the UN if I remember correctly were saying at the time there was evidence rebels were already using chemical weapons). Their lack of reporting on the wider issues of the refugee flow into the EU tended to look more like social engineering than just factual reporting as well. I note they have went a bit quiet on that front recently with all the security issues, sex enslavement and rape in the German reception centres even before the terrorists attacks.

All very poor. Usually I would defend the BBC as being a better quality of news outlet, but recently they've slipped a fair bit to the same sort of level of Fox News.

Is Wings Over Scotland biased? Obviously.

Are you forced to pay for Wings Over Scotland? No.

What does Wings Over Scotland have to do with this story other than them being the ones to report it? Nothing.

Seven posts before Salmond was mentioned. What a surprise.

Indeed. They just can't help themselves.

Ah the resident unionist troll moderator. Lowering the tone as usual. Your post has nothing to do with the story. Must try harder.

:confused::o

Your desperation to paint the BBC in a bad light is palpable. I'm embarrassed for you :o.

Clearly it was just a mistake... unless you can demonstrate the BBC are presenting lies as fact across its coverage. You know to have lied he has to have intentionally tried to deceive his audience, right? Can you show that's the case, rather than it merely being a mistake? It's quite an accusation to accuse one of the most respected broadcasters in British history of being a liar...

Edit :: I wonder if Jocky McJock Alex Salmond has ever misspoken. I'm sure he has, given he's human. Shall I dig those up and pretend they're lies?

This has nothing to do with Scotland, the SNP, Alex Salmond or anything else to do with Scottish Independence. You guys need to get a grip and stop hijacking threads. A moderator involved as well. Pretty poor show.

The only reason you ever post in these sections of the forums is to call people unionists and talk about how everything that originates from London is pure evil, so let's not pretend you didn't want this.

Posting stuff in a public discussion forum sort of means that you lose control of the direction of where the thread goes. Sorry that not everyone has the same political beliefs as you do.
