BBC World Service and US State Department: new partners, new bias?
Date 23/03/2011 12:58  Author webmaster  Hits 720  Language Global
The BBC "is institutionally politically biased, certainly in favour of things like the European Union, mass immigration, and a whole other host of ‘politically correct’ ideas that I think it peddles to the public,” UKIP MEP Gerard Batten told RT.

He added that taking this money would expose hypocrisy at the heart of the BBC, because "the EU bans sponsorship of any news and current affairs TV programs across the EU.” 

“If the US State Department is going to fund the BBC, that would appear to be in breach of the directive."
