The BBC sucks.

The Guardian has this:

"Tony Blair has denounced the BBC's coverage of Hurricane Katrina as 'full of hatred of America' and 'gloating' at the country's plight, it was reported yesterday.
Blair allegedly made the remarks privately to Rupert Murdoch, chairman and chief executive of News Corporation, which owns the rival Sky News."

There is no doubt the BBC's coverage was over the top with anti American bias.

But in the reading the article you might be struck by something. Rupert Murdoch was speaking at the first Clinton Global Initiative conference in New York. In fact, Murdoch was one of only two media giants to attend. (Time Warner's Dick Parsons was the other)

The left likes to portray Murdoch as some sort of rightwing media Karl Rove, but Murdoch even lunched with Hillary while in New York at News Corp's Midtown headquarters.

I mean, come on. Think about it. Does Superman lunch with Lex Luther? Does Batman lunch with The Joker? Does Spiderman lunch with the Green Goblin?

You get my drift....;-)
