Where did I say I was offended? I just think it's a poor choice of words. But hey, he's angry, it's his blog, so at the end of the he can say what he likes, as can I. What I am interested in is trying to understand people's views of the BBC News' coverage of the current situation. From my experience UK viewers (who pay for the BBC so are its customers) calls to the BBC during the Iraq war were split almost equally in saying we're either too pro-western or too pro-iraqi. I'll wager it'll be something similar during this conflict - again, a guess. I think it's critcal that BBC News has the highest journalistic standards but also that it comes out from behind the black gates of Television Centre and actually explains to people what it's doing and try to enter into some sort of a dialogue.

The RAGHEADS MURDERED INNOCENT CHILDREN. Have you heard, out of that purported 1.5 billion, even ONE who deplored the death of these children?

Virtually every post of the editors blog is full of people bitching about things. I don't believe the BBC has an agenda, I just think they're in an impossible situation, and occasionally make mistakes. BBC News's images that are used for "generic" news items could do with a lot of work - For example I'm fed up of seeing this stupid image (<a href="http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/41783000/jpg/_41783934_computerone203.jpg)" rel="nofollow">http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/41783000/jpg/_41783934_computerone203.jpg)</a> used over and over again almost every time an article about hackers, viruses or similar is written...
