"a problem of culture within the BBC"

"a problem of culture within the BBC" Message 37 Message 67Bluegenes and Straggler,The BBC's recent activities and coverups seem more fitting for the Catholic church or boy scout association than a trusted media outlet. Sadly, no matter how horrifically repetitive the Catholic church's actions are, there are some people who STILL cling to its failed moral leadership:1. Do you still have the exact same admiration for the BBC as you had before and . . .
2. am I silly for comparing the BBC to the Catholic church?

BBC sex abuse scandal broadens: 9 others investigated after children’s TV host Jimmy Savile accused of abusing underage teens

​

The BBC, one of the world’s largest and most respected broadcasters, is under fire for failing to stop the abuse and for pulling an expose on Savile from TV schedules at the last minute in December. The sex allegations were later aired on the rival ITV network.

​

Entwistle acknowledged there had been a problem of culture within the BBC ... a broader cultural problem that allowed Savile’s behavior to go unchecked.

No - you are just a hate-filled bigot who has no reluctance in using the suffering of abused women and children to further his own agenda.So...how many people have worked at the BBC? How many of them were involved in the cover-up?No answers? No facts? Nothing?
I thought not.Just your usual ignorant bile.

Thanks for the non-hyperventilating reply to my second question Panda. Although my queries were mostly directed at Straggler and BG, it seems you accidentally missed my first question:1. Do you still have the exact same admiration for the BBC as you had before?Looking forward to your always calm, rational and moral response.

It was a calm and honest reply. Then send them a private message instead of posting in the public Coffee House forum. Well...How many people at the BBC were involved in the cover-up?
Without knowing the scope of the problem I would be reluctant to make a judgement.But I see that you don't let your own ignorance get in the way of your knee-jerk spite-filled finger-pointing.
Nothing new to be seen from you. Yes.
Those kinds of honest attributes must appear new and unobtainable to someone like you.

The irony. It burns.

But we know the scope of your problem

Perhaps, but that isn't on-topic. Would you like to try again?:1. Do you still have the exact same admiration for the BBC as you had before and . . .
2. am I silly for comparing the BBC to the Catholic church?

What has the BBC done?
Be specific. What aspects are you comparing?
Be specific.

It seems my original post addresses your questions. Please re-read.I also listed four media websites for your additional perusal. A pity I couldn't find a news source from the trusted BBC, so sorry.

Your opening post contains nothing but rumours, suppositions and conjecture.What has the BBC actually done?
Be specific. That is because you didn't even look.
Home - BBC News
There is something about Savile on their front page every day.
But, I realise that you avoid facts that contradict your views - well, you appear to avoid all facts.Talking of facts...
What has the BBC actually done?
Be specific.Edited by Panda, : No reason given.Edited by Panda, : No reason given.

Yes and yes.

That eliminates the "irony". Yes, exactly the same amount; that is: none at all. No, that's not why you're silly.

I believe he's talking about this, that he quoted:

I believe he's comapring the covering up of kiddy fiddling, which fitting of such organizations as the Catholic Church and Penn State University.It's really not hard to see what Drone is talking about, whether you think he's right or wrong about it. But you've wasted a bunch of posts asking a question that's right in the OP.Did BBC cover up the kiddy sex or not? And is that fitting of a news source like the BBC or something that we're more used to seeing from the Catholic Church?- Oni

Whoops, just found this from the BBC, but, not surprisingly, it doesn't state the BBC's involvement in the abuse:
Jimmy Savile: Number of victims reach 300, police say
Jimmy Savile: Number of victims reaches 300, police say - BBC NewsI suppose until they dig up the deceased Savile and actually convict him with the crimes, it will always be rumours, suppositions and conjecture? (it seems the catholic church got a lot of mileage out of that policy too)Edited by dronester, : added comparison

Aaah...so Dronester is angry about the BBC "pulling an expose on Savile from TV schedules".
Seems an odd thing to rage about.
Maybe he knows something we don't. (HAHAHA - only joking!) And what cover-up did the BBC do? Well, Dronester already 'knows' the answer to that question...
