Is The Bbc Controlling Your Mind ?

[Khandro]

In his new book;
'Brainwashing Britain?: How and why the BBC controls your mind'

David Sedgwick (Author) Asserts that, 'the people of Britain are under attack. We are being brainwashed. We are being brainwashed completely, ceaselessly and cynically... So just who is doing the brainwashing? How are they doing it and for what purposes?' David Sedgwick’s latest book takes the reader on a disturbing journey deep into the realms of mistruth and deception to reveal, for the very first time, the many tricks and subterfuges used by the British Broadcasting Corporation. Every time we engage with BBC content, the author argues, we are exposing ourselves to a very dark art: the art of brainwashing. Wilful, deceitful and incessant, Orwellian parallels define the modern corporation and should chill the soul of all who cherish freedom and liberty. Mind control is here. This is not fiction. BBC: Brainwashing Britain? is a shocking expose of mass propaganda, its components, and aims. You may never look at Auntie in the same way ever again.'

I'm considering buying a copy for jim.

Hasn't the Beep Beep See term been overdone now? I just don't get it.

[jackthehat]

Surely, fiction, 'Beep Beep See' is both hilarious and conveys the disdain in which the author holds the nation's broadcasting company?

aBBC is another.....

And, it really doesn't take much time to c&p swathes of uncredited rhetoric from whichever source serves today's purpose.

[retrocop]

No. Far from it. I will avoid the Beebs propaganda everytime.Shame really. They once produced some wonderful weekly series . A Horseman Riding By , To Serve them All My Days,. Now it is Left wing,PC dross..I ignore that Channel now.

[Tilly2]

No, it's not controlling my mind, as I hardly ever watch the television. I won't be buying the book.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
No apologies for apparent awareness of Mr Savilles misdeeds under their employ and Ms Rantzen ,the children's champion, knew of Saville saying it was the BBC's best kept secret. Yet she kept shtum.

The actual BBC reporting of the murders stated...

// A video apparently showing the beheading of one of the women was shared on social media by supporters of so-called Islamic State, and Norwegian authorities said on Friday //




The BBC initially went with.

Louisa Vesterager Jespersen, 24, from Denmark, and Maren Ueland, 28, from Norway, were found dead from knife wounds near a popular tourist spot.

"Inhuman, evil, sick: while finding words adequate enough to describe this horror seems an impossible as well as futile struggle, Britain’s state broadcaster has faced no such quandary. According to the BBC the two women died due to, wait for it, ‘injuries to the neck . . .’ that’s all, nothing else."

We seem to be descending into farce. Even without the excellent (and laudably swift) debunking by ichkeria, the writer seems to be complaining that he and the BBC have chosen different words to describe the indescribable.

"Is the Beep Beep See controlling my mind?"

If it removes your ability to spell BBC (there's a clue in the name), then my answer would have to be yes.

I haven't read everything on this thread and none of the links but the BBC went with ' found dead from knife wounds'

[vetuste_ennemi]

Pity the Sedgwick book has such a provocative title as it akes it more likely that its central contention (of BBCideological bias) will be dismissed out of hand rather than examined critically.

I prefer the Robin Aitken title "The Noble Liar" in fact have just bought it). Those of you who have found it easy to dismiss Sedgwick for his hyperbole would find it more difficult to rebut many of Aitken's more measured arguments which he presents in the interview I provided a link to earlier.

3. Dragons Den

That's it!

Your mind, though not being exactly over-challenged, should survive on that diet :0)

How can you doubt the dear old Auntie Beeb, Khandro? She’ll put you straight. ;o)

[ichkeria]

The evidence provided for all this nine control thus far is pretty thin.
Seems mainly to be based on the BBC not immediately reporting that a particular murder was the worker of a crazed beheading gang.
Having read a few reviews, other evidence seems to consist of stuff about Nigel Farage’s appearances on Question Time.
All of which suggests it might be an interesting and entertaining read.
What I find ironic is that the sane people who complain constantly here about victim mentality in various groups are the same ones who shout loudly about themselves as victims when it suits.
That surely says a lot about us. And a these books are apparently so popular.

[Khandro]

ichi; //That surely says a lot about us. And a these books are apparently so popular.//

Might it possibly be that these books are so popular because they contain important revelations about the workings of today's publicly funded BBC?
At least one of the authors worked 25 years for the Corporation, so it could be he knows a bit more than you or I.

[ichkeria]

I explained earlier why I think they’re popular.
