One of my earliest memories of the BBC is being shushed by my parents in the mid- and late- '50s because they were "listening to the news." That news was the BBC World Service, on my Ol' Man's huge Hallicrafters shortwave radio, while we were stationed in Paris and later Ankara, Turkey. As I got older, say around age 12 or 13, I used to join them in listening. It was a nightly ritual, and it must have looked like a Norman Rockwell illustration. (Really.) We had no TV...Buckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05319116022465066060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18232353.post-1154001585752820032006-07-27T05:59:00.000-06:002006-07-27T05:59:00.000-06:00That last statement from Barnes just about says it...That last statement from Barnes just about says it all. "The truth is somewhere else." No kidding! It is amazing how much I hear siding with Israel, and yet the MSM and the BBC types continuely push us to side with Hezbollah. Why is that? Because it sells better? <BR/><BR/>Four years ago when we were in Italy, the BBC was the only English speaking TV we could get. After just a little of their reporting, I would be disgusted with their anti-American views even then.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for a great post, Buck. You know me, I don't watch much news (makes me crazy). I tend to read my blogs and some internet news. You always have interesting things to point out.Bag Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01885412195900280096noreply@blogger.com
