Default BBC tells its staff: don’t call Qatada extremist

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/t...extremist.html


(In order to avoid making a “value judgment”, the corporation’s managers have ruled that he can only be described as “radical”.
Journalists were also cautioned against using images suggesting the preacher is overweight. )



The BBC is Crazy
this one Extremist needs to go back to Jordan.

Stupid Euro Law stopping it.

It's because the BBC don't use sensationalist terms, unlike the Daily Mail they don't go around calling everyone who is different from them 'terrorists' or 'invaders'.

To call him a radical is a fact but to call him an extremist is an opinion leave the cheap tacky senationalist moron type reporting to fox/sky news.
the bbc deals with facts only.

His views are fanatical and extreme = he is an extremist. The BBC pussyfoot around for fear of upsetting anyone of any other race or creed, the only ones the BBC don't mind upsetting are white indiginous Brits and Christians. They are quite pathetic.

I'm thankful that the BBC's style of reporting isn't a combination of the Daily Mail/Fox News.

I'm sure their angry readers and viewers will be outraged though, the irony...

It's hard to believe people are worrying about semantics and not the fact that we have another lunatic about to join society.
