BBC anti-Conservative attacks - the fightback

Maybe the fightback has started, Oscar a contributor to the Biased BBC forums has today blogged in reply to my "Most of the public like to see fair play, how can we show that the BBC is not playing fair?"

the following "Conservatives did a bit of biting back in today's broadcasts.
1. George Osborne took a swipe at James Naughtie answering one question about Gordon Brown with "well you know him better than I do."
2. Oliver Letwin swatted the usual 'lurch to the right' question from Martha Kearney on WATO with a sharp riposte that is was a piece of Labour propaganda.
3. And best of all at a fringe debate hosted by the BBC on whether Cameron was in touch with the grass roots a conservative woman turned the tables on Martha asking her why the BBC allowed Gordon to get away with 'British jobs for British workers' rhetoric and indeed got feted for it, but if a conservative had said it they would be torn limb from limb. Funnily enough she didn't reply.

It went a small way to getting the message across - but obviously nowhere near enough to combat the shameless bias. I've also noticed that the BBC are shifting the rhetoric on the election to a triumphalist crowing that Brown has set "an elephant trap" for the Conservatives - confirming what I suspected all along, it's all been one of his stunts and he has no intention of calling an election. If people have any sense this will backfire on him - all it tells you about Brown is that he is a dodgy man who sets elephant traps. So much for 'trust'. But no doubt the BBC will come up with yet more spin to cover up for him.

I spotted number 1 but I doubt that subtlety such as 1 & 2 will do much to redress the balance, I do like number 3 though...
