OlegKuznetsov 10,816 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Yet again the reputation of our club and the support is tarnished on the BBC. Just about the last programme BBC Scotland aired in the old year contained 2 digs at the Rangers support and rioting and shoplifting in Manchester. The New Year is less than 4 days old and not only are the Manchester 'riots' now compared to an armed conflict that has seen hundreds die but the question is raised by an Asian as to how someone from his background could possibly support Rangers - in other words we are racist. When is the club going to grow a set of balls and do something about this? The Head of BBC Scotland should be hauled in front of Bain/Murray and told in no uncertain terms that between now and the end of the season the only access that the BBC will have to Ibrox is to film and commentate on SPL matches. No other access and no interviews should be granted to BBC personnel, including press briefings with the proviso that the situation will be reviewd at the end of the season. Or, is this something else that the vast majority of our support are simply going to ignore like everything else. I'm interested to know the opinions of those who took part in the recent BBC protest and those who rubbished the need to protest against this supposedly impartial organisation that we all pay for. Kohli didn't say what the timposter claimed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll easily stand up for the BBC on this point - It was a comedy program - not Panorama! - it was making points through Humour - some will see the funny side - some will rant - BUT do we really want to go down the road of censoring comedy - after all all comedy has a dig at someone/something and someone somewhere will take offense. Or do we only laugh at comedy directed against others! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
