BBC Hide Climate Data

Earlier on today I spotted a headline on the BBC website front page, I've circled it for you on the image below (click on it to enlarge) :


I then clicked through to the main BBC News page and sure enough, it was there too. Once again I've circled it for you on the image below (click on it to enlarge) :


Out of genuine interest, in how bad the whitewash greenwash was going to be following the CRU email hack investigation, I clicked the link and whoa! Just a fucking minute .... looks like I should have kept that appointment at Specsavers then .... but no .... after a few retakes I'm sure that my eyes aren't deceiving me. It's just good old fashioned, totally predictable, BBC bias in action.

Yep. Suddenly the word 'hide' has been replaced by 'withhold':


That puts a totally different emphasis on the story, dontcha think.

I mean, how many people will have read the headline in the sidebars and just thought "Ok, fair enough" and then moved on to something else.

Now I wonder why the BBC would want to do that then?
Trying to hide, 'Hide the Decline' perhaps?
