BBC Fined for dodgy phone competitions

Yes, it is official the BBC are rip-off merchants, this following the corporation that gives a shit about no one being fined for running further fake phone competitions.

BBC

The BBC is a joke and a disgrace; how those are reportedly running the organization are still in jobs beggars belief.

What I don’t understand is how ITV got fined millions and the BBC only got fined a paltry £400,000. It’s one rule for the commercial sector (ITV) and one rule for government organization - The BBC.

I have written a few times on the site the fact the BBC is as bent as Julian Clary, and I tell you what I really begrudge paying the thieving bastards at the BBC any form of license fee.

Why the hell do I want to pay for Jonathan Ross to enjoy a good life at my expense. I suppose you could say the BBC are supporting the minorities with the employment of someone with a severe speech impediment.

I would not watch one of Jonathan Ross’s TV shows or listen to his radio show even if I knew it would cure my paralysis.

Let’s be honest, Jonathan Ross is about as funny as being told that you have cancer.

The fact that so many people who are struggling to make ends meat in these this dire financial time s have to fund his extravagant wage and lifestyle is wrong.

The BBC should salary cap its presenters - if they want to earn more, then parasites like Jonathan Ross can f*ck off to commercial TV.

I want to know other than Ofcom, who is doing anything about the runaway BBC juggernaut? The corporation seems happy to do what the f*ck it likes with our money and without a thought for anyone who gets in its way.

Dodgy Phone Competitions

The fine from Ofcom comes on the back of earlier fines for Children’s TV show Blue Peter. The seedy corporation are even trying to make a buck during their charity events, which is not surprising considering the greedy c*nt that is Terry Wogan was taking appearance money for hosting Children in Need.

Here is the list of shows the BBC got caought out on.

Comic Relief (BBC One, March 2007) - £45,000

Sport Relief (BBC One, July 2006) - £45,000

Children in Need (BBC One Scotland, November 2005) - £35,000

TMi (BBC Two and CBBC, September 2006) - £50,000

Liz Kershaw Show (BBC 6 Music, May 2005 to January 2006) - £115,000

Jo Whiley Show (BBC Radio 1, 20 April to 12 May 2006) - £75,000

Russell Brand (BBC 6 Music, April 2006) - £17,500

Clare McDonnell Show (BBC 6 Music, from September 2006) - £17,500

I’m sick of it, but as ever in this shite, toothless country no one will do anything about it, because as usual someone high-up is making money at our expense, and all the time this is happening, our arses will continue to get shafted.
