 Mainstream media BBC, ITV etc black out/censorship of anti war protestors at Hillsborough. Local news BBC, did give us a glimpse of thousands of anti war protestors at Hillsborough, but that was all we got. The BBC/ITV dedicated about 10 mins to the tiny DUP George Seawright memorial PRO WAR rally in Belfast city center but failed to cover anti war protests in depth. Although thousands of anti war protestors flocked to Hillsborough, the mainstream media preffered to focus on the tiny DUP George Seawright memorial PRO WAR rally in belfast city center. |

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6Capt Amam Mastrianni , intelligence officer with the 101st Airborne Division stated yesterday evening that the suspect chemicals found in Iraq were found to be no more than pesticides. Rte is still broadcasting on it's news reports that they are possible "weapons of mass destruction" have been discovered.
They have been caontacted 10 times this morning and will not take the correct informating.
Thye know they are lying and they are determined to ignorantly continue
The only thing to do is make complaints to the Broadcasting Complaints Commission. Its important that the nature of the calls a, the times & the response from RTE personnel at the time is documented.

TV3- Irelands 'independent' station gave a figure of 500 people who marched. I saw them there with their cameras. Its a disgrace.
They say they will put it before a comission meeting in June or July if I put it in writing to
2/5 Warrington Pl
Dublin 2
They will then forward it to RTE!
There's got to be a better way?
There were about 2,500 people there.
Can someone give the offical SWP/IAWM and PSNI figures so that we can apply the usual formula and work out how many were there! ((SWP/3)+(PSNI*2))/2
