Either you're exceptionally arrogant, in which case I don't understand why you'd bother even engaging the site (after all, they must be a bunch of crazies if they can only come up with one valid example in 3600! Perhaps crazier than the "troofers"!) , or you're exceptionally defensive. In either case, you don't seem to have the open mind of a trained journalist. Nick,

I’m a low level Techie at the BBC with access to the internal posting board called Talk Gateway. Over the years I’ve posted many links to Biased BBC and the USS Neverdock. I’ve tried to make as many people at the BBC aware of your blogs. I have an idea Nick, how about a guest posting for one of your friends on Talk Gateway? Let’s give them a chance to explain what they are about, and what they would like to see change at the corporation? Kind regards Mark Hi Nick

I presume you are referring to the CBBC Newsround pages on the events of 9/11 that were condemned as being tantamount to Al Qaeda propaganda. If not, well there you go - there's one more example.
