I have been watching the news on BBC for the past 4 days regarding the Georgian Conflict, the news coverage was completely biased, some times the BCC looked liked a Georgian national news channel, the news was so biased that I stopped watching the news. The BCC was so concerned about the people in Georgia, that it completely forgot that people have died on the other side also. The news coverage never mentioned that the whole issue was started by the Georgian military forces on civilians. According to BCC nearly 200 people died on the Georgian side but nearly 2000 people died in South Ossetia. The action of the Georgian president is clear incident of genocide. If launching a military offence against a civilian target (that too in his country) doesn’t amount to genocide then what would? The BBC has a very good name in this part of the world (India & South Asia) but after episodes like this the trust on BCC will vanish as it will be looked upon as a one among the other western news channels reporting news from there government view.
