In the American Thinker, James Lewis argues that a good deal of UK anti-Semitism can be attributed to BBC News:
But you don’t need to listen to imams or Hezbo-prop if you really want to hate Jews. All you need is to listen to the BBC itself. Some of its “news” stories are proven frauds. Virtually all of them are one-sided, the Beeb’s professional Inquisitors pointing their fingers at Israel and America, with none rising to their defense. Any jury would convict these scapegoats. Hatred of Israel and America has therefore become a plague, infecting the same people whose parents stood for decency against the Nazis. Most people just cannot mentally resist a 24/7/365 storyline from the six-billion-dollar Beeb propaganda factory. They are overwhelmed.
The BBC receives money from a mandatory TV license fee.
