BBC conspiring to cause civil war in Iran.

Here’s a partial screenshot of todays (Mon 28th Dec) BBC Middle East page. Note: my previous blogpost pictured yesterdays BBC’s frontpage pic.

Do you notice anything? Look at my post from yesterday and then look again at this one.

It’s the same guy!

So? Well it’s quite possible the BBC is just using smaps taken in one session – the background does look similar, but look at the dudes right hand. In yesterdays pic there is no red patch AND there is no green band either. Where did that red colour come from? The immediate impression is that the red colour is blood. But it seems to me that it’s probably bene painted on. In which case the BBC is showing a misleading picture without any discussion as to what’s going on. The cameraman is pretty keen on this guy so it’s likely the cameraman knows whether the red is real or not (It’s my contention that it’s paint).

what does yesterdays pic and todays pic actually show us? One guy in what seems like a pretty isolated spot. The second pic with the red paint has much higher flames in the background, more smoke AND is of a narrower angle, focusing more on the guy.

Is all this not an act of manipulation? Worse still, it lends itself to the suggestion that the BBC is actually aiding the unrest in Iran in a deliberate context.

Given the disgraceful record of the politicised BBC News and Current affairs departmant and the lack of public awareness of its ”Governers’, I think that last possibility cannot be discounted.
