BBC Wikipedia vandal and censor warned

Bryan at Biased BBC posted some links to Wikipedia's numerous warnings to the BBC to stop censoring and vandalizing their site.

In this example a BBC employee tried to edited out the Greyskull comment scandal from Kirsty Mcabe's page.

"A BBC weather girl was forced to apologise yesterday after calling Rangers' stadium Castle Greyskull on air."


Here's an example of a BBC employee vandalizing Wikipedia.

In this example a BBC employee inserts a gay comment about Dimitar Berbatov.

Here a BBC employee calls footballer, Ben Thatcher, a "cunt" and a "violent cunt".

The BBC edits out criticism of BBC shows as well. The BBC removed this from Jeremy Vine's page.

"The Jeremy Vine show on BBC Radio 2 tends to exhibit tabloid style journalism, with sensationalist, often [[The_Sun_(newspaper)|Sun]] style headlines bearing little resemblance to the facts of the feature (for example, the headline "school children forced to take drugs tests at the school gates", when in fact, as the feature detailed, the drugs tests weren't compulsory, nor at the school gates."


The BBC routinely make up their own "facts".
