"The interview was 90% Barack Obama ... and the thrust of the interview was that America was a racist nation and that there were huge numbers of people in this country, especially from the evil South, who simply would not vote for Barack solely because of the color of his skin. "
Painting a false picture of America is something the BBC is proud of.
"America is often portrayed as an ignorant, unsophisticated sort of place, full of bible bashers and ruled to a dangerous extent by trashy television, superstition and religious bigotry, a place lacking in respect for evidence based knowledge.
I know that is how it is portrayed because I have done my bit to paint that picture, and that picture is in many respects a true one. "
Lot's more here.
