I've mentioned this several times already, but does anyone else feel the BBC are trying to hush up today's events?

Have you ever seen somebody lick the chutney spoon in an Indian Restaurant and put it back ? - Cyberghoul -
Not really
The BBC report what they are told to a certain extent. One inital explosion and the reason being given being reported does not make a cover up.
Radio 5 live now reporting it as 6 explosions. Just takes time to catch up.my ferret is your ferretComment

Looks like the BBC is working with the police to hush it up and prevent any panic.

Originally posted by WageSlaveBecause they seemed slower on reporting than other sites. BBC still claimed there were only 'walking wounded' and it was caused by a power surge on the tube when other news agencies were talking about buses exploding and people being killed.

Originally posted by zathrasNope. Had News 24 on since I heard (which is hilarious since I was blissfully unaware that there was an explosion at one of my local tube stations until panicked family called to see if we were OK).
