BBC TV refuses to show Tomlinson assault video

-
BBC national TV news is refusing to show the video of Ian Tomlinson being attacked by the police on the basis that it is 'only London news'. Initially the BBC, like the rest of the broadcast and print media, dismissed the killing as a disconnected incident of a bystander collapsing inexplicably from a heart attack.

WTF - who are the right-wing idiots running the BBC?

How much shame do they want to bring down on the head of this once world-respected news organsiation?

Why is the BBC so scared of the truth - be it in Gaza or on our own doorstep?

Ring 03700100222 to complain.
