Default BBC's Dire Coverage of the Thames Flotilla and other Jubillee Events


BBC's Dire Coverage of the Thames Flotilla and other Jubillee Events

http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/34656

Responsible department: Department for Culture, Media and Sport

We the undersigned are appalled at the BBC's dire coverage and
reporting of the Jubilee events especially during the Thames Flotilla
on Sunday June 3. We are particularly concerned at the lack of
professionalism with regards to the presentation, editing and camera
angles. We are shocked at the use of the term 'Her Royal Highness'
when referring to Her Majesty the Queen. We are appalled at the total
lack of knowledge shown by the presenters of the individual boats
appearing in the Flotilla, especially regarding the Historic Boats and
the 'Little Boats of Dunkirk.' We were most disappointed that the
Spirit of Chartwell was not shown passing through Tower Bridge. This
programme was transmitted worldwide and was a national embarrassment.
We are also concerned that the Olympics will be likewise dumbed down.
