IN THE BLUE BUT OFF THE SCREEN!

>> Saturday, February 11, 2012

A B-BBC reader asks;

"During the milder than normal November/December of 2011, I saw a weather report on the BBC which used a graphic comparing temperatures to the average for the time of year.

From memory, the graphic and the temperature line used nice warmish colours and was on an upward trajectory. This indicated the temperature was above average for the time of year, and that it would be rising for the rest of the week in question. 
I've been waiting to see a similar graphic with blue colours on a downward trajectory. Maybe I've missed it, but I wonder if any of your other eagle-eyed readers have spotted one?"

Over to you...

We recorded -13.3c last night thats the coldest I have ever recorded in Britain. Hardly a word. Last month they were happy to forecast that we were heading for the mildest winter on record. Now what do the say Nothing. We all know its colder.
So its make a fuss when its warmer and says little or nothing when its colder.

Biased BBC.

Look at the graph below, it compares alarmist CAGW models in green with the reality and solar based variation in blue.

As you can see the CAGW fraudsters computer models are dead wrong, the IPCC based models are utterly wrong.

here is a graph the BBC will not be showing, its a bit like Obamas approval rating, when its down its invisible, when its up the BBC advertises it as if it were the word of the Gods.

Great Cassandra, have just blogged and linked (and added the widget!) Worth pointing out that it is still 'only another model' although the data backs it up more than the governmental backed one!

Oh dear poor B-BBC and Harribo's pet weather washing idea has rather fallen flat  so wounder how much cash that little plot cost us ?

You'll have a long wait.  The BBC are stuck in this greenie time warp, where everything is getting warmer, even if it's colder, and they'll never admit to backing the wrong horse.

They'll spin and spin and spin, and then spin some more - after all, pensions depend on it.  I'd like to say their credibility depends upon it, but of course we all know it doesn't - they no longer have any credibility, about anything.

Off on a huge tangent. What do people think of BBC use of blue screen behind reporters?

By January 20 they were saying the average for the month was higher than usual esp when compared to  January before  ie comparing 3 weeks info in one yearwith 4 weeks info of other years .

He's the popular weather man on Look North. If they fire him, they'll have hundreds of thousands of OAPs going apeshit. They wouldn't dare.

The bias goes like this.

If the observations do not fit the assumptions, then there must be an error in the observations. Therefore they make a correction. The problem with this is that the errors are always colder than the corrections.

"Global warmists throw in the towel"

"But we were not just anti-Macmillan; we were anti-industry, anti-capitalism, anti-advertising, anti-selling, anti-profit, anti-patriotism, anti-monarchy, anti-Empire, anti-police, anti-armed forces, anti-bomb, anti-authority. Almost anything that made the world a freer, safer and more prosperous place, you name it, we were anti it."
Antony Jay, Telegraph, July 2007

Andrew Marr

"..the final answer, frankly, is the vigorous use of state power to coerce and repress. It may be my Presbyterian background, but I firmly believe that repression can be a great, civilising instrument for good. Stamp hard on certain 'natural' beliefs for long enough and you can almost kill them off."
Andrew Marr, The Guardian Feb. 1999

Jeremy Paxman

"But the bigger question is whether the BBC itself has a future. Working for it has always been a bit like living in Stalin’s Russia, with one five-year-plan, one resoundingly empty slogan after another. One BBC, Making it Happen, Creative Futures, they all blur into one great vacuous blur. I can’t even recall what the current one is. Rather like Stalin’s Russia, they express a belief that the system will go on forever."
Jeremy Paxman, The James McTaggart Memorial, 24th August 2007
