Censorship by Omission is one of the long-standing means of censorship and method of ‘controlling the narrative’ or ‘news management’ or creating and maintaining a structure of awareness for the mass of people. In my view and those of many others the BBC are particular experts in this approach although they are not alone. The homogeneity of broadcast and press news is in the UK is quite remarkable. The media ‘talking points’ and their associated lines of direction are consistent and again can usually be spotted without too much thought and attention.
I give you one very recent example of a large demonstration/procession in London’s West End on the 20th August which I think it is safe to say was not widely reported:

On a parallel theme but showing the other side of ‘news management’ which borders on downright propaganda I have been struck by the common theme of the strident BBC/ITV/Sky coverage of the US political scene over the last few days. Attacking President Trump is their stock in trade so nothing new but very noticeable all the same.
This coincides with a media push for Democrats/Biden, which in my view is so biased as to be laughable. They have to pretend not to know so many things to present this with a straight face.
I had a couple of photos which I couldn’t post to illustrate the point but watched this Tucker Carlson report on twitter which very eloquently and quite movingly tells the story of what is really going on in the USA – almost here now.

I strongly recommend you watch this – parts one and two –
all of it.This is truly shocking and shows how depraved and ruthless the Democrat politicians (and their paymasters) are. And somehow the BBC and the rest simply ignore it and even worse push their propaganda.
