Christopher Hitchens once said that self praise is no praise, , but I’m not sure the BBC have ever heard this before as they always seem so in love with whatever crap programme they’re pushing to help with their socio-cultural engineering project.
Since the days when the One Show was first broadcast i’ve noticed the internal self-cross-promotion of programmes, certain actors, presenters, singers and comedians all appearing on each others’ programmes, sucking each other off and living in a delusional, lefty world quite removed from the rest of Britain.
This onanistic tendency has become so demented as Strictly cum mincing celebrates the centenary of its broadcaster with contestants dancing to themes from BBC programmes, with an audience groaning with BBC employees (such as Sarah Cox) sycophantically whooping and clapping.
The narcissism of this organisation is staggering and reminds me of the state-backed clap-alongs of North Korea.
When Charlie Brooker wrote somewhat scathingly about the Express and Daily Star promoting Richard Desmond’s other products, I thought ‘take a look closer to home, you ugly twat!’
The BBC are as guilty as Desmond or Murdoch, but far more zealous in their ‘messaging’.
