Beheading Men Is Funny According to BBC

.


Beheading Men Is Funny According to BBC One of Britain’s best known authors has been shortlisted for a national writing prize for a story that takes a blackly comic approach to the execution of hostages in Iraq.

The BBC is due to broadcast the story this week on Radio 4.

Ah yes. The BBC continues with its agenda. Now the people at the BBC want us to have a good laugh over the execution and beheading of men.

I think I'll make an audio podcast that pokes fun at women's clits being sliced off in Africa. I wonder if the BBC would broadcast it. After all, losing your clit is not quite as bad as losing your head, is it?

And never kid yourselves that these sh#ts at the BBC are simply unaware of the fact that such humour degrades men horribly.

No Sir. After all, ...

... Alex Linklater, associate editor of Prospect magazine, founder of the prize, said the BBC may alter this plan, particularly while the whereabouts of Alan Johnston, its abducted Gaza correspondent, are still unknown.

“As with all fiction where there are close parallels to real news, it’s a question of sensitivity,” said Linklater.

The sensitivity may be increased by the fact that British hostages in addition to Iraqis and others have had their murders by insurgents filmed.

Do you see?

Some people at this particular point in time - such as the families of those men who have been beheaded - might get upset because they are feeling particularly sensitive at the moment.

And we wouldn't want that, would we? It would be too embarrassing.

So maybe it is best that we do not broadcast this hateful programme until some further time has past.

This way, we can get our message across without too much in the way of complaint. We can sneak in the idea that beheading men is funny at a more appropriate time!

Make no mistake: The BBC is well aware that this programme degrades and insults men. And the proof of this lies in the italicised paragraphs above. The only reason that the BBC might have doubts about broadcasting this programme is because some people at this point in time might be particularly sensitive. But as soon as they can get away with it, they will.

And does anyone seriously think that the BBC would broadcast a programme that made fun of women being beheaded - or stoned for adultery - or whatever? No, of course they would not broadcast such a programme - because they know that, apart from anything else, it would be insulting to women and it would degrade them.
