Mail-more BBC Bashing

This story in this mornings paper:

How the BBC buried the cash-for-honours story

"The BBC faced more claims of New Labour bias Friday night after giving prominence to Downing Street's instant denial over the latest twist in the cash-for-honours scandal.
Rival ITV News led its 6.30pm bulletin on Thursday with allegations that police had found deleted e-mails on a second computer system linked to the probe.
The Mail was also working on making the story its front-page splash Friday.
But the BBC's Ten O'Clock News spent less than 20 seconds on the story Thursday evening. When it did get round to the story at 10.20pm, the broadcaster decided to focus on the Government's instant rebuttal."
