BBC whitewashes coverage of Pope in Israel



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

It's nice to see that even the vaunted BBC can be as pathetic as the American press from time to time.

Seriously, though, how does the BBC do a story about the Pope condemning Holocaust deniers and not mention that the reason the Pope is even saying this at all is because he welcomed a Holocaust denying Bishop back into the church a few months ago, causing a massive scandal?

How does that little fact get dropped from the story?

Oh, and the BBC also conveniently forgot to mention the little fact that the Vatican has historically been accused of turning a blind eye to the plight of Europe's Jews during WWII. Perhaps the BBC should be reading Reuters. They at least got the story right.
