Title: Bowling for Columbine :-)
Post by: Dan on July 02, 2005, 10:36:15 PM

I just saw Bowling for Columbine one of the swedish public service tv-channels, it was ............                                     amusing.

So much for PS-TV keeping a politically neutral attitude, eh? ;-)

All regimes school their children. In Sweden we are schooled to be good little social democrats! :lol:

Public service TV is supposed to be politically neutral, isn't  it? "Bowling for Columbine" doesn't really fit into that image, IMO.

Doesn´t mean that every program has to be watered down pc-crap, but I doubt that they are going to send a "documentary" from the gun-nut-lobby anytime soon!

And besides it isn´t about swedish politics!
How could they ever be "political neutral" to Mugabe or NorthKorea?

No, the news( or free advert time as I call it), Agenda and Uppdrag gransking is far worse, can´t even watch the last two.

Or Perssons and  Reinfeldts "presidential debates"!

Absolutely! The rest of the crap they're airing is also annoying left-wing commie propaganda! :-D

I never said I disliked it! I just said that Swedish public service-TV definitely isn't politically neutral! :lol:

Nahh, "Liberal Propaganda" is more accurate.  Well, for the BBC it is anyway.

I can't say I often see much "left wing anything" on TV.

Maybe what Yanks call left wing, but not proper left wing stuff.

I think the right name is "New Labour"/"new maketliberal european socialism" propaganda.
As preached by Blair, Schröder and our Persson.

Blair ain't "New Labour", he might have been 8 years ago, but he's proper Thatcherite these days.
