The Daily Mail And The BBC
EDM number 583 in 1991-92, proposed by Joseph Ashton on 29/01/1992.
That this House congratulates The Guardian newspaper and Mr Patrick Wintour in particular in exposing the connection between the Daily Mail and the Conservative Party Central Office and detailing the occasions when the Mail has printed lies, distortions and inventions about Labour's policies; further congratulates Mr Wintour on pointing out how the BBC's review of the papers and the producers of BBC2 Newsnight programme followed the Daily Mail line like a flock of sheep; and expresses its contempt for those journalists and broadcasters who know this Goebbels type news management is taking place but do not have the courage or integrity to resist it.
This motion has been signed by a total of 75 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
