Ben Bradshaw is in gladiatorial combat with the Beeb. Battling the BBC is an all consuming passion for BB and, like the Lone Ranger, he fights alone. With Twitter as his Tonto, he has already fired salvos of no more than 140 characters at the Corporation’s “disgracefully feeble” scrutiny of the Conservatives, and this morning he targeted the Today Programme.
Outraged by Evan Davis’, I thought, appropriately pointed interrogation of George Osborne, Bradshaw tweeted:
“Another wholly feeble and biased Today programme rounded off with a fawning interview with a Tory pundit!!”
I will gloss over the Culture Secretary’s use of two exclamation marks because, as the Education Secretary misspells the title of his brief on communiqués, liberality with crass punctuation is a minor offence.
