The BBC Wakes Up

Thursday, 6. October 2005 - 5:54 PM

The BBC seems to have finally woken up. No, I’m not talking about the biased reporting that has come to characterise it and therefore has spawned a host of sites devoted to catch its biases.

For a change, the BBC has begun to sound objective in its section devoted to the history of Hinduism. And more surprising is its page which summarizes the (now-discredited) Aryan Invasion Theory and actually presents the case against the AIT.

The desi blogworld’s historian at the Palm Leaf might be interested to follow up on this (hint hint)….

    Wow! I had to rub by eyes in disbelief after reading that page about AIT. That page looks like it was written by the editorial staff of The Organizer.

    But anyways it is great to see that MSM has finally accepted that Max Muller was wrong.

    Are you sure Organiser has not hacked BBC ;-)
    The language of the page is unequivocal in refuting AIT and further showing the correct
    agenda behind AIT.

    But , will the “left” “intellectual” “historians” be ready to accept this ?

    “Left” “intellectual”? Were you going for an oxymoron there? :)
