<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dear BBC,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Balance is the target of course. Why then is it
that you rarely</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>accord demonstration organisers/leaders/speakers
airtime in</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>your main news programmes ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We are given endless reams of speculation and
'official' reporting.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Home news is being sidelined and with it the voice
of the very </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>significant numbers who are angered, feel
disenfranchised (in a</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>democracy ?!), stand roundly against the
war.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This is poor practice.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I do thank you for last night's Panorama which gave
voice to</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>articulate and plain questions from around the
world. The fact </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>they went (largely) unanswered says much about our
political,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>legal and moral position
internationally.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Balance, balance, balance.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Yours sincerely,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
