‘The Make believers’ – Film company announces plans for documentary about BBC reporting in Scotland
Wednesday

The company, Equinox TV which is part of Equinox Scotland Limited – an independent production company - has launched a bid to raise funds in order to produce a documentary that “puts the BBC’s news coverage under the microscope.”

According to the fund raising website, the documentary will see “World-renowned experts in propaganda and media bias explore compelling evidence that the once widely-admired public service broadcaster has stooped to using highly questionable tactics to manipulate public opinion, such as:

- distorting reality
- stifling debate
- spin-doctoring, and
- using politically-loaded language


the company concerned is hoping to raise £3,000.. from reading the comments they have already raised over half their target..

Judging by the size to the budget, I suppose it will be a couple of people with an iPad and a bicycle?

i thought it was a very small amount too.. but in the comments someone posted that a similar request was made by a tv company in catalonia who received more donations than expected and as a result were able to make a better programme..
