Well, That's BBC For Ya...

British Bullshit Corporation, you know. But it applies generally to the majority of modern media class everywhere. 

Oh dear. Could things get any worse for the fledgling BBC Verify, launched to combat the scourge of fake news? The fact-checking service has already faced criticism for failing to spot the BBC’s own blunders – such as the Corporation’s misfired reporting on Nigel Farage and Coutts. Now though it looks like the service’s star reporter could be in a bit of hot water.  According to the New European, the BBC’s disinformation correspondent Marianna Spring was allegedly caught embellishing her CV when applying for a job in 2018. The paper alleges that five years ago Spring wanted to work as a Moscow stringer for the US-based outlet Coda Story and wrote on her CV:  

No surprise here, Western media establishment produces primarily professional BSers with zero real life applicable skills, while purging real journalists who do report facts. Very much same applies to many sectors of academia, especially so in the humanities field, but not exclusively. 

What many do not recognize, is the fact that constant BSing inevitably leads to the atrophy of remaining actual skills in any field. One of my patrons today shared with me an outstanding piece by former Airbus Chief Scientist on why the West most likely will not get any hypersonic weapons any time soon--he blames education, or, rather, lack thereof in the modern West (In French). 

INTELLIGENCE, TECHNOLOGY AND ARMAMENT NOTE N°61 / August 2023 What could be the reasons for Western delay in hypersonic weapons? Jean-François GENESTE Jean-François Geneste has nearly 40 years of experience in the aeronautics, space and defense fields. He was scientific director of the EADS group, now Airbus Group, for 10 years. He was a professor at the Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology in Moscow. He is currently the CEO of the startup WARPA which has just been awarded a patent for its infinite specific impulse space propulsion engine.

Enjoy, this piece hits all proper nails on their heads. One cannot BS non-stop in anything, eventually BS catches up and voila'...
