A global warming denial blog, aided and abetted by the BBC-hating Tory
tabloid the Daily Mail, is attacking BBC2's nightly
"Newsnight" (similar to Koppel-era "Nightline") for putting quotes
from President Obama's inauguration speech on the environment out of
order and therefore out of context in an analysis piece on Obama's
environmental platform:

If you look at the piece by science reporter Susan Watts, the quotes
are played as audio clips at the beginning of the piece over shots of
a palatial British countryside, with Watts' analysis delivered in a
greenhouse:

"Newsnight" admitted in 2007 that it had mixed up a chronology in
another piece at about the same time the Beeb was under fire for
showing a documentary about Queen Elizabeth II (produced by the people
who bring you "Wife Swap" and "Don't Forget the Lyrics!") that seemed
to show her storming out of an Annie Leibovitz photo shoot when she
hadn't.
