They should hand it over to Monty Python

Because nothing else could be as surreal as watching the BBC report on itself. The wierdness index peaked with the report on Greg Dyke speaking to senior journalists, delivered by BBC senior journalists who were reporting as if they hadn't been there.

The guy on news 24 interviewing a crisis management consultant was pretty wierd. Right now the news is covering possible replacements for Dyke and Evans and doing a brilliant job of pretending they don't have a stake in the outcome.

If anyone ever doubted the BBC's commitment to honest and dispassionate reporting they should just watch this. Its amazing. As for Blair, this could end up being a huge pyrrhric victory.

See?
