Yes the Today programme has a strong left-liberal bias but it cannot hold a candle to The World Tonight, which has turned the sidelining (almost to the point of exclusion) of all right-of-centre opinion into an art form.

And it goes beyond that. The programme always opposed the Iraq War and last night, running true to form, invited on two guests to discuss the issue. Unlike Newnight and PM (for example), which granted some space to supporters of the war, The World Tonight interviewed one critic of the war, Dr Mark Weller of Cambridge University, and then another, Sir Alan Beith of the Liberal Democrats (I.C. of 0 for Robin Lustig, unsurprisingly.)

This programme floats along in its own parallel universe.
