OSBORNE ATTACKS DARLING'S PLANS...OR TO PUT IT ANOTHER WAY...

*
The 'Chancellors Debate' on Channel 4 is over. The spinning from all sides begins.
*
The BBC News website home page leads with the story. What is its angle?
*
Well, its headline is Darling launches Tory tax attack
*
And the summary beneath reads Chancellor Alistair Darling labels Tory economic policy "irresponsible" in a TV debate with rivals George Osborne and Vince Cable.
*
Fancy that, the BBC presenting the story from Labour's perspective!

UPDATE 21.55 pm Guess what? The BBC News website has 'revised' its home page.
*
Getting rid of the biased headline quoted above, it has replaced it with the far better Chancellors square up in debate.
*
The summary beneath now reads Alistair Darling clashes with his Tory and Lib Dem counterparts over tax rises and spending cuts in a live TV debate.
*
That is what it should have said in the first place.
*
Who complained to make this happen, I wonder?
