BBC Buys Google News Keywords In Kelly Case

foreign devil writes "BBC has purchased keywords related to coverage of the Hutton Inquiry in an attempt to direct all traffic to their special news coverage. This would be only moderately interesting, except the BBC is complicit in the death of Dr. Kelly and the 'sexing up' of the Iraq dossier. The article in the Guardian says this is coming out of the GBP 63.5m ad budget. I wonder how much it would cost them if someone, say, automated searching for those links on Google." It doesn't seem fair to pronounce the BBC complicit in Kelly's death (unless that's proven by the facts of the case), but it's certainly an interested party.

    This is unacceptable! I can understand paid links being exclusive but getting redirected just puts me off. Honestly, google better watch it because if someone better comes along I'm leaving.

    Frankly I get the impression this guy killed himself just to stick it to the government, to create a huge scandal. If it turns out he was murdered, that's another story, but the only person complicit in this man's suicide is himself.
