BBC accused of 'promoting euthanasia by ignoring rights of disabled'

The BBC has been accused of promoting euthanasia by a cross-party group of MPs who called on ministers to threaten to cut off the supply of public money to the broadcaster. They claim there had been ''numerous complaints'' over the ''persistent bias of the BBC on matters relating to euthanasia and other life issues and on the manner in which the BBC have misused public funds to promote changes in the law.'' The MPs complain of ''thinly-disguised plays and soap operas being used to promote the use of euthanasia and misrepresentation of pro-life activists in the UK as people of violence.'' Telegraph
