BBC backs down over environment show

The other day we talked about the BBC's planned "Planet Aid" telethon. But now it's been cancelled.

Sounds like it was too controversial. According to the BBC's website ""The BBC says it cut the special because audiences prefer factual output on climate change"

There are suggestions that it would have left the BBC open to accusations of bias.

And they refused our request to show "An Inconvenient Truth".

We wonder who twisted their arms?
