Dear Miss Jubin,
Many thanks for taking the time to reply to me. May I just follow up with a few quick points that I would like you view on (by you, I mean the BBC)?
1) How is the public able to decide if they are interested or not if "news-outlets" don't tell them?
2) If, according to what you say, a proportion of the public might not find it interesting, then surely that means another proportion of them will? What about them? Why are those who will find it interesting being ignored? This question leads onto my next one...
3) Does the BBC not find it "news-worthy", or resent (given it is still ongoing - this could even be called a "Breaking-Story") or even "INTERESTING", that large numbers of high-level politicians, bankers, and general movers & shakers in the world (including Clinton and Obama hours before the final count was announced) were meeting in secret (and have done since 1954) and are discussing matters of future policies, currencies, economic strategies, etc, and how to bring into effect and even who will run/will elections (statements from insiders cooberating that statement and history proving it - Tony Blare and Margaret Thatcher, amongst MANY others, were both members of this group and BOTH became leaders of their respective Parties within ONE year of attending and both then went on to run the country) "interesting" and worthy of presenting these hidden facts to the licence-fee-paying public?
4) Does the BBC hold any view/position as to why "ALL" of the international main-stream "news-outlets" are silent on this meeting?
If you personally are unable to answer any of these question, you are most welcome to forward this email to someone who can speak on behalf of the BBC about its position on this matter.
Thank you once again for your assistance so far and I look forward to hearing from you in due course.
Yours sincerely,
Ian McFerran

Dear Mr McFerran
Thank you for your email.
I understand you feel the BBC should be reporting on the Bilderberg meeting as you feel it is an extremely important issue.
BBC News is more than aware that a report that is of great interest to one part of our audience may be of little interest to another. The choice of which reports are included in the news has more to do with whether it is news that has just come in and needs immediate coverage, how unusual it is and how much national interest there is in the subject matter. The choice has to be selective and no matter how carefully such decisions are made, news editors are always aware that some people may disagree with them.
You may rest assured that I do understand your concerns, however I hope this goes someway to explaining the very difficult decisions news editors have to make and why they make them. You may rest assured that your comments have been registered and brought to the attention of BBC News.
Thank you for taking the time to contact us to express the strength of your views.
Regards
Ross Jubin BBC Complaints __________________________________________

{Comments:} This is not just about the BBC it is about all UK & USA "news" outlets! Why are you not reporting on The Bilderberg meeting being held right now? See here: http://www.infowars.com/?p=2564 and here: http://www.infowars.com/?p=2575. What is your justification, given that is, on the face of it, an increadably important story? BBC, please explain!
