BBC loads studio audience

Biased BBC reports that the BBC has admitted filling the studio audience of a program on terrorism with a disproportionate number of Muslims: 'around 15% of the audience as opposed to 2.7% in the country as a whole'.

Why can't we even imagine a BBC program on Israel being overloaded with Jews and Israelis?

UPDATE: Hey, Instapundit had the same thought.

Yup. The Biased Broadcasting Corporation is yet again earning their stripes.

In fact, the share of Muslims was even higher than 15%. This is what the BBC said:

"But the rest of the audience - around 85% - included representatives of a number of other different ethnic and religious groups, including Christian, Hindu, Sikh, African Caribbean, English, Irish, Kashmiri and Turkish ."

Since Turks and at least some Kashmiris were also Muslims, we get that the true share of Muslims in the audience was above 15%.

At the BBC, they call it a "range of voices". And the more Muslim voices, the better!

What about the Jews?

Perhaps BBC is afraid of "Muslims" and wants to please them.
