#1 Tony Benn to the BBC: If you won't do your job, I'll do it

This concerns how the BBC has covered the deaths and the general situation in Gaza. They apparently declined to show where people could give money aid so Tony called them on it and broadcast the address for them, arguing with the interviewer the whole time. I'm not entirely sure of the larger picture, but it seemed pretty awesome, and is news related, so I'm posting it.
