        @BBCBreaking When you start showing the news without being biased and one sided, maybe then you can start complaining about pay.

        @BBCBreaking Ironic that the story has been broken by some of those very same hacks...BBC should be banned for the duration of the games.

        @BBCBreaking Bad timing with your disgracefully biased reporting on the Israeli massacre. This will only make you even more unpopular.
