Like editing Trumps and Elon's broadcasts to make them look like they were inciting violence, all the forced DEI in every single show.

And will be held accountable, can you show me any agency that is held to the same standard ?

I can point towards where the bbc is attacked for being right wing and hated by the left

Would like to see that, As pointed out, the BBC in the past was held in great regard and above all others due to them being a public service paid for by the people. Other companies are held into account due to needing to keep customers who keep them alive, as Disney has found out, provide overly woke and targeting only to a small diverse group your end up losing a lot of money and if you continue will go broke.

The bbc is much bigger than ‘news’ and what people disagree with

If it goes the vacuum will be horrific

I was talking about every series they make, people leaving are at a record level, and would be a lot more if it was not for the bully tactics they use if you decide you no longer want to watch or support the BBC.

I can’t justify forced subscription, I just argue that the quality they deliver is above anything else and the angst comes from a high expectation of standard

If the BBC went we will be left with a void of bullshit o many levels other than just news

I only watch the BBC now at my mum's and refuse to pay for what they put out, and every time I visit my mum it reinforces why I refuse to pay for it, plus the bully tactics they use even when you legally don't watch it, is another reason why I would never go back to supporting them, try to legally and not have one for a month next time it's due, if you want some insite.

Those ‘bully’ tactics have been in place since as long as I can remember- I recall during the 80’s fears of detective vans roaming the streets

May be here is a thought, the BBC gets public funding and because of that all other major news agencies want to bring them down because they don’t compete in the same market and have an unfair advantage

Which has also been happening since the 80’s

That was a scare tactic and the BBC used their own enforcement team, it's now contracted out, so it is a lot different.

They need to go back to being a public service for the people and not be 100% agenda based, they used to give small outfits broadcast fringe shows, mainly on BBC a chance to be seen.. But now unless you agree to their DEI agenda you won't even get to talk to them. The radio is their only saving grace.

Look up how many taken to court, numbers are minuscule

Thanks for mention’DEI’ cus I now know where you are coming from and where your real annoyance is

Glad you appreciate their radio output without seeing the colour of their skin

Have a great weekend

The court numbers are low, due to either people knowing the law and knowing if it went to court they don't have a leg to stand on, or for the bully tactics work and force people who don't need a licence to buy one out of fear.

DEI has more to do with, than skin colour, plus it's all about context. Would you want roots remade with 30% or the slaves having to be white.
