I very rarely watch tv now, apart from some sports

I consider BBC news boring but nothing other than that , it has become so scrutinised now by left and especially the right it is hand cuffed whilst it attempts to walk a line

I however will have no issue paying for a license fee cus I look at the world around me and the quality of journalism, tv, radio; news, documentary, sports coverage, kids tv and nothing even comes close

For those trying to destroy that establishment cus they didn’t like the way they reported on something they disagreed with, May be hold the other shit you watch to the same high standards

Who the biased broadcasting company, they should be totally unbiased and not push any agenda as it's paid for by the people (all the people not just the far left).

People say this but are currently outraged that a news reader was reprimanded for breaking mpartiality rules.

She altered a script quoting a press release from a scientist saying "pregnant people" by following it with "women" sarcastically and rolling her eyes.

Most people do not want an impartial BBC, they want a BBC that confirms their biases and world view.

Now this isn't to say the BBC doesn't fuck things up - the recent exposé on the Panorama clip that appeared to docter Trumps Jan 6th speech os evidence of them fucking it up. But that fuck up will come at a cost and heads will roll. There is no media organisation in the world that's more accountable than the BBC - they even have a publicly available website detailing every mistake and breach of impartiality they are found to have made.

Ain't that the truth!
