Baxter Parp Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 BBC ‘bias’ against independence was essential http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/opinion/article4539474.ece?CMP=OTH-gnws-standard-2015_08_26 Alex Massie thinks everything's fine.

Peppino Impastato Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 She's been head of programming since 2009, so was responsible for a lot of the disgraceful behaviour of the BBC herself. And she doesn't accept there is any bias, just a problem of perception. Plus look at that fringe holy f**k its a coos lick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz FFC Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 I like the fact that people under 40 don't take the BBC and newspapers seriously because the real truth can be easily found out. The sooner folk who believe everything they read and the beeb tells them are 6 foot under the better for humanity in Britain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

git-intae-thum Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Don't think you can rely on one or two sources of media. The problem is a large section of society do. Hence they are never exposed to questioning of the set agenda. In this country the bbc has been the predominant media source. Its everybit as biased towards the national establishment as "putin today." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peppino Impastato Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Course it is, from ww2 to the miners strike to the Scottish referendum the BBC has actively colluded with the government to distort information, suppress information and present the facts the way the British government wants them presented. Read their latest charter statement, they are legally required to promote the UK and social cohesion within it, meaning it's literally illegal for them to for example show balance on all issues relating to Scottish independence as their charter requires them to promote the UK. The real idiots are the ones who think only their news isn't biased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is almost Celtic-esque in its paranoia. The full statement is a perfectly reasonable one and reads: To reflect, represent and serve the diverse communities of all of the United Kingdom’s nations and regions and, in doing so, support the creative economy across the United Kingdom: the BBC should reflect the diversity of the United Kingdom both in its output and services. In doing so, the BBC should accurately and authentically represent and portray the lives of the people of the United Kingdom today, and raise awareness of the different cultures and alternative viewpoints that make up its society. It should ensure that it provides output and services that meet the needs of the United Kingdom’s nations, regions and communities. The BBC should bring people together for shared experiences and help contribute to the social cohesion and wellbeing of the United Kingdom. In commissioning and delivering output the BBC should invest in the creative economies of each of the nations and contribute to their development.

Peppino Impastato Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 You can't contribute to the social cohesion of the UK if you accurately and fairly report even one fact which may more likely the breakup of the UK it's not possible. Providing balance in the independence debate is clearly a breach of their charter. Rangersesque britnattery from you though. Surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peppino Impastato Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 And they're obviously institutionally biased against Scottish independence anyway, acting as a propaganda arm of the state trying to assist efforts to prevent independence. they are not amprofessional news corporation acuurately reporting the factw The BBC political editor met Cameron twice in the weeks before the referendum ffs, he didn't meet with salmond except to attack him with nonsensical questions then lie about his answer on a public broadcaster.

I have heard many times on the BBC radio and TV that weeseaweed is threatening to call sepref2. I note she never uses the words will or shall when talking about sepref2. Is that because the BBC never reports this or the fact she never mention the words? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
