I'd like to see some unemotional and non-greedy assessments. Yet you refuse to accept the BBC has a natural hostility to Scottish independence causing it to be biased. Three thousand people protested outside the Scottish parliament last week against brexit causing it to lose powers. Did you know that? Cause it wasn't reported on the BBC at all, but they had live footage of six people throwing some fish into the Thames on the same day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bob the tank Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 BBC did cover it. It was the eighth item on disreporting Scotland that night after someone living in Spain missing for two years, a cat up a tree, a murdur, SNPbad because and fitba. They deemed to allow the article 27 seconds and didn't go in to any details about why it was taking place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ordering is decided by the BBC is the point champ. And whether to mention what the protest is about, and whether to send cameras (they had live footage and interviews literally all day of six people throwing fish into a river).

And they did mention they were regurgitating the often declared SNP postion. Hardly a headliner. Quote Hundreds of people have gathered at Holyrood to stage a protest against a Westminster "power grab" on the Scottish Parliament. The event was organised by the Hands Off Our Parliament group, which said it aimed to defy Westminster attempts to "undermine devolution". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would they not mention the reasons for the protest. And how would you describe six people throwing fish into a river? What sort of prominence and coverage was that given in comparison?
