BBC bias

Comes over very badly but she was talking about how the Tories see it going, and miss-phrased it imo. Likely a Freudian slip though.

She is a Tory cow.  She litterly snogs Johnson every time she interviews him.

 

Between her and Robinson f**k the bbc.

Just listened to a BBC election podcast. The political editor LK described the results as ‘the map turning blue except Scotland which was a ‘grotesque’ yellow!’
Why include that word? Why not just say ‘yellow’.
It was the same the way they described Nicola ‘celebrating Swinson losing!’ instead of saying she was celebrating her candidate winning.
You may think these are small pedantic points, but this is just the start wait till we get into the full Indy campaign. We are going to be up against the full weight of the British Establishment and media.
Hard hats on guys!

No surprise as that's what the establishment does.

That'll be a 'grotesque yellow' of her BBC graphics department colleagues choosing, or was this another of Nicola's demands ?  And why wouldn't a Scottish Nationalist do a jig of joy when a hubristic, fake-accented pimple on the arse of Scottish politics was emptied in full public glare ?  Did the Queen not  'purr' when Cameron phoned her in 2014 ?

Was it this? Sounds like "England's gone blue, Scotland's got more intensely yellow" to me. 5 minutes in.

I stand corrected. I had better go and reinstate my license now! [emoji6]

Almost put my boot through the screen yesterday. They didn't even cut to a "break". The BBC doesn't have "breaks".

[Cowden Cowboy]

The BBC biased against Tories, Labour, Scottish Nationalists, DUP, Sinn Fein so at least it is getting something right

Yet who is refusing to allow themselves to be submitted to scrutiny now?

Johnson is already sharpening the knives for the BBC. We can also expect C4 to have their business model shredded along with a speeding up of the privatisation of the NHS.
Whatever Johnson says, expect the opposite to take place.

Rumours he's going to abolish the Department of International Development and make it part of the FO or MOD or whatever. If any of these things don't happen he'll claim it as proof he's a One Nation Tory, like if he doesn't inter the Romany and Traveller communities.

If you need any pointers as to how others view the Tory landslide then the enthusiastic endorsement of Victor Orban's Hungary should provide a clue.

[Granny Danger]

The BBC’s bias is reparable.  I will not rejoice in it being torn apart as part of a far right Tory agenda.

 

[sophia]

On Friday Emily Maitlis was scornful of Nicola's East Dunbartonshire celebration.

I'll eat my hat if Emily Maitlis knew anything of Amy Callaghan.

How can a broadcaster provide nuance if they don't understand context?

 

[NotThePars]

People still ignoring that revelling in Jo Swinson's loss is good actually.

[pub car king]

f**k the BBC they've been an embarrassment to reporting and journalistic integrity. They had a responsibility to call bullshit on the last 3 years of brexit, the independence referendum and the absolute shambles before that. However they were happy to be the lap dog of the tory government and pump out misinformation and skewed reporting all under the guise of being the world famous BBC.

Well look where that's got the country a Tory majority being run by a fucking shambles of a man who has been bought by right wing lunatics who just so happen to have a stake in media outlets.

Oh well off you f**k.

[ICTJohnboy]

BBC News and their reporting team, including Laura K, barely able to conceal their undisguised joy as the the new influx of Tory MPs arrive at Westminster.

I am afraid Scotland and the UK would not be a better place without the BBC - not everyone sits with their Labour, Tory or SNP bias-o-meter pointing at the screen waiting for something to come along that they can seize upon. Once the BBC is gone we can enjoy supremely bias free media options such as Sky, the Express and the National. As for the brave souls who take their stand by not paying the licence then the rest of us including pensioners have to pay more thanks to them.

Pensioners having to pay even more for their brain washing....f@ckin scandalous.
