| Presumably you get your news content from Rupert Murdoch, the Daily Mail and UK News? |

| ▲ | GJim a day ago | parent [-] | | Don't spout shite. The BBC report is objectively what the defence stated in court: namely that their defendant was autistic. If you've a problem with that, take it up with the lawyers. |

| ▲ | n4r9 a day ago | parent | prev [-] | | For what it's worth, I stopped paying the license fee because of how the BBC sucked up to the Tories in the lead up to the 2019 GE. From Newsnight displaying images of Corbyn that made him look like a Soviet stooge, to Laura Kuenssberg leaking postal vote ballot information, to Alex Forsyth saying that Boris Johnson "deserves" the election. People say that it's subject to complaints of bias from both sides of the spectrum, but I've yet to see comparable concrete pro-left examples. | | |

| ▲ | gib444 a day ago | parent [-] | | She is not Political Editor of BBC anymore. She's just a talk show host as I understand it (though still on a HEFTY salary - £410k, fourth highest in the BBC). Presumably a very difference sphere of influence. |

| If everybody thinks you’re biased, you’re probably not biased at all. |

| ▲ | inigyou a day ago | parent [-] | | Look at how the BBC reports on the Middle East and tell me you agree with it. | | |
| ▲ | n4r9 a day ago | parent [-] | | That doesn't address anything unless you stake out and back up your position. Pro-Palestine and pro-Israel advocates both accuse the BBC of bias towards the other side. | | |
| ▲ | inigyou a day ago | parent [-] | | Objectively, the BBC downplays what the USA and Israel do over there and doesn't downplay what Hamas and Iran do over there. |
