BBC bias regarding Brexit and other matters

[Royal24s]

I haven't read over the threads here in a while, but I imagine that the usual suspects are peddling the efforts of the establishment to thwart the democratic vote on Brexit by offering an entirely unacceptable "deal" and therefore illiciting a situation where we must remain.
It's hardly worth arguing with them here, since they have certain advantages as we know , resulting in the fact that the opinions expressed here are not representative of the general public.
However , there are a probably a lot of people here who hold views which they no longer express fully, and even a few stoic characters who bravely attempt to hold back the tide by openly expressing Christian and libertarian arguments.
Therefore, I thought they , in particular, might be interested in this piece I happened to find on YouTube . It shows exactly the methodology of the State media in trying to tilt public opinion on the issue of Brexit and other things, and the way they falsify the reality of general opinion when they fail to do so, in the hope of iscolating dissenters from their dogma and starving the majority of the right to express their beliefs.

Objectively, we'd have to say that the film raises a powerful case against the BBC and it's continued compulsory funding by the victims of its propoganda activities, but what if anything can the general public do to make them accountable ?

BBC. It's not perfect but it's still a bloody fantastic institution.

Heaven help us when Sky News and The Sun are the only news outlets in the country.

No it's not ...it's Globalist propaganda on a scale Goering would be proud of, and threatens us with imprisonment
if we refuse to pay it's compulsive tax. Ever wondered why a TV that can block out BBC channels is never allowed to be
marketed.

1. The man is being visited because he ignored a court, not the BBC.
2. The people shown work for Capita, not the BBC. The BBC did not want the outsourcing or the contract but it was forced to do so.
3. Funding- if the BBC had to take ads, it would lead to a massive loss of commercial broadcasting. And if voluntary public subscription was used it would wither like PBS in America. That would be a disaster.
4. Sad to see the accusation of selectivity and bias is made by using selectivity and bias. The Marr programme is about 10% of the BBC political programming. The requirement is balance across the output, not on any one programme. Andrew Neill is right-wing and has more time than Marr; ditto Evan Davies.
5.Appearances..do you remember how Farage was top of the list of QT appearances in 16/17?
6. Brexit- the news is universally negative about Brexit. Would you rather the BBC actually does show bias, and omits stuff?
7. Ironic that Boyle appeared on RT, an unashamed mouth piece of the Russian state, which would love to see the BBC in trouble/
8 Brexit. There is a heap of negative news (not fake news) about it, as there is about Trump. Would you rather they actually DO act with bias and ignore it?
9 Recruitment- it hires intelligent people. You work the rest out.
10 Just had a month in the US and once again felt that such a great country deserves better media. I certainly would not want to copy them.

The BBC is as right wing as it has ever been. Look at the air time given to Farage, employing rug wearer Andrew Neil (editor of The Spectator and Murdoch lapdog), funding Michael Portillo's pension by sending him on trains around the world...the list goes on.

If anything, it's mob seem to be desperate for all parties to be centrist again as that's easier to cover and interpret politically.

It does undermine your criticism of the BBC, no matter how legitimate, if you appear on a propaganda outlet for a blood thirsty dictator who murders journalists who don’t toe the line.

Grouchy right winger Andrew Neil seems to be above the BBC’s rules on impartiality. Same for John Humphrys.

Even the supposed lefty Andrew Marr has written pro Brexit articles & has two different interviewing styles:-

1. A gentle back rub for anyone right wing, whether it be Arron Banks, Marine Le Penn or a Government Minister.

2. Disinterested & tetchy for anyone who has an opinion to the left of Theresa May.

Channel 4 twats like Jon Snow and Cathy Newman also downtalk to the plebs who did not get with the program.

[Hillman avenger]

So you think Snow and the rest talk down to you?
Funny that.
They are both guilty of reporting the news. Much like media in the US. It's the reality that's your problem, not the reporting of it.

Out of interest who do you think does provide impartial news? I’ve got a terrible feeling it’s RT (Russia Today), Infowars & Fox News.

Of course I wouldn't expect you to see the bias. Fake News or Managed News. Not for our benefit.

The BBC have always been left wing. The air time given to the likes of racist Nick Griffin and right wing Nigel farage, is so that they can ridicule them as much as possible. As for Portillo, he is employed because he is an excellent tv presenter, it has absolutely nothing to do with his political views. Why would it be.

Funny how many left-wingers think it is right-wing.
They can't do right can they?
Don't invite Griffin, Farage (don't forget Nuttall) and it's bias. Invite them and it's bias.
Just shows how good they under challenge.Which is, NOT.
