BBC admits bias

[wankmaster]

Just read in the paper that the BBC has admitted it is biased. It says it is to politically correct, but there's nothing it can do about it, as it is "to embedded to change".

Question is, do I believe them?

BBC has been biased since the 1920s and the "political correctness" has switched a lot of people to other channels.

The thing about claims of BBC bias is that at any given moment you can find people who claim it's biased both in favour *and* against any particular viewpoint.

I agree, I dont know who they are biased for or against

It was in the papers, and I guess the story will be on TV. Basically they accuse themselves of being lefty politically corrects. Eg they said they wouldn't allow the Koran into room 101 but would have no argument with the Holy Bible going on the conveyor belt.

Any organization will accumulate a point of view, I guess it's inevitable. because it relies on the government of the day to fill its begging bowl there will always be a suspicion it is not being as critical as it might.

If this were a state funded newspaper that you had to have delivered and to pay for,we'd all smell "propaganda", cos it's a broadcaster and been around for so long we don't.
