Bad day to be a Tory

To actually believe the BBC are biased towards the Tories you must be incredibly deluded or have a persecution complex.
The fact that the NEW director general is a Tory may even their bias up.
The majority of the media are left leaning. Thankfully the majority can see through this and were not swayed in both Brexit and the general election

You know you are right about my grammar etc.
I used to be careful and reread my posts before hitting the "Post Reply" button. But I found that was taking valuable time so I just hammer the keyboard and leave the rest for student homework.
For which I award you 3/10 for being unable to correct.

I wasn't talking about the grammar. I was talking about how ludicrous your comparison was. But I guess you knew that as you're just a pointless WUM

The myth that the BBC is right wing biased is just a tactic to push it even more to the left and hope nobody notices.
 
Credit where this due though. @Ricard19 , @HundredRoom and @Nobby_Barnes have managed to deflect the thread away from the Tory sleaze that it was highlighting. They have done the work of "Boris"

You've get to start questioning the moral compass of people who will deflect form the wrongdoings of "their" people rather than acknowledge them. Proper wrong uns doing that sort of thing. What sort of person do you have to be to deflect and defend these people? You've got to question their moral fibre. Something not right about them
 
From an outsiders perspective, and just viewing the BBC on BBC World and through their website, perhaps they do have the balance right?
If those leaning to the right think it is left bias, and those leaning to the left think it is right bias, are they down the middle?
I suspect that if any news item posted criticizes your particular viewpoint on a policy that you believe in, whether you are right or left, then you would assume that the particular media is a polar opposite politically.

Ignoring my sensible posts then? Yeah. It probably wise for people like you and @Nobby_Barnes to just try and deflect and insult. The truth must be worrying to people like you

How on earth am I insulting you, you were the one that told everyone on this board that you voted for the Conservative Party at the last General Election. It's a FACT, not an insult...👍

did you mean "your" people

I have to confess though. As Boris is an avid FMTTM reader he called me to ask him to help him out. I told him I had never heard of this SmallTown bloke. He chuckled and told me he was a fully paid up member of the party

But why do the BBC appoint themselves as the worlds self righteous source of news. Maybe that had some holding in the days of empire.

Those who wish to change the BBC only have to look at the dangers of a channel owned by the Murdoch empire to understand that the BBC is still regarded, overseas at least, as a trustworthy news channel. There aren't many left. Those that seek to fundamentally change it or accuse it of extreme bias Im afraid are either politically motivated or just jealous of its funding.

If they do, and again I'm purely looking at this as somebody who lives on the other side of the world so I can only use my experience of the website and BBC World, then they need to re visit their values and re gain the trust, in the same way that print newspapers have tried to in the wake of the whole phone hacking scandal.

Doesn't every media outlet (bar the Daily Star which I do enjoy reading if only for a bit of light relief) appoint themselves as the bastion of truth?

Don't worry ST - soon be the start of the new season and you'll be able to take a back seat as you don't post on anything Boro related.
I realised way back that you will never have a civil word to say about anybody who voted for Brexit or the Tories ( albeit that's a little ironic don't you think :rolleyes: ) - that's your prerogative but it's hardly surprising that many of your antogonists have chosen to either give these posts a wide berth or stop posting all together which doesn't exactly encourage healthy debate.
 
So. Tory sleaze again. Are we just so accustomed to it we ignore it now? Or have the rather dodgy Tory deflectors on this thread done their job? You've got to wonder the morals of someone who'll deflect from extreme sleaze

I just treat him as a figure of fun. The gift that keeps on giving.
I do wonder if he posts the same stuff on other footy message boards.

Terrible people, especially the first 3, but do we now castigate the employer for their employees illegal activities, as bad as they may be?

Yes, its a tax receiving entity, so in that case then if any Govt minister, or member of the ruling party is found to have undertaken illegal activities then the Govt or party should have to go through the same reviews as is currently being suggested for the BBC. And so on and so on for any other Govt department or entity that receives funding through taxpayers?
