Does "BBC" live up to it's reputation?

People understandably equate the BBC with news, which is why it comes under heavy criticism, because its news coverage it woefully biased towards the right. And I'm a supporter of the BBC. Its cultural productions are usually impressive and it has a right to be proud of that aspect. Radio 4 is off the charts superb. But, the Conservative government packed the BBC board with ex-Tories with a conservative agenda, which is why its news coverage is catastrophically compromised.

Sadly 198kHz/1515m long wave is ceasing transmission sometime this year. This was sometimes marked on radio dials as 'Droitwich' and has been in operation for 90 years.

Yes!

I like it.

As a broadcaster it's excellent🤗

Yes, the recent adaptation of William Golding's Lord of the Flies was superb!

Which reputation???

If you're asking about how they're convicting an unfairly large proportion of women with watching tv without a licence, yes, they do.

If you're asking about how they protect pedophiles by refusing to do a public inquiry into the Jimmy Savile abuse scandal, yes, they do.

If you're asking about how lazy they are that it's easier for them to force a nation of people to pay an ever increasing TV tax rather than simply showing ads - yes, they are.

It lives up to its reputation for "news" told with a left-wing, pro-palestine, anti-xionist bias.
More objective news is available from its competitors.

Used to as they gave the news, not opinion.

Great all round channel

I guess it depends on which "BBC" you are referring to....

It makes some pretty good programs 🤷

what reputation might that be? oh never mind i see now the subject of the post:. i thought you meant the british broadcasting

The answer is "Yes"!

according to lynda here yes they do

'Bisexual Billionaire Cocks' may well describe a minority of those involved.

'Brilliiant Bipartisan Commentators' is a better acronym...

Yes
