Roachmill Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 Don't worry. They get caught out being biased (oh yes they are) the other way too. Have a quick Google into the flow of BBC execs getting jobs from / with the Tories. Dismiss that and take a look at their political editor. Then Robinson's background. You'll be sending them donations on top of your license fee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several other news agencies used the same wording. Are they all snobby too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davie P Posted June 16, 2020 Report Share Posted June 16, 2020 Don't worry. They get caught out being biased (oh yes they are) the other way too. Indeed. For every accusation of BBC bias toward one side of the political spectrum, you'll find another accusation to the opposite. Furthermore, and more generally, accusations of news bias are made almost exclusively by people who feel reports are biased against their own ideological position. An absolutely neutral position is not possible. The selection of which stories get covered and which don't, and which facts are included in a report with a wordcount or time limit, means that some information and context will be left out. However, of all the news sources I regularly read, the BBC is the nearest to neutral. Commercial news networks have a vested interest in discrediting the BBC as many see the BBC as having an unfair advantage due to license fee financing.

NullVoid Posted June 16, 2020 Report Share Posted June 16, 2020 Commercial news networks have a vested interest in discrediting the BBC as many see the BBC as having an unfair advantage due to license fee financing. Very simple solution Scrap the Mandate, Scramble the TV signal for those without a license and require Iplayer users to login. BBC actually has broadcasted a protected signal in the past and post digital switch over you would be hard pressed to find anyone with even a free view that doesn't support the technology needed. A win win for all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostrider Posted June 18, 2020 Report Share Posted June 18, 2020 ^The B.B.C. must be good at something.Yup, talents the Mafia would be proud of. Extracting funds for pretty much sod all in return, and protecting those on their payroll from the consequences of their actions.......apparently.

Watter Posted August 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2020 The BBC is really going after the grannies to get their money . The concept of a TV licence in this day and age is totally out of date where most people dont watch live TV but get all their news and entertainment online . If you dont watch live TV then you dont need a TV licence anyway . https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8598327/BBC-threatens-pensioners-bailiffs-dont-pay-licence-fee.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Posted August 6, 2020 Report Share Posted August 6, 2020 Buying a TV Licence is no different to subscribing to the Communist Party and other left wing organisations. A complete waste of money imho. Folk should realise that "TV Licencing" is NOT the BBC but, a Private Company that has "won" the contract to collect Licence Fees (and take a cut). Take it from there... There are legal(?) ways of watching television WITHOUT the need of a Licence. If anyone is really opposed to the idea of needing "permission" to watch television, start writing to your MP and tell him/her that you have had enough of this "extortion".
