BBC website this morning has "Trump warned by judge" right up there in your face.
If you want to find out about Hunter Biden and the ever deepening mire that threatens to engulf the sitting US president you have to go into the rest of the world pages.
Absolute bias.

Is it bias or just that Brits find anything to do with Trump more interesting than Biden's son

I would make exactly the same judgement if I was the news editor concerned.

One story is about an ex President who is the front runner for the GOP but facing a multitude of charges, including trying to subvert democracy. This is unprecedented and a major story.

The other is primarily about the son of the current President, who has had a traumatic history and troubled past. That slurs are being made by political opponents of the President which try to link him, but without any evidence being presented in a Court, means this remains a story about political slurs.

Should Biden be charged or impeached then the story would become more important. Right now it isn’t.

 


For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally.

To be fair, the old pencils up the nose and saying bibble routine does not excuse away idiotic behaviour.

To paraphrase the late Jim Diamond. He should have known better.

RTE in Ireland. Even more nauseating than the bbc. Both Trump & Biden visited Ireland recently. Chasing after the irish-american vote.

RTE were fawning and licking the boots of one of these and gave the other about as much respect as Ian Huntley.

Guess which was which ?

What? A pervert abusive person at the BBC? Earning loads of money, yet untouchable? Well, I never!
It's in the Mail so ignore anyway. Cannot be true of the most respected and virtuous organisation in the world.
You'll be telling me there's bias in the media next!

Love that - great post ASCPFC!
A rotten to the core organisation except in Wisbech's mind of course.

I am really getting my knickers in a twist today about the BBC.
The world cup final had one token man as a pundit for some but not all of the time but other than that it was all female.
Now - it was Women's football so why not - I agree.
However - men's football is littered with female pundits and commentators so why not have the same policy for males and womens football?
Then I turn on the WAC and three women and one man - why not two of each?
I am sick to death of their bias - and I have to pay for it.

This chap has a point but unfortunately it's not ITV or Sky.

The media often make money out of the public and rarely pay them so I sympathise with him. He wants a share of the royalties but I doubt the BBC got any.

Still he might set a precedent forcing the commercial channels to pony up next time they exploit a member of the public.

In all fairness we all do that. However, in general how can things that are opinions be fact-checked? It's more like suitable opinion checked these days. I want a blue tick and a verified on my posts.

We can't even like or dislike them, so you got no chance.

 


This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.
