Originally posted by Wisbech Eagle The BBC don’t omit any more facts than any other media and a lot less than some. They select facts based on their position as our national public broadcaster. They are always going to reflect mainstream,opinion and call out the extremes, slightly extreme, slightly, heavily extreme, heavily, whether of the left or right. Those on the left or right don’t like that because they don’t think they are biased. They think they are correct and represent majority opinion which is just in the closet waiting to be let out. It’s obvious to everyone. Except those on the left or the right. So, the BBC and Sky both would have received the court’s judgment which somehow the BBC chose to omit relevant facts. Now the BBC has this story as its main heading; it’s trying to coerce the reader into feeling sorry for the misguided pupil. Meanwhile nothing about the Mayor of Brussels getting police to shut down a ‘right wing’ conference which some of the EUs own politicians were to attend. You don’t see the agenda in reporting selectively? hats off to palace, they were always gonna be louder, and hate to say it but they were impressive ALL bouncing and singing.

Has this thread started identifying as something other than the identity it was assigned at birth? Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

Not so unusual I’m afraid but references to dodgy car salesmen in a thread about transgenderism takes it to a new level.

Sky moved it further down their pages after the initial story broke. It was replaced by the Farage story. The BBC therefore think that a pupil losing a legal judgment at a school that they knew what the rules were before they attended the establishment is more important. I just hope that their persistent over-advertising of that story doesn’t result in the angry mob protesting outside the school. Re the Farage story; you, like I had to go looking for it on the BBC website despite the fact that it involved a bizarre use of Belgian police and the potential imprisonment of the attendees, including prominent political figures. That shows the agenda that the BBC has and it’s leaning. hats off to palace, they were always gonna be louder, and hate to say it but they were impressive ALL bouncing and singing.

That shows the agenda that the BBC has and it’s leaning. Its agenda is to use its editorial judgement to decide the relative value of stories. Which won’t be shared by everyone, especially those who believe their values are underrepresented. No one was imprisoned. All were free to leave. I agree it was a bizarre decision which ended up giving more publicity than the event deserved. It does though indicate the company that some people keep, who try to present themselves as mainstream when they are anything but. So not all bad.
