Bbc News Presenter Taken Off Air For Bias

[lankeela]

who'd have thought it? Why can't they go back to reporting the news instead of trying to intimidate people they are interviewing?

There might be an opening on Fox News

Maybe Krishnan Guru-Murthy will be drafted in as a temp.

As long as he's not too Guru-Mirthy

It was a program to review the newspapers, so perhaps allows laxity which would not be appropriate in a more serious situation.

LOL.. Douglas you're incorrigible.

The BBC ought to bring back Selina Scott. There's not a bigoted bone in that woman's body!

[perseverer]

If you think the BBC is biased then perhaps you should watch someone called Dan Wootton on GBNews, which I seem to remember was set up to give unbiased reporting. If it is supposed to be satirical, then ok, but perhaps they should not have called the channel GB NEWS.

I wish others would do the same. I am still not clear what she was giggling at.

come on, advice of perfection, this is AB for chrissakes

They had years of glorious marxist liberation to talk about, the beeb that is. Zim, South Africa just about the whole of A America and Yemen.... and then Putin comes along as a good Stalinist, liberates Ukraine....

Hugo Bachego comes out with guff like " Ukraine is still bombing Kyiv" - no its the other side, Hugo. durr

Didn't everyone think that showing bias was part of the BBC job description ?

[douglas9401]

Perhaps the first crack in the wall of rightonity.

[lankeela]

Maybe Rishi's first job will be to take away the BBC's licence.

[Spicerack]

Doubt so.
