All newspapers and media outlets have their own agenda and most people are bright enough not to believe everything they read. Back in the good old days you could at least bank on Auntie Beeb to be unbiased. Those days are long gone.
Not so far @B3 but I live in hope Think there were some folk having trouble sleeping after staying up late with their mum 😂 there's been a few snide posts on a few threads this morning, but it's the weekend after all ... perhaps the alcopops had been broached

I remember seeing a survey on AOL during Brexit and 34% said BBC was biased towards Labour and 34% said it was biased towards Conservative. Sounds perfectly UNbiased to me. Maybe one's perception of the bias in others reveals much about one's own bias?
Don't think it's biased but is getting dumber, repetitive and less searching. Maybe they keep the serious reporters and investigators confined to Panorama and the like now in case we get frightened off.

I firmly believe the population is " getting dumber" certainly in terms of what they seem to want to see on TV
And of course if the BBC funding is being repeatedly cut when the cost of making programmes is rising exponentially, of course something's got to give ... 😠

Perhaps when there were fewer channels, people would have to watch what was on offer or nothing. This meant that they could be exposed to programmes that stretched the mind a tad.
Now, with hundreds of channels available, the programmes tend to be seen by the TV companies as the bit between the adverts . The idea is that the viewer's attention must be caught immediately and for just long enough to get them as far as the adverts.
