@kksf1979 its true they report news rather than giving opinions on it. Unlike fox news, there are no opinion shows liek hannity or o'reilly factor... its literally just news, along with a few documentaries and other non partisan things.
4) Set program criteria i.e. the BBC HAS to produce programs in the public interest (ie documentaries/classic music/investigative journalism) and these are expected to have shit ratings. 5) No commercial channel can do this and must pander to its political slant. 6) BBC is accountable because almost everyone HAS to pay for it so Hannity type news would be offensive because people with other views get fucked off about it being bias.
The BBC is absolutely less bias then any other western broadcaster. 1)paid through a license fee so it is not 'owned' like Fox and in theory has no institutional agenda other then the impact of its leadership whose own editorial opinions will obviously impact2) Leadership agenda is less than regular channels due to the stringent appointment process 3) Strict government regulations on the standard of journalism (ie balanced, verifed, tone, nature of sources etc)
The BBC is biased, absolutely. However, the bias is miniscule in comparison to O' Reilly or Keith Olbermann's shows. It seems that that they can't talk about anything without being directly confrontational toward 'the other side'.
Sean "Daddy's Big Girl"Hannity is a racist punk with a with bloody booty along with Glenn Beck,Bill O and Rush Limbaugh fat ass ,damn is that motherfucker still taking drugs or just stupid.
If we had more people like Keith O we would be bowing to the Chinese right now. Obama was very impressed with the chinese during the Olympics, said they were so far ahead of us in so many ways. And we elected him. They call conservatives stupid? How about Chicago's Governor?? And we elected Obama....
No, from a common sense perspective. It doesn't matter what country you live in or what political party you follow. It doesn't really matter. All media is biased. I highly doubt the BBC is any better than MSNBC or FOX News, etc.
Point taken. Media, as it is created by individuals (or groups of individuals), contains the biases held by individuals. Perhaps the difference is in presentation.
@gcoste yeah coming from you tube which is 99% democrat bullshit i take that as a compliment. if most people on you tube hate hanity "fuxx" oreilly they are obviously doing it right.,
Of course it gets great ratings... real news never got better ratings than "entertainment" and that is all FOX is, is "entertainment". If it were actual NEWS it wouldn't get great ratings because most ppl don't have the attention span for news, they need to be entertained.

Fox gets good ratings cause it tells the other side!!!!!!!!!!!!!, wow fucking liberals should just move to france, or san fransico, then wait till the damn earthquake hits
"Fox Noise", that's so frickin' hilarious. Thank goodness for Fox News -- they make the rest of America's ridiculous news media actually seem reasonable.
Finally! Someone with balls axes this biased moron off the air!! Yes! No crying for Olberman here. Good riddance.

The only thing good about Olbermann is that he's funny. Can't say the same for Fox. If you want real news, watch the BBC.

Are you kidding man? The British media is just as liberal biased as our own. And Keith Olbermann is a douche bag.
trekfan92 3 years ago
BBC is liberal biased from an American perspective. Britain is considerably more liberal than the U.S.
...but nonetheless moderately amusing (Olbermann).
