Of course, we are all human and make mistakes but I doubt if you could find more indepth impartial news elsewhere in the world. And, if it does make a mistake, the BBC usually corrects itself and apologises! At times BBC Broadcasters may seem to take sides but they are usually playing "Devil's Advocate" in order to show more than one view of a particular argument. Well done BBC and thank you to Zainab for expressing their concept so well.

however the news & info BBC gives to the public is not even all that accurate or unbiased, and of course journalists etc are subject to their own ignorance.
