Both the bbc and ch4 are left biased to say they aren't is wrong. 9 The BBC do respect the established view too much, but just the BBC news is no reason to change the funding method.

It's interesting that those on the right think the BBC is biased to the left, and those on the left think it's biased to the right. Which suggests it's more aboutpeople's perceptions than actual facts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Normally all of them plus presnter are on a brexit bashing fun-fest. Nice subliminal biasing for the younger audience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I took issue with them when we first bought a static caravan for our own use and repeatedly were told that we needed a second TV licence. I suspect that little is done to actually track down license dodgers,and so they go for heavy handed threats from square one.
