The BBC, the British Broadcasting Corporation, has acknowledged the network is biased toward the left, following a report commissioned by the company. A yearlong probe revealed the corporation especially partial in its treatment of single-issue politics such as climate change, poverty, race and religion, according to the London Times.
Snip
A seminar on staff impartiality held last year is documented, with officials admitting they would broadcast images of the Bible being thrown away, but not the Koran for fear of offending Muslims.
What took them so long to find out what any Fifth Grader would find out the first time he watched for more than 12 or so hours total?
*falls off chair* Jesus!! look at them pigs fly!
at least the BBC looked into it objectively .. can you see CBS/ABC/CNN etc doing the same ? Much less acknowledging their bias? We should live so long.
you know.. that is OK- as long as they are honest about it and don’t claim to be fair when they are obviously not
In other news, the BBC is reporting that the sun will rise in the East tomorrow, sometime around daybreak.
well gee wadda ya know
files this report under “no sh_t...really?” and moves on with life
*shruggs shoulders and walks off*
My God, was WWII for nothing?
BBC network admits it: We’re biased toward left.
NO SH*T , Really ?..WOW ..could have fooled me ...
I am beginning to consider that maybe some Brits are tired of Kool-Aid.
What cowards. That's pretty much what motivates appeasers of Muslims -- fear. They know that Christians aren't going to saw their heads off if they show Christian symbols being desecrated.
No, that's not good enough. The BBC is funded by taxpayers. They deserve an unbiased press if they are forced to pay for it.

And birds fly!
OOOPS!
Sorry about the spacing — don’t know what happened, but maybe y’all can chop it up and make sense out of it.
And now that they know the obvious, what will they do about it?
Right. But at least they haven't had the chutzpa to come out and admit it.
