BBC and supposition!

Sadly like other institutions which live perhaps on past reputations, the BBC, once the single recognised organ of news that was reliable, factual and unbiased, sacrificed its soul and our objectivity on the altar of ' liberalism' . The BBC is about as objective as Pravda and slightly more distant from the truth. I no longer bother but it will take large numbers of people to refuse to pay the subs for it to change - sound familiar?
 
Sadly the BBC gave up reporting the news years ago and just tries to create the news now...…. Watching and listening to the drivel spouted forth about Brexit confirms it, there was/is no news so the over paid "reporters" spend all of their time discussing what they think might or might not be happening - it would be so much easier if they just said, "nothing new, we'll be back when there s something to report" - until that happens, it's just a case of channel hopping or going out for a walk!
 
Many of the good western reporters are now working for the likes of Aljazeera - which seems to give a pretty factual and non biased news. But all news you do need to take with a pinch of salt and read between the lines. I use a mix of news feeds to try and get a balanced view - telegraph, guardian, ft, bbc, wall street journal, Reuters as well as many blogs and news feeds on business, but of course SD is the priority!

Just like you have always done.
