Incomplete reporting
Jun 9
I have been listening to (and trusting the BBC) for decades …. however, I’ve recently removed it from my list. There were two significant events in which the reporters were negligent in gathering differing information/views from the “sides” which led to biased coverage. I’m broadly centrist, which means I accept that the full truth rarely comes from closing my mind to hearing opposing viewpoints. The BBC no longer gives me that opportunity. I’m disappointed.

I am amused by the Americans on here complaining about bbc news bias. This is by far the source i go to for news in English.
Get rid of Happy Pod and give us news.
