PaddockLad 17079 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 I have no idea. It's nothing to do with religion for me anyway. To me iIt's the BBC (amongst others) looking the other way on the likes of the Yemen bus bombing then showing Corbyn holding a wreath at a cemetery. Despite having lots of good in him he's an appalling leader, there's no question of that and he's left himself open to these accusations because of it, but as I said, it's not a good look for a state funded broadcaster seeing as Hodge's daughter has apparently only recently been parachuted into her position at the BBC.

ewerk 30257 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Why do you use the term 'parachuted'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 17079 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Because recently there's aparentlty been a lot of it going on at the BBC. Ex senior figures at the daily mail and sky news have been appointed and there's been an alleged shift to the right in editorial stance accordingly, Today on R4 has come in for particular criticism. I think it's fair to say people with agendas will try to control media. Whether it's going on to any great extent at the BBC I have no idea. But, it doesn't look good from where I'm standing. Am sure the good doctor gloom will be along in a minute to tell me I'm a fuckin wacko so don't worry too much about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 30257 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 This lady has worked as a journalist at the BBC for at least five years. The term 'parachuted' in this context makes it sound like she was given a cushy job because of who her mother is. That doesn't appear to be the case here at all.

I agree with windfall taxes, of all the things we really need to spend money on however, journalism should not be at the top of that list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 30257 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 It's not top of the list but it isn't the only thing Labour are proposing to increase spending on. It is a vital part of any democracy though in helping hold those in power to account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
