Rayvin 6332 Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 On 16/07/2021 at 10:00, Tom said: The trick with the BBC is that it’s political output is overtly right wing but it’s drama/fiction output is relatively egalitarian/left leaning but the right wing factions are happy for that to be the case because it winds the right wing lads up no end. “there a gay on the television, Beryl!!!!!!” More often than not it strengthens people’s right wing sentiments. ”you can’t say anything nowadays!” Etc Expand This. Totally this. I mean I would say this is true of society in general. Put all the cheap and easy left wing social stuff on TV while railroading the most right wing policies past people in the background, and claim that this is somehow 'balanced'. It's fucking genius if it's intentional, and I strongly suspect it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 24139 Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 (edited) look at something like the mash report - i wasn't a massive fan, except when rachel paris was on, or frankie boyle's new world order. these shows are as leftie as they get for a state broadcaster. i can't think of a right wing equivalent. probably because they're not very funny i would miss panorama, newsnight, the today programme, have i got news for you etc. i'm no fan of kuenssberg and think they should move her on. i disagree that the bbc's overall news coverage is overtly right wing though Edited July 16, 2021 by Dr Gloom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The kind of people bumrushing stewards to get access without a ticket aren't going to politely wait for ticketed people to get their seats before finding an empty spot. They'll grab a seat and if someone challenges them they'll act the cunt. Which means the people with tickets can't enjoy themselves.

But I do think the particular issue you referred to is a direct result of government policy. It also has next to fuck all to do with the piece Gloom posted. Expand Perhaps I should have missed out the mirror link then, as I was not solely referring to the over 75s issue when it comes to their £159 entertainment tax. That was just there to underline what a bunch of bastards they are as a corporation. And you are 100% wrong about it having “fuck all to do with the piece Gloom posted”. That in fact was my point. As a non-license holder I cannot read/watch that piece because if I did I would be breaking the law and liable to a hefty fine. FFS man things aren’t always so obvious.

Expand Is this a gang bang like? I don’t care for the bbc. Pardon fucking me. As I said earlier I can’t be arsed to write an essay, but I will say this: A state run broadcaster that charges citizens a tax to watch ANY live television broadcast, not just from its own channels is a fucking disgrace. But hey the quality is oh so worth the 3.5 billion or whatever it is these fuckers fleece ordinary folk for on a yearly basis. Once again, pardon me for deviating from this strange pro bbc bullshit love in. Oh aye and btw does not having a licence exclude me from being allowed an opinion?
