All I’ve said and quite consistently is that media institutions have contrived to erode trust to the point where more people than would have happened anyway have been pushed into the arms of those who would confirm their bias.
I’m not pretending to be offering an objective view of the situation. Im calling it as I see it. I would not expect any news organisation to simply echo my own sentiments. But the irresponsibility and the betrayal of trust have been utterly stark over the last 11 days.
If I was in control of the BBC I would dispense with News 24 as it doesn’t serve any particular purpose and return to the point where it is simply reporting world events on a regular basis (Breakfast news, lunchtime news, evening news and nine o clock news). The other channels can do what they like as they aren’t taxpayer funded
