BBC making news stories of own shows

[torres del paine]

What is it with the BBC making news stories out of flim flam shows like Strictly Come Dancing and Doctor Who, the final episode?

They're doing it more and more these days. Stuff like this is not important or worthy of being shown on the national news and is just more evidence of dumbing down IMO.

Pisses me right off.

Small rant over.

Complain to the BBC or OFCOM or whoever, must contravene the strict rules about BBC Biasedness?

I would as it gets right on my nerves, strictly come dancing is not news but I don't pay a TV licence so can't really complain.

To be fair they have done reports on X Factor's audience figures.

That's not news either.

But it's not self publicising either.

Lot of people complaining about this on the BBC website yesterday. They only have two "Have Your Say" sections a day on the site and a lot of people were saying that they would like to comment on something more important or newsworthy than someones pretend death.
