Radio 4 today talking about the American ship crash
They reported china says its shows America in decline well really? Does it even if they did is it worth reporting
They ended by saying americans allies look on with apprehension.
Do they did they actually say that? Who say that which Allie all of them? Or did you just f
king make that up because I'm pretty sure no American allies said that.
Any and everything to attack the west and destabilise
To counter that just how much feckin' publicity did the beeb give to the 'American Eclipse'. But no, auntie sends reporters and crew over to talk to Americans whilst waiting for the eclipse. Jeez.They reported china says its shows America in decline well really? Does it even if they did is it worth reporting

FFS, there's an eclipse somewhere in the world every 18 months.
They are far too pro-American.

Not too sure about that in the recent year or so.... as they have been just about as anti-american as possible; against their democratic process of electing Trump, then a constant daily barrage of criticism about his polices and his character.The BBC are not along in the left wing media whereby they seem to think they have a duty to tell the americans who they should be electing and what their policies should be.

Maybe being anti Trump is being pro American?The BBC are not along in the left wing media whereby they seem to think they have a duty to tell the americans who they should be electing and what their policies should be.

That's anti-Trump not anti-American. The beeb love America.
I remember listening to the Jeremy Vine Show when Obama won, he was almost if not, in tears, and spent most of the show dedicated to Obama with music (A Change is Gonna Come, to name but one) and the most sycophantic phone/love in I had thus far heard.So yes, they are most definitely anti-Trump and pre Democrat, which is hardly surprising as they're mostly anti-Tory and pro-Labour here.

Because democracy is fine until you get a result you don't like. See also "Brexit".
Well done for not only missing the point but also swerving towards a topic that has been done to death on threads as diverse as best food in Aldi to electric cars.t in them to keep them going ?boyse7en said:
I remember a news reader years ago (may have been John Humphries) trying to get more "positive" stories in to the news to no avail. Unfortunately bad news sells, so any editor worth his salt will use that rather than a good news story as the lead.
Surely the BBC should be above all that, as they don't have to sell anything to get paid?Stickyfinger said:
But you keep posting the same st in them to keep them going ?
The only post brexit stuff I've posted about is to do with the legal process for amending legislation. Boring, practical stuff.t in them to keep them going ?It happened. but it doesn't pose a threat to world peace. So a bit different to an unhinged narcissist as the most powerful politician in the world causing damage to U.S. society.

How many wars has Trump started?It happened. but it doesn't pose a threat to world peace. So a bit different to an unhinged narcissist as the most powerful politician in the world causing damage to U.S. society.
Remind me.

I do not think it is JUST Him doing that ......maybe a "other" people involved ?
Well yes the wider administration. Good point.Holy st, did anyone else catch the piece that pases for "drama" on R4 this afternoon?
A public enquiry into an explosion in a school on a council estate - I've never heard such a steaming pile of sensationalist ste in my life.
I'll stake my life on the scriptwriters having a tick-box chart to ensure they included all the current "ishoos".
Illegal immigrant, nasty racists, budget cuts forced upon local authorities by the nasty central government, cover-up by the authorities.
What a load of reactionary bks.
