Has the BBC become a Tory tool?

Is she? I didn’t realise or appreciate that. I’m not being funny but is that just your feeling or has she featured on some ‘top presenter’ poll or something?

To me I was just a bit taken a back that this ‘news’ was worthy of comment, but than I suppose with all the social media platforms (and forums!), is there anything that isn’t worthy of comment these days?!

I found her ok as a presenter, did a decent enough, competent job, but that was it really, don’t feel strongly on her either way.

She's moved onto another role. Although it doesn't stop the thoughts she's was made persona non grata at the BBC because she was very good at skewering propagandists, not just the 'official Israeli spokesperson'. Which is handy until you start on the ones Mr Robbie Gibb doesn't want you want you to.

I recall an interview she did with Mick Lynch a few years ago and he told me it was one of the most difficult ones he's done because she was so quick with reframing her arguments.

she is yet another example of what is happening at the BBC. All the big names are leaving either getting a shove or getting another position. This is all on the back of those Defund the BBC loons and the last Govt demanding cuts. Before too long those same people will be moaning about how the local news is presented by a piss poor trainee and how the local radio sports don't do live commentary any more. I read somewhere the viewing figures of the reformatted Newsnight are well down since it went more "night" than "News" content and as long as QT ignores the LD's and Greens with a pro-Tory host butting in then it will be down to Tory K to do everything.

On a side note, I genuinely couldn’t understand why this even made the news. I mean is it newsworthy that a presenter leaves a Radio 4 news programme after 10 years or so.
It was the very definition of meh.

O'Brien, Maitliss... people leaving the BBC because of its lack of journalistic independence... bit of a pattern, not meh.

She’s fucking useless (VA). She gets these roles because she’s in the most secure of seats yet when it comes down to it, can’t undertake certain aspects because there’s a conflict of interest (spouse).
