Media discussion - 2025/26

When it reports on climate change issues, the BBC's Justin Rowlatt is wheeled out to hector and lecture us. For balance, I can't recall the BBC ever interviewing anyone with an opposing view.
That's their 'due impartiality' guidelines. So they have to provide both views/opinions. But it doesn't mean that something so overwhelmingly agreed upon in scientific circles gets the same amount of air time from the people who deny climate change is happening.

How would you like o buy a nice timeshare?
 
Title must be back in our hands as theres a couple of Pep quitting after 115 verdict articles appearing.
But but but OPTA says Arsenal are going to win the title.

The sad media have gone from headlining Paul Merson's confident rants about Arsenal pissing it,
to pinning their hopes/trust in a computer.

Maybe they should fook the soccer panel off and replace them with a couple of ZX81s.
Probably be a better watch
 
Do Reform receive a disproportionate amount of airtime? What is your evidence for this?

None of those are impartial, one of the links is a petition that was rejected FFS.
I could link you no end of articles claiming the earth is flat but that in itself does not make the earth flat!

The climate change deniers are as bad as those idiots that think hypnosis can make your tits grow

They aren’t impartial but anyone can see Reform got a ridiculous amount of air time for under representation of MPs. If the BBC didn’t want them in office they’d ignore them to avoid giving them a platform.
 
I think the problem some of us have is that any attempt by the BBC to present views other than the ones we agree with makes us think they are biased. I'm all for journalistic balance, but only if I only hear my own views voiced by people that agree with me.
Millions of disenfranchised Brits not paying the license fee shows how unpopular constantly being demonized and gaslighted on TV and Radio has become.
 
I don't have an MUEN 'premium' subscription (who the fuck is that even aimed at? Reviews of tins of beans behind a paywall, LOL) but get a load of this fucking nonsense.

I was impressed when he asked Pep the question at the press conference - I thought then what the actual fuck.
Scrolling through his previous articles, he is a country mile ahead of 99% of football journalists. The boy does his research and doesn't seem to have a bias.
I agree that he doesn't seem to have a bias but he is a City fan and it must take that to write about us in an unbiased way in today's media.
 
Back to footie - Irfan is advertising himself now but fair do's interesting stuff

He’s a boring attention seeker like a few of the clout chasers who have latched onto our club
Wasn’t he the guy whose social media avi used to be him talking to Stonesy like he was actually imparting coaching advice?
 
Claire Balding was an amateur flat jockey. The BBC are an absolute fucking disgrace.
She only got to ride in Amateur races because her Dad was a racehorse trainer, trained for the Queen amongst others.

She was a disgrace when she said to Jockey Liam Treadwell after winning the Grand National to “show his teeth” and then joked he could get his teeth fixed now he’d won a few quid. She should have been sacked right there but somehow despite being as talentless as they come she pops up all over the place, as my mate says, “she gets where warm olive oil can’t”.

I noticed that. The Mirror group. They made a deal out of the auto glass game all those years ago. Their man got threatened in the Main Stand. It's been a campaign ever since.
