BBC News, WTF?

[Ihavenojob]

Just watching the news, reporting on the Hainault attack, talking about the man arrested for the "alleged" attack and the "alleged" victims of the "alleged" attack. You might at a pinch get away with describing the arrested as the "alleged" attacker, but not the victims as "alleged" victims.

What nonsense.

The BBC news is best avoided

News is unwatchable these days - especially lunchtime news. All about women's problems, disabilities, environment, woke pc bs. Last thing on there is real news. Preferred a gruff, half-cut Reggie Bosenquet giving us the news straight to the liberal propaganda forced on us these days.

BBC news is impartial, I guess you aren't keen on that

 

[ReganAndCarter]

BBC news is impartial,

Only if you're a liberal. It's the way you tell 'em, Notchy.

Nosenowt at his finest there.
They are not biased but don't report on anything with a RWR gammons slant which would give a credence to their views
Hmmm lol.

Same with "My Rt Honourable friend.........."

Rarely anything "right" or "honourable" about 'em

alleged" victims?

Do you mean this young lad and his family still need to qualify as victims?

 

[motorbiking]

I don't see the issues with their latest article?

Maybe it's a legal thing? e.g if the wording was "his alleged victims"

Correct. Libel and all that stuff. The last thing any news outlet wants is the threat of being taken to court.
Fox News knows only too well (ouch).

 

[motorbiking]

It's sloppy journalism. It's perfectly ok to refer to the crimes and confirm he has been charged or use the term accused.

Yes I get that
