#BBCBias off the scale on #bbcbreakfast
The segment was about 4 minutes, the clip below is a short edit of a propaganda piece. No fact checking or asking for evidence by the presenter who clearly has her own agenda given this soft interview.
More details on this THREAD..
(1/6)
Bias highlights (1)
- Progress described as a “Labour think tank”. They’re NOT. They organise in Labour, have contributed to candidate slates in internal elections etc. And crucially have been vehemently against Corbyn from day one. No reference to this or questioning of motives
Bias highlights (2)
Progress person allowed to say:
- Labour has taken no action on anti semitism (this is patently false, why not questioned the way #VictoriaLIVE did?
- Bullying widespread through Labour. No asking for what basis or evidence there is for saying this.
Bias highlights (3)
And to cap it all off the Progress person says its not about the person (Ie JC) but about what Labour should do (policy wise). Progress and the other Blairites have offered no policy alternatives to Labour’s manifesto. This is well known so why no rebuttal?
McGovern’s bias and slack approach is unfortunately all too typical of the BBC these days. There are rare exceptions. Compare and contrast McGovern’s approach with the professional and well researched way Victoria Derbyshire tackles some of the same ground
This was no one off bad day or just one sloppy journalist. #BBCbias against Corbyn has been heavy and without restraint since he first ran for the leadership. See the attached Thread for more.
Bottom line: we can no longer trust any BBC reporting of Labour
