S...The first Anonymous here is wrong about Maitlis. She told the truth, incisively for once. She is certainly not leftwing but centrist. That aside. There are other presenters of Newsnight, usually rightwingers. There is a revolving door into senior positions in BBC editorial from Murdoch papers (Tory)and back again into Tory Government on a scale unprecedented. One recent newsnight editor is now Sunak's Comms Director . She is married to Spectator political editor. All of them, including Maitlis dumped on Jeremy Corbyn all the time. The BBC is very biased and it is usually biased against the left. Boris Johnson has his very own paper (Telegraph) and magazine (Spectator) which still holds the editorial line in his favour. The clue is in knowing how mainstream media functions. Ownership and Patronage. Simple! As to 'news'.It is selective in terms of facts, language, position, and headline to reflect the political position or power relayionship of the medium. Hence Tory Sun, Mail, Telegraph, Times, Sunday Times, Express, and a BBC that is tied to Government by dependency, charter and appointees in charge who are part of those elites, who in turn hire people ;like them' for news and c/a. ITV follows on, but has less news and C/A. The others like C4 and Sky scrabble for a market share of what's left over - seeking to plug the gaps.<br /> Rosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03820800132294446009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-72633375630955719192020-05-28T21:36:39.313+01:002020-05-28T21:36:39.313+01:00@19:56.

Maitlis should present the news not be trying to make it. She is an over-promoted lightweight, okay for regional news, but not fit to sit in Paxo's chair.<br /><br />The BBC hasn't surrendered, it is for once applying it's own impartiality rules.

You must know that the BBC responds to Political Party complaints whether it be from Alastair Campbell and Mandelson when Labour was in power, or the Tories, immediately. There is a hotline to the Chairman of the Trustees as well as the DG. They do not fill in forms!The likes of you or I making complaints (as I have done over the reprimands to Maitlis) are likely to have to wait for months for a response at all, due to the sheer weight of complaints given the BBC's huge biuas pro Tory, the revolving door system of journalist and editorial appointees from within the ranks of the Government PR machine or Tory press , as well as currently a lack of staff. A complaint I made about Newsnight's biased editing of the hustings with Corbyn and Johnson, in Johnson's favour, took from last November to last week for them to even get it to the first level. I am an experienced complainer, having taken the SUN to IPSO and won the first ever front page apology fromn that organ, on my own, fighting their Ombudswoman and a team of lawyers, over the front page court Jezter anti Corbyn story written by the then newly-arrived-at-the Sun from Guido awkes blog, (back then), one Harry Coles, who is now returning to Murdoch's organ in 2020 as Political Editor (the moron). It is worth complaining to IPSO, usdually pon the grounds of inaccuracy, but when you win ensure you do some careful PR for yourself because IPSO likes to bury things.Rosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03820800132294446009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-78960013592232828382020-05-28T13:06:03.749+01:002020-05-28T13:06:03.749+01:00BBC "News and Current Affairs" hasn'...BBC "News and Current Affairs" hasn't had credibility for decades.<br /><br />Now it's just a tragic right wing laughing stock.<br /><br />This will not change in the foreseeable future.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-8445639387956550542020-05-28T11:49:31.602+01:002020-05-28T11:49:31.602+01:00The shits will relax the rules today and next week...The shits will relax the rules today and next week they'll soften the rules even further.
