>>Yet, bizarrely, even the BBC itself recognises that it has a left-wing bias.
Does it say so? Who is the BBC in this context?
Of course it has bias, it is a composite of the people who work there. I concluded years ago that it has its own bias, a generally liberal BBC one. It's always been the case that both Labour and the Tories and their respective supporters have each complained that it was biased against them and more or less with equal weight.
I'm a fan of public service broadcasting and by implication of the licence fee or at least of tax funding. Commercial pressures have not improved the quality of the BBC's output but that's my subjective opinion.
Paraphrasing Churchill, it's the least reliable source of news except for nearly all the others.
