Laura Kuenssberg part of the government?

[Sean2001]

Just listening to Radio 4. She’s talking about Brexit and rows with France.

Why does it sound like she’s part of the government? She speaks as if she’s one of them.

So unbelievably one sided.

Shouldn’t she be unbiased?

@Brainwave89

I think she is an excellent journalist. I see right wing commentators saying she is basically a rabid socialist, and left wing commentators saying she is basically another cabinet member. Actually she is neither. She gives good unbiased journalism and I enjoy listening to her and the equally good Katya Adler. For those who did not listen to it, their Brexit podcast was very good.

DP works for the Beeb and says the daily complaints log is basically 50% “the BBC has a clear pro-Tory bias” and 50% “the BBC has a clear anti-Tory bias”

People hear what they want to hear, which is usually “the BBC is biased against [thing I support] and I’m furious”
