Should we pay BBC licence fee

[Daygloboo]

I think we should still pay ithe BBC licence fee but I see someone else has been accused of bullying ....this time on BBC breakfast..I still think it is great value for money though. They make quality programmes and are are balanced in their reporting. I think it's unfair that they get so much stick. We need a public service broadcaster..

But presumably you click on them, otherwise how would you know where the bias lies in the editorial content?

hehe, I am not cruel to kittens, my other half still thinks the detector vans were really able to detect unlicensed TVs!

It's on my BBC news app, I don't click on anything.

Oh bless him ,does he know Santa isn't real?😂

I’ve been to several countries, America included. For this reason despite the BBC pissing me off in recent years with its false and ridiculous ‘balance’ which just platforms wackos and their determination to have Farage everywhere, I would still pay to keep it.

No, I'm not giving my money to an organisation with a long history of tolerating and protecting sex offenders if the BBC considers them to be "talent" (bleugh). And then there's the threatening letters they send out by the lorry load. They can go and fuck themselves.

If they do make a good programme (rare), it will likely be sold to a streaming service at some point. If they made something I was desperate to see (which has never actually happened) that they didn't sell, I'd just go without rather than give them money.

But I haven't had a TV licence for years now, and don't miss it at all.

If it's funded by taxation how can it be unbiased? It's always going to be biased towards the current government who can cut or increase funding.

Well now they've/soon to be stopped paying Lineker they should have quite a bit of money to put into something else. Never understood why he got paid so much money

Then how do you know what the editorial content is?

I am his Santa😆

That’s not true. Loads of key programmes especially radio were moved. And you can’t blame the BBC for staff not wanting to move hundreds of miles. I can’t imagine many organisations where the staff would be happy about having to relocate hundreds of miles. People are people wherever they work and lots of he roles that moved were not highly paid.

It's there on the list of news items to choose from.. I click on anything I'm interested in, not drag.

This

Well, exactly. So you don't know what the article about drag says, so you don't know if it shows the bias you're accusing the BBC of.

Just the fact that there's so many articles about drag is a bias and I'll guarantee they're all favourable.

Just watched The Gold. It wasn't shit.
