The Golden God Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 GB news has been coming soon for what seems like an eternity. Can it just come so we can stop with the “right wing c**t joins GB news” every week and I can block them all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawson Park Boy Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Would love to know what your definition of ‘right wing’ is? Most of the tv stations in the US are left wing - CNN, MSNBC, Bloomberg for example, with Fox being the only right of centre channel. In the UK, despite supposed to being neutral CH4 is incredibly left wing with the BBC, ITV and Sky all being moderately leftish. I don’t think there can be any debate about that but most of the people on here are steeped in leftish ideology. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is probably no debate amongst hard right voters that Sky and BBC is moderately left(ish)..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OAN for example are a bunch of far right lunatics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee-Bey Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 I too watch as the BBC hires a never ending conveyor belt of former conservative chairmen, candidates and members as political editors and come to the conclusion that they are a deeply left wing organisation. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SANTAN Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 I think the BBC in general is rather London centric and has to be relativley progressive which angers people on the right but the fact they are seen as an establishment state spokesperson seems to anger people on the left. They're both wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bob Mahelp Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 This GB news is just going to be a television version of the Daily Mail/Express, isn't it ? They'll spend all their time lashing out at their bogeymen....the EU/SNP/Labour/anyone progressive.... it'll be repeated daily in the right wing press, and we'll go round and round in an endless gammon circle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Starko Rover Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Can't believe DPB is actually getting bites on this I can’t believe anyone thinks the US media is in anyway Left Wing, the Democrats aren’t a Left Wing party they’re Right Wing but just not as Right Wing as the Republicans. The Yanks are completely Right of Centre politically. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Starko Rover Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Bernie Sanders??? He’s as Left as you’ll find in the USA and leader of no party for that exact reason. Both the Republican and Democrats sit Right of Centre and almost all US news is pretty Right Wing, claiming Fox News is Right and CNN is left is nonsense. They’re both Right Wing just Fox is further Right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Starko Rover Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 I suppose it’s all down to where your starting point is from?Only from your personal point of view, if you’re very Right Wing like UKIP voters or Tory ERG you’ll see the Democrats as Left wing and their News supporting channels as Left Wing. However if your stating to the general public on a forum that The Democrats are Left Wing and their News is Left Wing then no you’d be wrong. Your personal opinions doesn’t change the position of parties and News channels on the political compass. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's some through-the-looking-glass fantasy shit that everybody should have seen through.

NotThePars Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 How can the BBC be biased against the left when I can name one reporter who doesn't kiss the Tory Party's feet every day 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
