The Beeb

Melanie Phillips on the Bent Broadcasting Corporation. Quoting former BBC journalist Tim Luckhurst.
While the BBC would never endorse one political party, its dominant attitudes are rigidly social democratic. Those values are so dominant that they are treated as virtues not opinions. It is why a BBC correspondent cried when Yassir Arafat died and a Today presenter referred to the Labour Party as “we”.'
It's a good read. [Bolding mine]
