BBC Euro Election Coverage

Post by Thor »

Last night I sat watching their coverage and was appalled at how biased it was. Laura Konesburg (spelling is possibly wrong) the political commentator only wanted to tell us how bad the Tories were doing. She failed to mention how bad labour performed and she never mentioned how well the Brexit party had polled.

She did have alot to say about the Lib Dems and the Greens and was quite complementary about them.

The BBC is a left wing biased poor excuse for an organisation. It's time it was sold off and adverts be allowed so we don't have to pay that awful tax any longer.

If you’re going to lambast someone for being “biased” at least learn to spell their name correctly.

Isn’t this the same person who was actually investigated for being so blatantly negative against Corbyn at one point?

The fact that the BBC winds the likes of you up so much makes it worth every penny. Long may it continue.

Sorry Esti sitting on a dream liner haven't got the time to look up the correct spelling.

Memo to self, learn how to spell the political commentators name before posting about her and her awful organisation.

Yeah, the BBC are completely biased against the left, Brexit, in fact everything. It's just a Jewish conspiracy to promote Islam and turn everyone into vegan homosexuals. B*stards.

Top trolling. Kuenssberg was, if anything, playing down the Tories' results. Also her and Edwards were really reticent, unless pushed, to point out that while Brexit Party may have come top, added together there was still a majority of votes cast for explicitly Remain backing parties. The usual centre right, pro Brexit bias anyone without blue tinted specs has come to know and expect from the BBC.

I’m sorry but if it doesn’t spend every other sentence praising Nigel Farage as the saviour of both British politics, and the world as we know it, then it’s biased looney lefty communist remainer traitor trash.

Some people in Britain really don't deserve the BBC. Like our National Health Service it is the envy of the World and one of the things that put " Great " in Great Britain. I wonder how they would have survived in Communist Soviet Russia or Nazi Germany? ( probably a Gauliter though ). I wish these slugs would crawl back under their stones.

True, but to suggest that the presenter in question is some sort of advocate for the left is amusing.

Who has said she was some sort of advocate for the left. The point is that being anti Corbyn isn't any indication of your political leanings. Plenty in the Labour party don't much like Corbyn.

These people really do though. Their perception is so skewed. Had the exact same conversation with my Mum a month or so ago. She said how much she disliked Laura K and how biased she was. Hallelujah! Finally something we agree on...

"Yes, I just don't know how she's allowed to be on there, she's so obviously biased towards Jeremy Corbyn..."

I can't stand Laura K, I always turn the sound down when she is on the BBC news. I find her to be a real drama queen when she recaps on the day's proceedings in Parliament and an irritating voice to go with it.

I know it's crass to comment on someone appearance but her mouth looks like she's had a stroke or Bell's Palsy.

Strokes do terrible things to people who suffer them, they are not really suitable for making comparisons.
