The debate continues, albeit without the instigator

The debate on Helen Boaden's 'Impartiality is in our genes' article continues apace. CraigMorecambe's question 39 has finally been allowed for publication, presumably because it is no so far up the list of comments that regular readers will not start that far up. The vast majority of comments point out the bias in the BBC so I thought that I would highlight two that do not.

The BBC prides itself on its impartiality and rightly so. As it is the international flagship in broadcasting, the BBC has to set its bench-mark standards at a very high level. BBC Editors have shown their deft abilities especially in being able to evolve with technological change. Who would have imagined thirty years ago that we would have made such great strides in digial technology especially in journalism! The amazing search-engines of Google and Bing have enabled editors to have encyclopedic knowledge at the touch of smart keys in a matter of minutes: knowledge at their finger-tips. Editors and journalists need to have razor-sharp intellect to comment intelligently. The BBC obviously employs the cream and that is why the standards are so exceptionally high. Thank god. Balance and good judgement! Consequently the BBC grows from strenth to strength.

Complain about this comment

Well said and all the critics of the BBC rarely point to another service which they claim performs better.'

Are they for real?
