The BBC's Charter and its Producers Guidelines state: ...'Due impartiality lies at the heart of the BBC. All programs and services should be open minded, fair and show a respect for truth? [BBC reports should] contain comprehensive, authoritative and impartial coverage of news and current affairs in the United Kingdom and throughout the world?? How does the BBC measure up to its charter?

BBC 'Look of the future' Feb 21, 2007 17:53:34 GMT

This is a 'tongue in cheek' piece, but I just saw this picture in the Daily Mail today, showing Frank Gardner, the BBC journalist shot by Al-Qaeda in 2004. The article shows him 'back on his feet' giving a report, after being told at the time he would never walk again.

What struck my eye was the background in the clip shown, and that somehow it conveys a taste of the future if the BBC continues in the way it does.

BBC = Blatantly Biased Corruption AND Big Brother Coverage AND Brainwashing British Citizens AND Breast-Beating Conmen AND Bloated Baleful Calumny AND Brutish Bullying Cowards

At present, the BBC is only answerable to itself in deciding its standards and coverage. How does it measure up to what you consider good quality, and impartial and unbiased reporting as required by its charter? All TV viewers in the UK are forced by law to pay for this 'service'. Do you believe that what is received truly 'serves' the society, - or merely increases the problems within it? Your perceptions of BBC output are important and welcome.
