Comment by LeoPanthera

A lot of commenters showing up suspiciously quickly to crow about how "biased" the BBC is.

In fact independent checking reveals the BBC is consistently centrist with a slight leftward skew, and scores highly for accuracy/reliability.

(For example: https://adfontesmedia.com/bbc-bias-and-reliability/ )

(And to be clear, this is on the non-US left/right axis. The entire US is skewed so far to the right that it's not comparable.)

Or you could just actually read/listen/watch for yourself.

What people think of the BBC is quite a useful canary for that persons own biases.
