Why is BBC going shit now? I loved their impartial coverage but now this is giving me second thoughts on what they have covered till now has been truly impartial.

Not sure if you're joking or not, but the BBC is always biased towards the current UK government.

That's not to say they are bad at reporting news, you just need to be aware of the biases and tendencies when reading their reporting.

Impartial coverage from the BBC, when?

The BBC hasn’t been impartial for at least 20 years. Not only that, but they’re the most transphobic publicly funded institution in the UK.

The BBC hasn't been impartial since it was established, it's sole purpose was to support the British State, that was it's entire purpose of being created in the first place. I mean it's not like there was never any news in England prior

Impartial coverage? More like Imperial coverage!

Brits don't realise how bad BBC's coverage always was. They covered for Saville, their foreign reports are a joke for most part and they are more of a propoganda for the government.
