What I did feel was unfortunate was your apparent bias in condemning only the BBC when the Mail, Sky and ITN also took the same approach on the basis that it is "taxpayer funded". All TV news has to reach the same standards of impartiality regardless of funding mechanisms. You shouldn't hold the BBC to higher standards than its peers.

I condemned them as hacks. I singled out the BBC, as explained earlier, because they are publicly funded.
