... And there lies the flaw in your argument. The accusations of bias are valid and factually provable. So, of course they don't need someone standing up to them "like a hole in the head". But we. the people, do.

Persons who bring the BBC's bias into the open (and who correct editorial bias when reading the news) are not to be criticised, especially in the context of the BBC Charter Renewal.

Why should the Charter be renewed for such a biased, rotten organisation? There needs to be a clear-out of the bias elements, the LGBTQ+ desk, the top management who have done nothing about this; the prosecution on public office grounds of those bustards who falsified the Trump footage. The BBC is institutionally rotten as it stands

As a footnote, it doesn't help that Boris, Mr Honesty himself (!), should be a torch leader in fighting the BBC.

Quite right. I couldn't find mention of this huge story on the BBC News web site. Kuenssberg sort of mentioned it in her programme today when interviewing Lisa Nandy - who said she had complete confidence in the BBC Chairman and the BBC DG in getting this matter sorted.
