You obviously know very little about the BBC. To begin with the BBC is prohibited by strict guidelines from politically biased broadcasting as are all other UK TV channels. If Fox News was a UK news channel it would probably be off the air now. The BBC has no political agenda and is required to give a balanced view, if one political party is allowed whats known in the UK as a 'party political broadcast' then they all are to maintain balance. The BBC is respected all over the world as a reliable and impartial news broadcaster. Finally as someone who watches the BBC every day I can assure it isn't communist, its pretty establishment actually.
I can't really coment on Scientific American but from what I've seen I wouldn't call it communist either.
To say that Fox News has 'a political slant' is a bit of an understatment.  |
I see the UK media has as firmly a grip on the people as their German counterpart does. The EUSSR is coming along nicely, and faster than I would have thought, indeed.

"The BBC has no political agenda"
Thanks for the laugh. Do you really believe what you write?
"If Fox News was a UK news channel it would probably be off the air now."
Yes, no doubt about it. Diversity, checks and balance is always an uncomfortable thing to deal with, ain't it. BTW, have you ever watched FN or just...err...read about it in...err...your media? Just asking, because all the Fox News experts in Germany that I know have never ever seen the channel.
"Finally as someone who watches the BBC every day I can assure it isn't communist, its pretty establishment actually."
Oh, it's "establishment"? I see any further word would be pointless, but thanks for making my point.
