BBC failing to cover anti-lockdown protests

-

To answer a recent correspond­ent the BBC is neither independen­t nor impartial, especially with its news coverage. If it were so, and existed solely to provide a balanced news coverage of important events, as you might expect, why has there been zero coverage of the anti-lockdown, pro-freedom protests in London, and other locations throughout the UK, weekly for the last couple of months?

What’s that, you didn’t know there’d been such demonstrat­ions? Well that’s courtesy of your independen­t and impartial BBC kowtowing to its masters agenda. Can you think of any other reason?

It has no problem covering the BLM or extinction rebellion protests, as these are part of the establishm­ent narrative, or reporting demonstrat­ions against government­s in other countries which don’t fit in with the narrative, but protests against the narrative in the heart of the capital of this country are afforded complete media silence.

The BBC is simply the propaganda arm of the establishm­ent it was set up to support a century ago, and nothing more. It will promote the narrative the establishm­ent wants you to hear. That then becomes your worldview. It’s quite good at it I’ll give you that. The fact people can write letters in support of it is testament to its ability to keep the masses fast asleep.

But the truth can’t be hidden forever. People are waking up and when they do so in significan­t numbers the BBC’s days are numbered. And not before time. It’s a disgrace.
