Not in 2016 as claimed in 6.9 BritBox -
"In 2016, the BBC, in partnership with fellow UK Broadcasters ITV and Channel 4 (who later withdrew from the project), set up 'project kangaroo'"
Since BBC is funded with public money, does not this make it state-funded? Is not this a point that this acticle could highlight? 2.27.2.54 (talk) 14:43, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The very first sentence reads 'public service broadcaster', implying government funding. Also, 'state-media' carries a different implication regarding independence from the funding government than the large degree of independence the BBC enjoys.

What makes a BBC journalist more independent in his reporting than a CGTN or RT journalist? Obviously that journalist is not allowed to display information that is contrary to whatever narrative the State is pushing to show by virtue of him receiving his paycheck from the State. It is a state-funded media outlet by definition of the term. Chastizement (talk) 23:27, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Last section. "In 2023, the BBC's offices in New Delhi were searched by officials from the Income Tax Department. The move came after the BBC released a documentary on Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The documentary investigated Modi's role in the 2002 Gujarat riots, which resulted in more than 1,000 casualties."

This middle east conflict is obviously a contentious issue. This proposed edit asserting "Anti-Israel bias and antisemitism" of the BBC is contentious in itself. John Simpson, the World Affairs editor for the BBC, commented on the BBC's approach to conflict, "We don't take sides. We don't use loaded words like "evil" or "cowardly". We don't talk about "terrorists". And we're not the only ones to follow this line. Some of the world's most respected news organisations have exactly the same policy. But the BBC gets particular attention, partly because we've got strong critics in politics and in the press, and partly because we're rightly held to an especially high standard. But part of keeping to that high standard is to be as objective as it's possible to be." The proposed edit and its loaded accusation is non neutral, and also overlooks complaints from the other side that for the BBC, and western media, "Israeli life is deemed to be worth more than a Palestinian life". Inserting material that furthers the agenda of either side or discredits a news source, and the BBC is one of the more reliable news sources on the conflict, is a breach of neutrality. It is also a subject that belongs on the talk page of the conflict article itself, rather than singling out just one media source (BBC in the case here), in how the media is critiqued on its reporting.

Extensive external sources have singled out BBC for antisemitism. It is misleading to censure the referenced claims. Certainly, one can add other referenced claims that disagree, but our job is to work with sources. Minden500 (talk) 13:47, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Despite most government’s in the western world declaring Hamas a terrorist organization, BBC refuses to use that label. They defend it. This shows their bias. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-67083432
This section needs to be revised. It suggests BBC has right wing bias because it was “anti-Brexit”, “unionist” and its employees are “neo-liberal”. These are signs of a left wing bias… Helpingtoclarify (talk) 01:31, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
