Turns out Auntie Beeb isn’t the sweet, impartial granny we were promised—she’s more like that relative who swears they “don’t do politics” right before launching into a 30-minute Brexit monologue. After the latest Panorama episode twisted Trump’s words harder than a pretzel at Oktoberfest, the question isn’t if the BBC is biased—it’s how long it’s been pulling the strings while wearing a mask of neutrality.

🎭 “Balanced Reporting” Now Brought to You by Optical Illusion

Once a global gold standard for journalism, the BBC has apparently traded its moral compass for a weather vane that spins whichever way the establishment wind blows. The Panorama exposé on Trump didn’t just miss the mark—it made the mark, gaslit it, then asked it why it hated democracy.

We’re talking heavy edits, voiceovers that imply guilt, and production techniques slick enough to make a dictator look like a dog walker. The agenda? Obvious. The nuance? Missing. The subtlety? As dead as BBC Three’s ratings.

But hey, this isn’t their first rodeo. From Brexit to Corbyn, lockdowns to Gaza, the BBC has somehow managed to become the nation’s most polite propaganda dispenser. With a license fee, no less! You’re literally paying to be condescended to by people in North Face jackets who use “problematic” as a full sentence.

And don’t even ask about the diversity of thought in their newsroom—unless you’re counting how many shades of beige can agree that actually, the working class just doesn’t understand politics.

So what else is festering in the archives? What other narratives got polished and re-packaged until the truth was so diluted it needed subtitles and a trigger warning?
