Re: the Beeb don't do anything that is or requires a natural monopoly
However, the BBC is required by law to be impartial.
Is that why its agenda is endless faux diversity handwringing, that it doesn't practice itself? Or why R4 "comedy" programmes are platforms for unfunny twerps whose repertoire of jokes are all about the Conservative party (which is a joke, just not a funny one)? Or why it hasn't done a single piece of big ticket investigative journalism since the Gilligan/Kelly affair, where the government put the screws on the BBC, who caved in like the bunch of lightweights they are?
The Beeb is about as impartial as Fox News or Russia Today, but unlike those two there's a big gulf between the majority who fund it, and the Liberal People's Republic of Islington for whom the Beeb speak.
