@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidDo you mean TV reporting? As I pointed out you can find a lot more news on their website than TV. Propaganda in the UK is closely aligned with USA propaganda. The omissions and biases are about the same.
What do you believe the BBC is omitting in its reporting about Russia?

Does the BBC report about the Nazis in Ukraine on TV?
@Metal-Brain saidYes.

@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidNope. I specifically said TV.
Yes.

Websites do not count because few people like to read the news. I went all over this before. Were you not paying attention?
@Metal-Brain saidIn fairness sir, I tend not to follow your posts.
Nope. I specifically said TV.

Although it's true that most Americans still prefer to watch the news, that is no longer the case in the UK. - Getting news from the internet has now overtaken news from the tv. (71% of adults apparently got their news online in the past year).
Please pay attention to the above.
-Removed-Get with the times grandad. - There's been a generational shift.
Edit:
Here is the rest on the report you nodded to:
'Around 500,000 households cancelled their licence fee last year with the number of payers falling to 23.9 million.
The fee costs £169.50 and the number deciding they can do without shows the increased competition the BBC faces from YouTube and streaming platforms.'
@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidYou mean some of the news from online. They still get it from TV more.

You obviously pay attention to some of my posts.
@Metal-Brain saidNo. People in the UK now get more of their news from the internet than from tv.

Like I said, pay attention. - This means the BBC link I provided is more accessible than news presented on the tv, negating your whole argument.

Online platforms have overtaken TV channels as the most popular sources for news in the UK, according to figures described as a “generational shift” in viewing habits.
More than seven out of 10 UK adults (71% ) consume online news, said the UK’s communications regulator, slightly ahead of TV, which is used by 70% of adults. Ofcom described the survey result, the first time websites and apps have moved in front of TV, as marking a “generational shift in the balance of news media”.

Edit: The difference between the 2 may only be marginal, but it shows that BBC news on the internet is no less impactful and accessible than news on the tv.
@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidThat is misleading. It doesn't say how much news they are getting from where. Besides, some people don't watch the news at all. The very same people probably don't read the news either.

Your statement "Websites do not count because few people like to read the news" is blatantly false.
@Ghost-of-a-Duke
"it shows that BBC news on the internet is no less impactful and accessible than news on the tv"
No, it does not show that. You need to prove they read the news more than they watch it on TV. What was the exact question asked?
@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidWhat was the exact question asked in that poll?
See my edit.

@Metal-Brain saidThere has been a generational shift in the UK with more people getting their news online. I'm sure America will catch up (eventually).
