That's a fair and nice argument. I do think BBC is a fine example of covering all sides of an issue.
My only complain is that sometimes the narrator's personal sentiments get mixed up with the factual reporting.
- hackuser 10y agoThanks for your thoughtful response. I'm afraid we still don't quite agree (not that agreement is necessary): >>> "It's not something a journalist is normally allowed to experience in this country." > My only complain is that sometimes the narrator's personal sentiments get mixed up with the factual reporting. The statement you quoted doesn't seem personal to me; it's not about the reporter's experience but about the experiences of journalists in general. And it's factual, not opinion or sentiment.
- chillacy 10y agoAll reporting is subject to opinion. Or as I once heard: editing is art because the editing process makes choices to bring certain facts forward and discard other facts. The best journalists are aware of that and try to present a neutral story, but it's inevitable. In this case, BBC is a media company and its in their best interests to be able to "experience" more of these types of events.
