- Toshio 14y agoHave you noticed a pattern in BBC's malware reporting? When it's about windows malware, they deliberately avoid mentioning the name windows, instead calling it "PC malware" or "computer virus". But when it's about Android malware, they make darn sure to call it what it is, Android malware. In that case they don't do the dance of calling it, say, "mobile malware". I don't know about you, but to me this is a blatant form of bias.

- eckyptang 14y agoI've seen that before. To be honest, most of it is crap. It's cherry picking. They're always splurging over Ubuntu and raspberry pi. the only bias I see is pro war and pro current government And the occasional shoddy piece of journalism.
