The anti Independance media bias

[bluek]

Prime example -

Read the headline, then read the content. F*ck me, the first boy they quote categorically states Timpson won't raise their prices.



Then half way doon, their editor says "What would happen if Scotland becomes independent is that if the British-based retailers started charging more then new retailers will appear who will start charging less. It will be a dynamic situation."

So, things will probably remain the same. Might go up - but competitors will cut into the market.

Just how thick do they take people to be?

A lot of people are thick and do buy the tone rather than the actual content Look at the circulation of the sun, daily record etc. to see thats true - headlines and tone not backed up at all with content[/quote]

Stopped reading mainstream newspapers years ago due to utter sensationalist, base level style of reporting.

This accusation seems to be reaching fever pitch the closer we get to the vote.

As an undecided voter I have to say I'm unaware of any bias on any of the BBC tv or radio programmes and debates I've tuned into.

Can anyone who believes there is a bias tell wheres its been happening?

Since you are showing signs of intelligence and seem to be opening your eyes, here you go. This is what actually happened

BBC is a totally unbiased corporation that is full of dignity and decorum, much like a lot of mainstream press, no sugar coating or indeed leanings either way ;

Everything supporting independence is factual , everything questioning it is scare****ering. Is that basically it?

Or

Everything against independence is factual , everything for it is rubbish. Is that basically it?

Lol.

Neilo confirms earlier suspicions he has... errrr... actually nothing informative on the independence debate.

Wind and pish, min. Nothing but lies, then run to the next lie when you're challenged. You're a f*cking joke.

The papers are certainly 99% No biased, infact it shows exactly what they are like.

Imagine thats what they are like for nearly every story they publish whatever its about. Theres an agenda behind nearly every article published nowadays. maybe it was always that way but it seems more obvious now

The general consensus is that ther

BBC News favours the No Campaign by a ratio of more than 2 to 1
By Professor John Robertson
In February of this year, BBC Scotland reported me to my employer, the University of the West of Scotland, for allegedly bringing both them and the University into ‘corporate disrepute’. Luckily I kept my job. What had caused their venomous reaction? I had carried out research which revealed bias in their coverage of the Scottish Referendum campaigns. Most offensive to them, given their proud claim to impartiality, had been my finding that they had favoured the No campaign by a 3 to 2 ratio.
