Emily Maitlis should be sacked- biased report on Cummings 18:48 - May 27 with 4707 views | Bazza | Guilty of breaching impartiality guidelines in item about Cummings on Tuesday's Newsnight. Disgusting that BBC allowed this especially from such a high earning individual(unelected). Polluting the airwaves with biased statements. Possibility of millions being misled. I'm looking forward to a immediate public apology and resignation. Never been so shocked since my mum told me where babies came from! | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

if she is telling the truth, why have the BBC apologised. amazing turn of events, BBC demanding an apology have now had to issue one themselves [Post edited 27 May 2020 19:02]

It's completely different as the BBC is supposed to be an impartial publicly funded broadcaster. It always has been a left wing broadcaster though. It's high time it was privatised. | ![](/images/avatars/25214.gif) |

And yet the left wing say it is too biased towards the right. What about national newspapers? How do you feel about the ownership of the media given that the Mail, Express, Sun, Times and Telegraph all broadly support your party. The is precious little support in the media in this country for anything other than the Tory party. So much for balance. | ![](/images/avatars/21649.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Was it biased though Ron? Was what she said true or just her opinion? I don’t believe that she said anything that the rest of us aren’t saying. Would you rather have an honest journalist or a PM who shuts down legitimate questions to people employed specifically to answer questions? If Purim behaved like this we would all be tutting and saying how bad the far left is but because this is cuddly, loveable, shaggable, Latin quoting Boris we just let him get away with something far worse than the Maitlis situation. | ![](/images/avatars/21649.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

if you want journalists to give their opinion, you have plenty of outlets to chose from. BBC is not there for that, for either side of a debate. Im sure you have been 'sickened' in the past of their treatment of Jeremy et al? BBC needs a massive kick up the arse; such a massively bloated/wasteful organisation that can be so much better, for everyone. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Really! The BBC is respected and loved all round the world,the BBC World service is listened to by millions round the world.

Emily Maitlis should be sacked- biased report on Cummings on 09:37 - May 29 with 3311 views | Sadoldgit | She was only saying what most of the country is saying. Andrew Neil is a journalist. Was he being “impartial” when he tore into Corbyn in their pre election interview? Or is that ok because it was a leftie being attacked? Look at the polls. Look sat the public reaction. She was spot on in her assessment. My local MP is Tory, even he thinks that Cummings broke the rules and should either resigned or should be sacked. The government is there to be held to account for their actions. Both Cummings and Johnson have stuck two fingers up to the whole country. What would be surprising is if the BBC didn’t echo the anger about the behaviour of people behaving as if the rules do not apply to them. | ![](/images/avatars/21649.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Whether biased or not, it certainly appeared to be her opinion. I don't want to be lectured on the thoughts and politics of a representative of an organisation by whom I am forced by law to pay a yearly fee just to be allowed to watch it. If they want to promote a political direction and shove it down our throats then remove the licence fee and they can be free to get on with it. Otherwise, shut the f*ck up. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

You want some one sacked for a minor breach of lock down rules lol, so he needs a far far greater punishment than members of the public? Now who is being unfair... Hundreds of thousands of ppl have got away with warnings, business eg pubs get away with warnings for the first time, but a government advisor needs to be sacked for a far lessor breach, get a grip.

Minor? Both he and his wife were infected. People who committed lesser breaches of the lockdown and were not actually infected with the virus are no longer in their jobs. Why is he any different? | ![](/images/avatars/21649.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
