What’s the purpose of the B B C nowadays? 13:39 - Mar 31 with 4210 viewssaintmark1976

Two days running the first item on their T V lunch time news has been about Scott Mills, someone I’ve never ever heard of. Turns out he’s a radio presenter possibly mixed up in some questionable antics years ago.

It’s the same with their football coverage, endless articles about Manchester Utd or others attempting to get various managers the sack.

The B B C used to be the go to Broadcaster for proper National and International news.

And to think that we have to pay to have a license to see and listen to their puerile dribble.

So you use no BBC products? You don't watch a single BBC program? Even on platforms that are not the BBC? And you don't listen to the radio? And you don't visit the BBC website?

I'm intrigued as i don't know if i'd even be able to avoid it completely


I don't watch or listen to the BBC. The only exception would be occasionally Saints commentary via the Saints website

I look at the BBC website for laughs and to see which particular propaganda I need to concentrate on next. Their football website infuriates me since they started mixing in the Ladies game which holds no interest for me.

The BBC is a tool of the ruling classes. Their products should go behind a pay wall or use adverts like everyone else not expect the plebs to service them so they can pay predator pe*os billions of pounds.

I wholly disapprove of what you say and will defend to the death your right to say it.

Maybe it's worth £180/year to stop them pestering you....only kidding . Do you have to warrant on some form that you do not use their service ?

Anyway, as an old options trader. I think a 50p per day call on the entire BBC output looks like a value trade.

That said, opinions are like assholes, everyone has one.


My wife, who is more patient than I am has rung them to explain we don't use their service on more than one occasion, but within 6 months they start up their threatening shenanigans again, so now we laugh at their circular threats and are still patiently waiting for that knock on the door as apparently they have operatives in my area!

I enjoyed the BBCs excellent coverage last night. No stupid betting adverts. Good commentators and pundits were ok. And all for 50p.
