I despise the BBC these days.
Notwithstanding the multiple scandals they've successfully managed to weather in recent times (Jimmy Savile, Huw Edwards etc), this is how they're reporting on Milton, by including stupid feel-good stories about neighbours helping each other out and posting selfies of Florida residents with happy-smily faces who are feeling 'apprehensive'.
What about the abject fear and anxiety millions of other folks must be going through right now? I don't think they're as happy-smiley facey as these two. It's obviously an old selfie but it reminds me of the false 'positive' narratives that were projected in different, creative ways by the Nazis and Russian communists during eras which actually had dire and deadly consequences for millions.
That might be overdoing it a bit but here was a time when I had a shred of respect for the BBC. Now it's just the wokest, most left-biased organisation with alarmingly skewed and irresponsibly false reporting, scare-mongering and spewing mis- and disinformation on a daily basis.
Lamentable.
Can you believe that UK residents, such as my family there have to pay a yearly £169.50 license fee towards this organisation if your TV/computer can receive BBC signals?
They aggressively pursue anyone through the courts leading to jail terms in many instances if you decide not to cough up and if you arrange it so that you can't receive their signals they still harrass and intimidate you with legal threats. It's tantramount to extortion!
Sorry this is way off topic and inappropriate but some things just make my p!$$ boil.
