Tim nice but dim pulls plug on Beeb career

He's run a car crash of an organisation that's got way out of hand with so many gaffes from the Trump splicing lies to the Deathto the IDF fiasco in the summer. Another CEO Doris also gets the boot.

👏 

Nothing more these days than just a Leftist propaganda machine.

Defund the BBC.

Any payout would come out of government revenue (ie taxpayers) so they may need to cut back on your gender reassignment, LeeAnne

Seems a claim for defamation in the UK is out of time (1 year)
A claim in Florida? Panorama was never aired in the US & the iplayer isn’t available

Nice try by the Orange Grifter but the BBC need to tell him to go fuck himself

If they ( the bbc) truely believe they are putting out world class content then they would open it up to subscription, confident that their content is so good it'd quite easily pay for itself. But they know, like we all know that without the licence fee there  would be no BBC. I personally pay the licence fee as my Mrs watches a lot of docs and I listen to BBC sounds so I wont be a hypocrite but it is fucking abhorrent that people HAVE to pay to get lied to.
Its a great shame as there was a time when the rest of the world envied the BBC. It would be interesting if the majority of licence payers cancelled their direct debits, they can't lock up everyone or threaten/fine them though I did read a while back that it was proposed that a tv licence be included in council tax which would be outrageous. Either way, the future of the Beeb is uncertain at best.

Those suggestions have been proven correct.  There's now no doubt about it., the BBC are impartial.  That's why Tim Davie and Deborah Turness had to resign.

I hope Trump does go for them for $1bn.  It's not coming out of my pocket as I don't pay the licence fee.

Yeah, it is a little bit crazy that.

Several on here have been suggesting that the BBC has lost it's impartiality - I don't think as far back as our .com days, but certainly for a decade, at least.

Still, what do football fans know, eh? Especially those from a very unfashionable part of town.

They do some decent dramas. The "Empire" based documentaries piss me off because they come across like the British invented slavery.

As stated, Davie will be retiring to a gold plated public sector pension now at the age of 58 funded by the licence fee.

These people are immoral.
Unfortunately there are a lot of morons that listen to their lies and will continue to.

It’s apparent you are waking up to the reality that everything you thought you knew was a lie.

It really is amusement for us all watching the penny drop on you.



Everything I thought I knew??? Does that include things that I’ve never posted about or mentioned and you just make up?

You don’t half talk some melodramatic nonsense.
Here we go, Deny, Deny, Deny!

Gotta laugh!
I’ve not the faintest idea what I’m denying, I don’t think you do either. I’m convinced you don’t fully grasp the meaning of quite a few words that you use.

You carry on spamming up another thread with your obsession though, don’t let me slow you down.

You carry on if that’s what makes you happy. You’re a figure of amusement for me.
