  • The article also mentions Nicola Sturgeon, who is also in a different party. All three political figures are connected to the main story. Because you like Corbyn, you think all reporting of him is biased if it isn't positive. If you were a tory supporter, you would also think the BBC is biased.

    I guess this is kind of the start of the next leadership campaign, so fair enough, get stuck in :)

  • I think that (2nd) paragraph is a bit ill fitting as well, but it is directly linked to Johnson's comments:

    Writing in Monday's Daily Telegraph, Mr Johnson dismissed Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon's call for a second independence referendum saying there was little "appetite" for one.

    The next two paragraphs - not so much.

    I'm not asking for positive articles about Corbyn. I'm trying to point out why some people would recognize hostility to him in the media after you posted:

    You can't trust the BBC, they've had it in for Corbyn from the start. They're basically a mouthpiece for the tories. If you watch his speeches on ITV he's actually a really eloquent, exciting, convincing orator.

    But maybe you're right. Maybe that's a perfectly normal way of starting breaking news about a different topic, but I've just got heightened awareness of it.

  • Do you think the BBC broadcast disproportionately favourable stories about leaders of other parties, in contrast to the negative ones about Corbyn? I haven't noticed them being much kinder to Cameron.

    Ed Milliband got an appalling time in the press, but I quite liked him. I don't think I've been brainwashed to find Corbyn uninspiring.
