  • The gif of the two images of Corbyn (original and NN) still doesn't convince me that his hat wasnt altered beyond a change in lighting making it look more Russian. In many ways it's become a distraction. The BBC does, I believe, have a bias towards the Tory party, directly and/or its own leanings towards middle/upper class being part of the establishment.

  • If you look closely it is just "lighting"(well I think it is)... but it's lighting that's been altered to make it look like a Russian hat, against that background, etc. etc. etc.

    The reason the response is bollocks, is because folks referencing the hat are using it for shorthand for the whole display.

    Honestly, I think the motivation was most likely a joke that got carried away. But that doesn't change how fucking awful it was for a show like NN from a public broadcaster to pull that shit. Even more so after the spy smear. An apology would have been more appropriate.

  • No , it's got a bias towards pointing out the inept position taken by Jeremy Corbyn.
