Even the BBC’s internal report found left-biased reporting, but that correcting such internally would be difficult. This newspaper report posits the motivation for “sexing up” the queen’s photo story and this PM Brown/”thug” story as possibly done to bolster ratings. The way to correct BBC bias is through competition, not any internal reform. Is Murdoch’s Sky TV making inroads on BBC’s previously captive audience?

Agreed, and they will fight it tooth and nail.

I haven't seen any recent viewer numbers, but the BBC is such an utterly massive, multi-tentacled entity that I'm guessing it will be a very long time before any serious dent is made upon their influence.

There has been competition for the BBC,from ITV, since 1956!
