“I love BritBox”

Glenn F.

Great programming top to bottom. I have been watching many mystery offerings and I am delighted by the quality, the obvious craftsmanship, writing, settings, in short all aspects of production. I only wish US tv was as good.

“BBC not what it use to be”

Shawn M.
10/29/24

I lived in the UK for many years and grew up with the BBC. Left a long time ago but remembered the BBC to be a matter of fact reporting, no opinions except in their editorials. Now every thing is an editorial, light on the facts but lots of opinions with very liberal leanings. Still enjoy the variety of reporting, it's a big world! Wish news outlets would return to journalism instead of sensationalism. Sad to see BBC so slanted.

Wish I could give them zero stars! It is clear that the BBC has an agenda misaligned with professional journalism and proper codes of conduct. Unwilling to call Hamas a terror organization, unwilling to print the truth about who attacked the hospital in Gaza (not even sharing all the evidence with the world). Please stop lying to the world and start practicing ethical journalism.

I used to be a big fan of BBC coverage but find over recent years it has deteriorated. It has very little analysis but rather concentrates on political tittle tattle without any significant insight into issues. I don't like reporters talking to each other without any real input from external experts.

Lightweight overall

Interesting topics and more international topics than in US media. That the site is British makes the peculiar point of view and biases easier to pick out than some US sites. Authors sometimes exhibit shockingly lazy journalism as they substitute their prejudices for easy fact checking. A real wealth if material, Just always remember that the British authors' perspective of US events sometimes is a cross between inferiority complex and penis envy. Site would benefit from opportunity to provide feedback to BBC.com and authors to close the loop.

I can't think of a more comprehensive, cosmopolitan news website than the British Broadcasting Corporation. Without this phenomenal website, it would be fervently impossible for me to keep abreast of international news on a daily basis.

The BBC has long been the standard for international journalism. At this site, we can watch, listen, and read live and recorded content from the BBC. (Be sure to catch the hourly World News Update!) But don’t stop with the news! Be sure to browse the History, Science, Society, and other categories to find rich content of unusually high quality. You could browse this site for many weeks without exhausting its abundant resources!

Its terrorists and fake losers with no life other than to terrorize innocent people while they live in a fake make believe world. People like that do not deserve to live by invading and manipulating life. Pig, I hope you get shutdown.

It is widely known that dog thefts have increased drastically over the last year. To advertise the fact that a working dog has just been sold to America for £23 thousand, not just once but stressed a second time I find to be totally unwarranted and alerts dog nappers to the value of these dogs. Totally irresponsible reporting. Perhaps the BBC would care to put out a public warning to alert owners of the potential that their dogs may be at risk.

To focused on ticking the boxes than content. Run by a group of angry women, than feel the need to constantly alienate 40% of the population (white male Brits) and run around telling each other how brave they are for being women.

It is a most biased news organization that pretends to be independent. Still lives in the old mentality of old British Empire. Only shows negative news of the rest of the world. I came to this conclusion after reading it for 7 years in a row on a daily basis.

Great international news. It is the best place to find information about important events occurring in the rest of the world. The US news only cares about things that affect the US directly, and nothing else.

A completely bias organisation with a left wing agenda, a company that protects pa*dophiles and hides truths. A corporation that bullies people in their taxes and send goons round to intimidate people. The sooner they go under the better.

Yes, BBC still produces actual news and content. This is rare in this day and age :) the website is also an excellent resource for news and education: do check out their English teaching content online: http://www.bbc.co.uk/learningenglish/

I do not need to see Emma Varys's cleavage on the BBC USA news October 6 2022. It cheapens the news coverage. Please advise your female reporters that there is a professional standard that women viewers expect.

The BBC always follow the leftist path when it comes to reporting on poltical and major world events.

They may throw in a lot of meaningless junk as filler inbetween which would be considered unbiased and factual, while also useless.

Unfortunately the British people are still forced into paying for the garbage produced by the BBC, when it fails to represent the views of the majority of the public at large, Hense why they disable and block comments when it comes to their content.

Hopefully as their viewership continues to decline, they will realise the error of their ways and make a change for better, I won't hold my breath tho.

This has been a lifelong companion for me. If you can get Radio 4 on your radio (or online) then it's an amazing thing to listen to while you are working.

We would like to see you as a independent journalism news channel, the views you put out or the news you telecast are completely biased depending on who IS FUNDING YOU. Change That - be an independent body and show the real facts and real news. I think you must be getting enough feed back after what Sunak has told about you.

Lucy had to be one of the worst choices of representation for the BBC. Similar to the Elon Musk interview, the BBC continued to lie and fabricate evidence in order to support their agenda. This is the worst kind of journalism, used to brainwash the masses into believing a certain narrative. In addition, the BBC carefully cuts out segments throughout both the Elon Musk and Andrew Tate interviews in order to fit the narrative that they are pushing. The BBC are a disgrace and I am sure that once Andrew Tate will be cleared of his charges, someone will pursue the BBC legally due to it's urge of defamation and false propaganda. They will gladly support the LGBTQ who are globally brainwashing and grooming children who are not even old enough to make decisions for themselves, but will attack the idea of free speech and pro-male/female conversations.
