If you're trying to make a reference that he doesn't agree with a state-owned news channel then I think you will be disappointed. But the BBC have definitely been spinning a few things lately, towards left and right-wing politicians, but it needs to stay. Vital for democracy. Just needs some more things in place to ensure it stays independent and non-partisan.

the beeb and many overrated presenters , like sky too, have been arrogant and complacent for years....and their programme making is mostly crap....they offer no real opportunities to writers as in the past and all their stuff is churned out using the exact same formula........zzzzzzzzz.......skinner made her look a right tool....hes telling her about getting rid of spin ....and right at the end she twists his words into something else and basically lies just to get a cheap headline...tabloid trash is not what the bbc is meant to be

"Stays" independent? It's a bit late for that, the BBC is constantly showing political bias. As a couple of examples, during the Independence referrendum, they were (very) heavily "pro-Union", including BBC Scotland. Another example; they are always heavily pro-Royal.

This bias is present in their news reporting and factualy programmes, and also frequently spills over into BBC-produced fiction (EastEnders, Doctor Who, etc.).

Well, if you would prefer a rephrase - 'make' the BBC impartial.
