So, does Jezza know what time the Queens speech is on?

is it just media bias?

I dont watch it either...so what, nor do i wear union jack boxer shorts and stand up and salute as it comes on Alf Garnett style, you could say its biased as in it focuses on all these stupid little negative things that matter not one jot instead of his manifesto and things he says he will do.

I don't care if he watches it or not, just the fact he's been caught out in a lie, again.

..... the left will always claim the media is bias towards the right and vice versa, what are your own observations ?

Which is why an independent academic study* would be useful, although such studies in the past have shown a bias to the right across all media.

 

(*Of course the right are also suspicious of academics and also view them as a bunch of lefties! 😳)

Ah mel, the Independant itself could be argued to be bias towards labour, it is generally left leaning, maybe even the Loughborough uni academics are too, like the Mirror, the Guardian, Channel 4, the BBC and much of the left leaning social media outlets..... the left will always claim the media is bias towards the right and vice versa, what are your own observations ?

In 2015 The Independent campaigned for a Conservative / Liberal coalition Government. Not sure about the 2017 election.

The BBC left leaning???  Not sure if you're repeating a trope from the 1980s, but this last few years, even according to Conservative supporters, the BBC is generally hostile to the left.

So what do you reckon about the Times, Sun, Mail, Express, Telegraph etc?
