    Question Bias BBC/main stream media?????

    Does anyone else notice the riots and lorry driver attacks in Calais are not on the BBC's website? I would of thought 200-300 people rioting would be on the front page but had to search for it and eventually found the article here http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-kent-36578348 for anyone interested.

    Thanks to billynoguts

    Doesn't seem to be particularly newsworthy. It seems it's only really been covered by the Daily Mail, Daily Star and The Sun. Which is quite telling.

    They only made one arrest. Sounds like it was fucking mayhem.

    I was there just as it was starting. We were in the massive queue for eurotunnel along with thousands of others coming back from Le mans. There were unbelievable queues on the motorways leading to the tunnel. We finally got a train 6 hours after our scheduled train. You could see the clouds of tear gas from the holding areas where we were. Dozens of crs vans flying up and down the hard shoulder, sirens and shouting. People on the motorway were saying it was pretty frightening.

    General news seems to be getting biased imo. Was watching an interview on Sky with some CEO and he said he didn't see a major problem for his firm if we choose leave, yet the tv guy kept trying to put words in his mouth to the contrary.

    Why would a Murdoch media outlet like Sky News be biased against a leave vote? I think that's a sign of your own bias.
