Is it losing impartiality, it used to be held up as "The Best " when other countries seemed biased towards their government, are they getting like China, Russia , N. Korea, UAE. Are they getting so that their staff won't be able to say or do something against government. Our must everyone toe the party line.

Whoever makes the decisions for the BBC certainly seems to buy into some peculiar policies. Silencing the most knowledgeable and respected naturalist in the world doesn't make sense. They are happy to show his programmes about animals, but not his warning of the threats that face those animals.

Emily Maitlis explains BBC impartiality.

"It might take our producers five minutes to find sixty economists who feared brexit and five hours to find one who espoused it. But by the time we went on air we simply had one of each; we presented this unequal effort to our audience as balance. It wasn't."
