BBC look north


The Great MES said:
It's not just us lot moaning about look north for the sake of it, because their mag bias is so blatant. And people saying "don't watch it then", that's not the point though. It's really annoying when our publicly funded local TV station don't give Safc any respect whatsoever while at the same time being complicit with the murdering regime up the road.

Exactly.

I would imagine 60% of their broadcast area couldnt care less about Newcastle. They are a biased mess.

It is subtle though...when the national BBC want a local angle our BBC friends in Newcastle always paint their city in a good light yet not so other areas.

Recent example on the bank holiday weekend for national TV was Tynemouth beach and a farm just north of Newcastle. Could they not have driven to Roker beach?

Good idea. Would be making a point.
 
Didn't realise anyone watched it anymore. BBC local news has been crap for years, it's pretty much non existent online nowadays and Look North plus the rest are 20 years out of date.
 
Self righteous woke station BBC Newcastle say nothing about NUFC being owned by the Saudi state and lick the backsides of Staveley and co and that gutless drip that is Eddie Howe.

Self righteous Newcastle based and clearly biased BBC Newcastle show minimal respect to Sunderland AFC and their large fan base after an important moment in their history when 50,000 supporters followed them to Wembley and took over central London with no trouble from such a massive support.

They must be sniggering their collective heads off at their production meetings. Shameful.

We fund it. Not too much to ask to have unbiased coverage.

Sorry like but it's an absolute embarrassment they way they portray to be neutral. Our story this weekend has been in all the national papers all over the news. Yet our local regional news outlet think its worthy of hoying at the end of the show 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

It's the principal of it for me

The mention of York City's promotion first over ours was just plain embarrassing on their behalf.

Sad as f*ck for a supposed impartial broadcaster.

This...must think they're so clever when actually it came across sad as f*ck, embarrassing and downright amateurish.

If the shoe was on the other foot I would have, at the very least, expected NUFC's promotion to be mentioned before York City's and rightly so.

ITV was good, build up, match, aftermath, back in Sunderland, council perspective on income next season, Simon Orourke live at SOL……bbc, on the hoof 2 minute section as part of weekend sports round up. Absolutely shameful.

The mention of York City's promotion before ours must have been hilarious in their heads but in reality it was downright embarrassing for a so called professional local news outlet
