I find it infuriating when folks claim the media is institutionally left-wing, as if it isn't mostly owned by tax-dodging billionaires constantly pushing false narratives around immigration.

If the media was left-wing, Brexit would never have happened and Farage wouldn't be on his way to No10.

If the BBC is guilty of anything it has been far too ready and willing to follow the right-wing media narratives pushed by the billionaire press barons, instead of pursuing its own independent journalism based on exposing and uncovering the truth – regardless of whether people want to hear it.
