Virtuous Broadcasting

In our mother of democracies, the only legitimate function of journalism is either to praise the Government or to hold it sternly to account for not being right-wing enough. Accordingly, the new broom at the BBC is determined to sweep away all signs of political bias, such as the metropolitan elitist prejudice in favour of treating wogs and pooftahs as though they were normal human beings. It remains as yet unclear whether BBC journalists will be permitted to demonstrate bias in favour of corporations, landlords, wog-bombing, family values, the Church of England or other non-controversial British institutions. Fortunately, the new broom is himself a failed Conservative councillor and sometime deputy chairbeing of a local party cadre, so his own innate immunity from political bias is entirely beyond question.
