If you've ever watched BBC in 1980s, the contrast couldn't be more stark. An amazing institution destroyed by modern journos.


Perhaps the reason is not modern journalists but click baits, incentive to make money, desire for outrage, rampant populism from politicians and so on.


Also bbc wasn’t actually ever good. People just have more access to information and they’re realizing what a shit show the “good” news sources are.

Not that the more information is always right or better. It’s just more points of observation.
