BBC starts Blog

The BBC is a big brand that supports England's unique heritage and culture.

Every household with a tv in the UK pays for it. My last 12 month licence cost £131.50.

So when I read that the BBC will be paying journalists to write a "blog", I'm thrilled.

A lot of the current affairs and news programmes are biased and unrepresentative of the attitudes of zillions of BBC licence fee paying British people. A blog that allows, nay, invites comments about what the BBC offers will be exposed in a nanosecond if they delete the comments of those who write in regarding their perceptions of bias and inept editing.

There really isn't a need for another blog about the BBC but an independent and thriving marketplace attracts the BBC new product developers like toddlers to electricity outlets.

Until that blog is launched, here are a few other blogs that write about the BBC and most allow comments:

Biased BBC

BBC Eye

Busting BBC Bias

Blogging the Beeb

Accuracy in Media (includes BBC in their analysis)
