When does it get to the point where our club have to go above the heads of BBC Scotland, and seek a meeting with their bosses in London (or Salford), preferably with a big fucking dossier of examples where this mobs bias, bigotry and hatred of our club, completely flies in the face of their own Code of Conduct -
Trust is the foundation of the BBC: we’re independent and honest. We’re committed to accuracy and impartiality. We work hard to never intentionally mislead our audiences.
Truth and accuracy: We get to the truth of what’s happened and make sure everything we produce is accurate. It’s not just about getting facts right – where we need to, we look at the detail to get to the truth. Depending on what it is, we make sure everything we produce is:
•Well sourced
•Based on sound evidence
•Thoroughly tested
•Presented in clear and precise language. We’re open and honest about what we don’t know and we don’t speculate.
Impartiality. Being impartial is crucial to us. So we’re never biased. We reflect diverse opinions across everything we produce, over the right amount of time – we never intentionally fail to reflector represent important points of view. We’re fair and open-minded when we’re looking at evidence and facts.
Editorial integrity and independence. We aren’t influenced by outside interests or arrangements that could undermine our integrity. Our audiences can be confident that our decisions aren’t affected by outside or personal interests, or political or commercial pressures.
