And most other countries manage without levying a fee on their populace for a national broadcaster, which might think it is the envy of the World for providing fair news coverage, but we all know better.

You might think that. But they're not. They pay higher salaries for less output.

And do it secretly because they are not open to public scrutiny.

For many many years I did genuinely believe that the BBC offered an unbiased / impartial News service, sadly that is no longer the way we feel at this point in time. It is also the case albeit for no obvious reason that we watch fewer BBC programs these days, having SKY helps I suppose as we can skip past all the adverts in the Commercial Stations.
