GersInCanada 7,775 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 These statements followed by apologies are put out simply to damage the club. BBC Scotland knows this and reporters bias are overlooked. There must be enough of these incidents by now for the clubs lawyers to make a compelling case to the BBC and failing suitable action from them to go to court.

The way things are going with regards to peoples feelings about the licence fee, it may not be around too much longer anyway. In the good old days when the UK BBC was fair and impartial then people were willing to pay, however the obvious right on, lefty attitude of the BBC is becoming more and more obvious by the day, and people (especially those with different political views) will not be prepared to publicly fund a politically motivated and biased national broadcaster.

To Be A Ranger 4,032 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 The views expressed in the article are those of the contributor and not the BBC. This is a common excuse of the BBC. They don't care about the integrity of their employees or what they write. All they want is hits. They just want high numbers of people viewing. BBC Scotland is Biased and Bigoted. There's no chance of winning a court prosection against a journo just because of something he wrote. The only thing that will make them think twice about reporting lies is losing their jobs. And that is not going to happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reformation Bear 6,453 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I wonder if Club 1872 has developed a strategy for dealing with Rangers-related BBC biased etc reporting (or any media bias etc reporting for that matter). Do they just wait until an incident happens then try to deal with each incident on the facts / opinions of its own case? What we seem to me to get is reporting bias etc incident after incident with each taken on its own and when the dust settles everybody waits for the next (inevitable) incident and off we go again. If they are not already doing so maybe Club 1872 - or even better Rangers media team - could perhaps be collating details of each incident that's taken place in recent times and registering the details, including responses and actions taken, on a website so that the cumulative whole and complete picture is readily accessible and there as evidence for all to see. Clearly details of the individual incidents could be gathered up by interested persons to get the same picture but if the work was done by 1872 or the Club's media team then there would be a single source of Rangers-authenticated detail of each incident and the outcome. Why do this? Well maybe there is significantly more weight to be applied against the BBC if the latest incident is put alongside previous incidents so that the cumulative factual case is visible not only to Rangers, Club 1872 and the Support but to the wider broadcasting regulators and to the wider world. That way maybe more influence might be applied to cause the BBC to amend its ways and clean up its reporting act for all things Rangers. Right now I think we are in a media-dominated 'divide and conquer' way of working where each incident gets dealt with as a single incident with a mild knuckle-rap as a consequence. Which is no incentive on the BBC or its reporting staff to amend their reporting ways. They simply take the small hit and move on to generating the next incident and off we go again. Create the cumulative record, make it publicly available (taking care to avoid libel etc legal pitfalls) and then call up the cumulative history into the public domain every time a new incident happens. The sanctions on those creating the anti-Rangers false etc reporting might then become more meaningful and the sanctions against the BBC itself might become far more effective. Maybe that's all too much like hard work. Or not in the spirit of past eras of dignified silence. Or maybe the Club and its media team and Club 1872 would just prefer to take each case on its own merits and let the past be the past and of no relevance to current or future cases.
