There seems to be a clear pattern of negative posts about the BBC. Certain accounts are at it on a daily basis. I find myself wondering why. Some motives for such behaviour I could think of are: - The BBC wrote a story that hurt them - Reporting did not reinforce their world view - They expected the BBC to be perfect and inevitable failures to meet that standard lead to disappointment - They found the style of reporting annoying - Perhaps some reporters were annoying I’m sure that list is nowhere near exhaustive as my imagination is rather limited. A cynic might think that something deeper is going on, for example, a systematic campaign to erode trust in the BBC. Perhaps such a campaign is not just limited to feddit.uk [http://feddit.uk] communities, as mightily influential as they are, and could be happening across social media. Such a cynical person might further wonder what groups, organisations, or perhaps even states with well resourced intelligence organisations might want to mount such a campaign. I’m not a cynic, and as mentioned don’t have much of an imagination, so such thoughts don’t even cross my mind. I’m simply wondering why some people hate the BBC so much. For me it, with all its failings, is one of the best public broadcasting organisations in the world.
