Should the BBC sack Emily Maitlis?

[Bald Rick]

So the award winning “investigative journalist” (aka the one who skewered Randy Andy) Emily Maitlis has been accused of breaking BBC impartiality rules by wading into the Johnson/Cummings debate by using her position of the anchor of Newsnight to launch a tirade.

Accusing Johnson of blind loyalty, she said:

“Dominic Cummings broke the rules. The country can see that, and it’s shocked the government cannot.
He was the man, remember, who always got the public mood. He tagged the lazy label of “Elite” on those who disagreed. He should understand that the public mood now is one of fury, contempt and anguish”

And just for clarity, here she is ...

 

[PSQ]

Never mind Emily Maitlis, it’s time to ‘de-fund’ the BBC full stop.

Five years ago I would have fought tooth and nail for it. Now it’s no more than a shallow ‘virtue signalling’ embarrassment to what it once was.

Interesting you say that.

Our friend Mr Cummings is all for scrapping the licence fee ... so no agenda there then

And I noted the other day that the DG, Lord Hall has suggested that richer people might like to pay over and above the licence fee. Good luck with that one, I say

At least the Beeb are starting to recognise impartiality. That's a start. Get rid of the Kuenssborg too whilst they're at it.

Indeed ... and no too good at getting out of a car wearing a dress either

 

[Kidds]

Yes they should, and then go on to sack everybody else there too.

I know @Bury the Trash is on shifting sands the dirty old man

It always amuses me to think that, in respect to the adage about people looking like their dogs, Ms Maitlis has a Saluki at home.
Personally I think she should hold the blighters feet to the fire.

 

[MrNoo]

Looks like she could do with a few decent steaks!! The only decent thing on the BBC is Carol Kirkwood, that's all. I have cancelled my DD, just fed up with it. Like children

Everyone complains about Laura, right & left. So doing a good job

I like Emma Barnett a real bitch whose Dad ran a major brothel business. Don't know how she keeps her job but hope she does

Pic or it never happened

 

[Ashtree]

If you don’t like her views, I recommend you press mute, and continue to enjoy the picture. You can just imagine to yourself what she’s saying to you .... ?

 

[spin cycle]

no she she shouldn't be sacked and dominic cummings should be left alone........both made mistakes....but more things to worry about

IMO anyhoo

 

[Bald Rick]

Whaaat? Time for another look.

The bbc should be got rid of ASAP, they have been pushing the boundaries of impartiality for a long time and I don’t see why I should be made to pay for it but never watch it,the wages they pay are obscene and the programs are pee poor in my opinion.

Perhaps time for a drive to Barnard Castle......
