It's certainly not perfect, but I'll take it over the rest of what's on offer the vast majority of the time.

And 14 years is a long old time...

FWIW I agree with the findings in that piece, the BBC were too shy about holding the government to account during the buildup to the Iraq war.

Me too, I will use BBC for most news.

14 years is long but the power dynamic hasn't changed: they still rely on the government's blessing in one way or another.
