Maybe it has, but I still watch and listen to it and think it's broadly neutral and there would be millions throughout the world who would compare it to what happens with their countries media and wonder what we were moaning about. That said, I did notice this morning on Radio 5's 9 o clock news bulletin that the section on Labour's plans for the English NHS ended with a mention of the Government dismissing them as a shambles, whereas the mention which followed about the Conservative proposals regarding worker's right did not have a response from another party - that can't be right can it?
