# ask the BBC...lies..upon lies..
talking to a woman at work this morning, her daughter was asked at the bbc referendum show last night to say she was either undecided or a no if the camera went on her for a question..because 'there are too many Yes supporters in the audience'

Also they heavily edited out boos.

and don't get me started on that cunt Nick Robinson. he's nothing but a fucking government news hack

# I had the exact same discussion with a colleague. His daughter was there and she was asked the same.
I was thinking more about normal people rather than what the Beeb are saying. I thought I would ask on here given the general anti daily mail/Farrage stance on b3ta.

I figured the above image is a bit of fun and took it that way. If it wasn't I am sure I will hear otherwise.

As for robinson, I have ignore a lot of the accusations of bias on the part if the bbc and given them the benefit of the doubt. Nick was the straw that broke the camels back.

# If you think about it....
That's actually helping the yes campaign not against it because it means that when they said "we have a 50/50 audience they actually had a Nat one ready to boo everything.

The Better Together campaign should be the ones complaining but that hasn't stopped the Nats whinging and whining about everything else.

# I have thought about it
It was the same deal with a kid at a school debate the bbc organised. They asked him to modify a question, he agreed and then asked his original question during filming.

They are there to report the story, not shape it.

This may very well help the Nats. That doesn't mean the BBC are being accurate or balanced.
