British politicians know perfectly well why the BBC avoids the word ‘terrorist’, and over the years plenty of them have privately agreed with it. Calling someone a terrorist means you’re taking sides and ceasing to treat the situation with due impartiality. The BBC’s job is to place the facts before its audience and let them decide what they think, honestly and without ranting. That’s why, in Britain and throughout the world, nearly half a billion people watch, listen to and read us. There’s always someone who would like us to rant. Sorry, it’s not what we do.
@JamesMelville It's because, more than ever before, we live in a world of doubling-down on the blame game. Everything is everyone else's fault - the paradigm has shifted to finding the lowest common denominator to which they can appeal. It's not only the fault of the parties, it's ours too.
