Eating away at impartiality
Article Abstract:
BBC has started a debate on the ban of junk food advertising in children's channels, scorning at the advertising and business industries. It is argued that BBC will solely benefit from the anti-business bias it demonstrates, that if new restrictions are released channels from the United States will also be affected and audiences will be driven to BBC output. The anti-capitalist bias of BBC is criticized.
