BBC news

Thank you for being my one and only source of reliable, well researched and in my very humble opinion, very accurate and non-sensational news during this era of total global upheaval!!

FYI , I also subscribe to FOOC and The Documentary.

Special appreciation to each and every member of your staff.

Do not stereotype countries nor be afraid of trumo

There are different situations going on in all countries, however you publish “the same” news of some countries. In the case of Mexico, is the same news over and over: drug related killings. There are (well, not during the pandemic) festivals, museum openings, beautiful nature events like the birth of whales or butterflies sanctuaries. Do real journalistic work and publish a complete picture, not just one aspect.

By reading you, I get the image of Africa, the Middle East, Latin America, some parts of Asia, as sickness plagued, guerrilla devastated, corrupt regions, but the main problem is the feeling that comes with it, that “those people from those far away regions are so problematic, they’re not like us (whoever us means). There is corruption (unfortunately) in all countries (come on, read the trump news). By selecting the same type of news for some countries you take away the humanity of that country.

And do not be so afraid of trump, the news you publish of him, even when presenting the facts, are worded in a way to please him. Grow some backbone.
