'It is worth stressing that we are not aware of any ´óÏó´«Ã½ programme'

Just wondering, but how might ´óÏó´«Ã½ interviewers treat such a statement in mitigation by those they deal with?

I take it nobody believes the article. That is a shame as I am sure that it is not the ´óÏó´«Ã½ amongst the "British" media empires that has the skeletons in the closet.

Hard to assess. Maybe folk simply sought clarifications as some areas were raised that seemed 'vague'. Guess we'll never know.

That is a shame

In more ways then one.

Without doubt. But it is one whose stakeholders are required to pay, and hence support it, no matter what. Hence obliterating any possibly valid questions or feedback seems... 'interesting'.

The ´óÏó´«Ã½ often deletes comments they simply don't like...
What can we expect from their reporting? Or their elite journalists?
Why do they need private investigators when they have MI5, is vetting applications all they did for almost fifty years?

Moderators, since you don't seem to like what the little people have to say, perhaps you should get a new readership.

Surely when you have prima facie evidence of criminal activity you should go to the police and not risk ongoing criminal behaviour or allowing it to escalate by delaying a criminal ivestigation ?

Why does the public have to pay to be insulted and condescended to??? Time for the Beeb to lose its charter and take to the commercial media waters like everyone else it the world. Sink or swim, Auntie, sink or swim!!!

I think now is a good time to stop paying the Telly Tax. The ´óÏó´«Ã½ are not worth the money. They despise the people who fund them; they ignore them or condescend to them. And still expect them to fork out a huge amount of money to them purely for the right to have a telly in their house. Well, no more ´óÏó´«Ã½, until you give me value for money!

I can't see what the problem is supposed to be. News materials have to be researched; why is it that if you use an in-house fact-checker or researcher, that's fine, but if you employ someone for their skills in obtaining, checking and interpreting data - which is what private detectives do - suddenly the sky is falling?

I agree it's not the ´óÏó´«Ã½ that has the skeletons in the closet. The Daily Telegraph, News of the World, sometimes the Mail, rival the Soviet press in their use of underhand methods and contempt for the freedom and privacy of the individual once treasured in the West.

Giving away your political leanings methinks?, you should also have added to your list....

The Guardian, Daily Star and Independent.

In fact the Guardian has one of the worst records according to the press complaints authority.

Nothing wrong with using private eyes to help clarify the TRUE facts.
Companies,politicians and private individuals use them all the time.

The ´óÏó´«Ã½ may very well not use P.Is for political purposes, but it is very obvious that there is a strong left wing leaning within its corridors. This is totally unacceptable as they are totally financed publicly which should ensure a totally unbiased & balanced view of all subjects.

Seems like if you want the truth today on stories involving corrupt banks or dishonest politicians you have to use private investigators and other investigative tactics. If find the ´óÏó´«Ã½'s coverage fair and balanced and think this is good use of the public's money.

Interesting to note what either doesn't make it through pre-mod, or is ditched on referral on this thread. And what does.

Maybe you could post in parts to identify which part of your whole post the mods rejected or maybe just hint at what was rejected.

Rarely have I read anything quite as pompous.

How much of our licence money is the ´óÏó´«Ã½ paying to these third parties? Are fees negotiated in advance or, as seems typical with any publicly-funded service, do they merely demand what they like?

This is all getting too much like Orwell's prediction, only 30 years too late.

Not aware...doesn't go as far as to say that the temptation of the act or the act itself, isn't there or is there.

I guess I could. It would be an interesting exercise in some ways, but as things seem to change with shifts and oversight management moods, the control constant might be compromised. 'Off topic' can be a tricky one to dodge, especially when applied selectively, as can be noted by what is still up here. And don't forget the lurking threat of a total banning if one persists.

Speaking of freedom of speech and commenting, the subsequent 'The Editors' post is kinda ironic. Doesn't seem to be going well.

Maybe a private investigator could be hired to find out what has happened to the majority of the first tranch of posts here.

Just kidding.
