    I’m in the US. Guess I just haven’t tried to access them on mobile Safari in a while since this was new to me.

    I generally find NPR the most bearable of US news outlets. I also used to run a member station newsroom and reported for the network a few times during those years.

    BBC lost credibility several years ago for hosts talking more than guests and putting words into the guests’ mouth. Their paywall was just a curious additional insult.

      I would add, a moment in the bbc losing credibility to me, already accused of cynicism, was when they interviewed some lula partisan during the car wash investigation, while pretending the prosecutor’s office was on the up and up. I called bs in real time, I was right. The bbc is fucked in many areas, and running scared on Israel.
