Rejected petition Condemn the B.B.C. for blatant bias towards "REMAIN" during the E.U. Referendum.
It is clear that by the nature of the B.B.C. coverage of the E.U. Referendum campaign that it is doing its best to support the "REMAIN" arguement.
More details
During Barak Obama's recent visit much of their news broadcasts were given over to him, much time allowed for his views on the campaign to be heard, whereas the LEAVE responses were merely allowed to be fleeting.
The whole way the BBC present the "arguements" is skewed towards REMAIN.
