Having stuck with the BBC news website for many years out of loyalty to Aunty, I'm now so completely pissed off with the constant and unrelenting barrage of politically correct dirge - on a daily basis insert: minority gender issue, minority religious issue, obligatory Ed Sheeran funny (seriously? is he the only pop star they can name?), celebration of women's cricket, hysterical bleating about non issues (e.g., 2nd from top atm http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/resources/...urora_shooting: yes, SSRIs are *guaranteed* to turn you into a mass-murderer, folks) etc. etc. - I can't take it seriously any more.
Now... I don't give a fuck if you're a non-binary, muslim cricketer who creams over Ed Sheeran. Good for you. I'd be the first to defend your right to do whatever the fuck you like, but I really don't think your existence is *newsworthy*.
Digging a little deeper I found:

To reflect the lives of all our audiences, we will: set challenging new on-air portrayal targets for disabled people, women, ethnic minorities, and LGBT people, which go wider and further than ever before, to ensure our content reflects the public we serve.
Great. The problem is, imo, they're forgetting the majority.
Where do you go for your online news? Was thinking of paying for the Times.
