I’m sure people will correct meif I’m wrong but I think this polling is a first. We see from time to time several different forms of “trust” polling but as far as I can recall these latest findings from Ipsos MORI covering broadcast, the press and the internet is new.

You're mistaking Sky News for Sky.
Rather like advertisers but without the rules

BBC news front page is prominently reporting 71 dead.
Per BBC report:
"The original missing persons list was also made higher by fraudulent cases, police said, with some individuals attempting to benefit financially from the tragedy.
There are a number of ongoing fraud investigations, and earlier this month one man pleaded guilty to fraud after claiming that his wife and son had both died in the fire."

What score the RP (Racing Post ?) - would score a 9.9 with me.
But that doesn't mean that I can't criticise it when I think it's going wrong. Loving it unconditionally means that everyone loses.
SHOCKED.
Having said that I will not be backing Jeremy or his side kick McDonnell anytime soon
They have attributed the significant dip in late 2012 to the Jimmy Savile scandal. I'd suggest they might want to also note the Lord McAlpine case was around that time too.
The Ulsterisation of British politics? NEVER! NEVER! NEVER!
Would Michael Buerk's reporting from Ethiopia in 1984 have had quite the same effect without the videos of the starving children?
They should be transitioning to a funding mechanism which is sustainable and enforceable.
The government have delayed the inevitable with their recent changes, but the TV licence still unsustainable in the long term in anything like its current form.
The public now have choice.
In my many years in England Ive been called everything from Billy the Bigot to Brendan the Bomber. Usually by miiddle class twats who talk about diversity and racism.
you know you really wanted to vote Remain
Agree about the BBC's brand.
Probably has more long-term sustainable funding model than anyone else.
Amazon, Google, Apple, they are all coming and coming hard, putting billions into content creation, and that is on top of Netflix, Sky, Itv etc etc etc.
btw UK is not a PLC and calling it one is a bit silly, and does no favours to your argument, given that PLCs do not thrive by having a state monopoly enforceable by the criminal courts, they thrive by selling stuff that people voluntarily pay for.
2) Jews as the puppet masters controlling the world/top politicians is a well known/used anti-Semitic trope in posters/images.
Most young people think watching traditional tv is rather a weird concept. They watch YouTube, Netflix, etc. And yes iPlayer, but the BBC don't enforce payment for iPlayer, it is trivial to access from anywhere in the world for free, which seems a very bad situation to me.
I would bet 99.9% of people seeing that poster would not have the first idea about it being anti-Semitic and nor would those who came up with it. Only sad losers like TSE are trying to make it an issue.

The i is the equivalent of a broadsheet now? I must be a banana.
I have the Independent now down as an online Daily Express of the left.
BBC Worldwide does rather well outside the UK.

"I think the point was that we had a workable relationship with our neighbour and largest trading partner and as a part of that relationship there was freedom of movement. This was part of a broader set of agreements which proved to be mutually beneficial. Over the years both parties have benefited.
What I think happened with the referendum is that this one element of the overall relationship was focused on by people who have never liked immigration and probably never will.
In years gone by EU immigration has ebbed and flowed and before that there was other kinds of immigration (Huguenots, Jews, Asian, Afro-Caribbean) and my guess is those were not liked either. The difference at the EU Ref was that those people who didn't like immigration could finally do something about it. So they did."
True but misses the point I think. The levels of immigration in the two decades leading up to the referendum were very high, much much higher, both in absolute and relative terms than in any previous period of our history. Between 1964 - 1974, net migration was negative; until about 1996 it was running at ca. 40-50,000 p.a. From 1997 it tripled in one year - going to 140,000 in 1998 and was then at ca. 200,000 p.a. A total of 3.6 million people came to Britain during the 1997-2010 period. That is an enormous number for a small country.
To contrast, in 1907 the US received 1.3 million people. At the rate of immigration into the UK, every 4 years the UK was receiving the same number of people as the US did in one of the years when its annual immigration was at its highest. The UK is not a quarter of the size of the US.
I am not one of those who dislikes immigration. Indeed, I have gone on record here (and am one of the few to say so) who thinks that opening up our country to the Poles was a good, generous and moral thing to have done. Germany's attitude to immigration from Poland was, IMO, a disgrace. But when the numbers reach the sort of levels they did then concern about immigration and about how best to control it was not the concern of just those who disliked foreigners.
