BBC cancels The extreme left Mash Report
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/content/...eg?imwidth=460
The BBC has cancelled The Mash Report, the satirical show that became the focus of criticism over perceived left-wing bias in the corporation’s comedy output. The programme, hosted by Nish Kumar and featuring Rachel Parris, below, regularly targeted the Government and Brexit. Tim Davie, the director-general, has made impartiality one of his biggest priorities and signalled on his arrival last year that the drive would extend beyond news to comedy shows. He has vowed to restore trust in the BBC by better reflecting all sides of the political divide. Critics of The Mash Report included Andrew Neil, who described it as “self- satisfied, self-adulatory, unchallenged Left-wing propaganda”. Neil said the programme was a political show by another name, adding: “When it comes to so-called comedy the BBC has long given up on balance, on radio and TV. Nobody seems to care. And I don’t want right-wing comedy, whatever that is. I’d just like comedy.” In 2019, Host Kumar was booed off stage for making Brexit jokes and being very unfunny at a charity event held by the Lord’s Taverners. He was pelted with a bread roll. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/202...ved-left-wing/ |

I love how the right have jumped on this and decided that they've got it cancelled when the reality is that the show only really did well online as opposed to people actually watching it in the first place.
