Remember in the pre 2014 days Jim the pro Scot indy vote jumped considerably from a steady 24% to an eventual 45% (after a brief rise above 50% in 2014). I'm expecting a similar rise that will finally take us above the 60% mark and hoping that it will be another steady marker from thereon in! When one looks more closely at this gradual rise in opinion and voting intentions, it really is astounding when one considers how so much unionist shit/propaganda is disingenuously "fired out" by press operators who dominate the newspaper coverage in Scotland at round about the 90% mark. Then add in the pro union bbc that is supposed to be impartial but is indeed a state radio/tv broadcaster that has been well sussed out long ago by most people in the Scot electorate.

Don't you think that these days just about every media outlet is biased one way of the other? The BBC do a very good job of reporting the news but they are also doing more and more opinion pieces and having guests on who then give their opinions. Its very much the model over here, is CNN any better than Fox, one is left biased, the other is right biased, it tends to be which way you lean as to which you think is telling the truth. Both cover the news well, and present facts well but it quickly becomes opinion, almost seamlessly over here, at which point they go off on different tangents to each other. Print media is the same, we can all sit and name a newspaper and then say which way they lean, to me its obvious whether its the Guardian or the Mail which way their bias is. We tend to disparage media who do not lean the same way as we do far more than those whose bias matches with our opinion.

Not sure how you stop this or even if we need to. I have seen a number of organisations that put a lot of effort into labelling news media and where their bias sits in general, but then you can ask do they have bias as well that skews their results??
