Has the BBC has lost its way as a news broadcaster, and does it matter?

This morning I switched on my default radio station, Radio 5, for breaking news, and realised its gradual deterioration over a period of years. The shock is one like the mythical frog immersed in a pot of water which is gradually warmed up until the frog is boiled.

I reviewed this podcast after England Cricket suffered two humiliating defeats against Australia in December 2025.

Drought declared in Manchester, home of the perpetual rain. Mancunians shake their heads in astonishment. 
Gardens are parched dry. Budgeons run out of bottled water. Tankers from Scotland are being hijacked and their precious loads sold on the black market to thirsty southerners.
As dusk falls, I stare hopefully at darkening clouds. I go into the garden and look up. They appear to be rain clouds ...
