Are we absolutely sure it wouldn't be possible to select the end of 2 other interviews where she finished polite and smiley to a Labour MP and short thrift with a Tory? 

Surely it depends on the nature of the closing comments, if there was a bit of a tussle between them over something. 

It seems to prove if you take a small enough sample of anything then it can be framed as bias.

Anyway, why are Villa always last on Match of the Day?

This is interesting and worth watching it all if you have time, its a discussion on bias and if the government has captured the BBC. Talk of Robbie Gibb is very insightful.

This podcast in general is really excellent to be honest

You've got Kuenssberg out front, Gibb out back and a video editor that made the Brexit PM look sober at the Cenotaph on Remembrance Sunday.

Add to that the output of the media owned by the tax shy.

That's how the country finds itself led right down the garden path, and onto the slope we're bouncing down.

I suspect after deepening misery, there's a cliff edge waiting for a closely following generation?

They will be livid, and rightly so.

The research by Cardiff Uni into bias (which has been quoted numerous times in this thread) in the BBC suggested it's quantifiable and not at all bad actors cherrypicking quotes from here and there to misrepresent what's really happening. In fact it also suggested that that is exactly what the BBC are guilty of when they start quoting 'balance' as a defense, sorry not defense, misdirection, when their coverage is questioned.
