Like me, many people in the UK watch 'Countryfile' on BBC television. And, like me, many of the viewing public were incensed over the interview last Sunday with Princess Anne and her unedifying comments about killing badgers by gassing them. And moreover as has become so typical of Countryfile's biased reporting, no counter arguments were aired. Well, now Dr Chris Cheeseman has been given the opportunity to present the case against gassing on the Countryfile website. How ingratiating, how totally underwhelming, how typical of the BBC. Why not give Dr Cheeseman 10 minutes airtime on the next TV broadcast of 'Countryfile'? Let the viewing public decide who is right instead of promoting biased views from just one side of the argument. I for one feel disinclined to watch any further 'Countryfile' programmes as I know what to expect. Shame on you, BBC.
For the record, here is a link to the report by Dr Chris Cheeseman on the website: http://www.countryfile.com/news/case-against-gassing-badgers
