Joe Biden spoke to @BBCNickRobinson in his first ever interview since leaving office. But why did he speak to the BBC when he could have spoken to a US network? Listen to The Today Podcast on BBC Sounds:

@bbcnickrobinson @BBCSounds Because Genocide Joe knew that he could rely on the BBC to launder his image without mentioning his role in Gaza.

A gay podcast host is catching heat for his morally questionable hookup app ploy.

@bbcnickrobinson @BBCSounds Because the US networks wouldn't wish to broadcast something so dull 🥱 That's my guess...

@bbcnickrobinson @BBCSounds These two are just client journalists. PR men for the establishment.

@bbcnickrobinson @BBCSounds Sad fact is that Political Thinking comes across far more as a vehicle for promoting Nick Robinson than exploring the genuinely complex issues presently challenging society. He is so ideologically blinkered that he cannot ask any searching or radical questions.
