BBC World Service Reviews

Too much can be dangerous

Majestic 48 on

Switzerland

Dear BBC, Thanks for the extensive coverage and bravery of your reporters! Just a note about the people they are interviewing: real names should be avoided. Informers could list them and later they risk reprisals. Anything is possible, be more careful. A prayer for Ukraine, may this massacre end quickly and may Ukraine survive and resume its democratic life. GP

Not so good

Confusing, not straight and clear. Too many videos and above all too many stupid ads. Hardly worth the trouble.

boring

BBC is not interesting any more, has become boring and out-of-date. The app is not modern. Information is presented badly. It is a pity.

BBC is just fantastic!

Le plus : bbc world a une sacré réputation qui remonte très loin - quand il était le seul moyen d’avoir de l’information fiable en Europe occupé. Aujourd’hui avec la « poutinisation » rampante de l’information je retourne à cette source. Le moins : la publicité invasive alors que la Grande Bretagne n’est pas un pays en défaut de paiement.
