But the right (world over, not just America, I should know better) labels it as leftist. It's just cuckoo.
Actually Auntie has become increasingly right wing in its reportage over the last ten or so years, due to massively increased political pressure from firstly the hard-right Nu-Labor government, and then after that from the even harder right Tory/Orange Tory coalition government. The news desk is so reduced in independence that it reports approvingly on the economically destructive and wrongheaded austerity measures in place for the last seven years, where even a centrist news organisation would report, rightly, that the most stupid thing to do in a recession is to cut the money supply.
