BBC reporting biased towards EU Referendum In campaign
Currently I'm an undecided voter with regards to the EU Referendum campaign so have an open mind towards both sides of the argument.
Is it me or does it seem that the BBC's reporting is biased towards the "In" campaign.
Whenever there is a speech for the "In" side it is covered in detail and invariably is headline news. Or when there is an opinion from big business or the IMF for example it is big news.
For example there was a speech by both Mr Cameron and Mr Johnson yet the BBC website mentions both but the main image on the page is of Mr Cameron's speech.

The section "EU referendum campaign live" only mentions a comment from the World Bank.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The BBC's content is independent of the Government and Parliament. If you want to make a complaint about BBC reporting, you can find out about the BBC complaints system here:
