Okay this is English politics so I'll give a bit of background:
We have spent years making a bid for the soccer World Cup in 2018. The vote for which country would host it was on Thursday (yesterday). On Tuesday the BBC aired an investigative journalism special program about how corrupt the officials voting were (taking bribes in the millions etc). I'm now sat watching a show where a panel of 5 politicians and an audience are discussing whether the BBC should have held the scheduling for the program back to help us win our bid. (We lost by the way)
I'm pretty dumbfounded because I've been sat here for 10 minutes and not one person has said 'of course they should have aired it, do we really want to win a competition from a corrupt and immoral organisation' which was my first thought on hearing the debate question.
People either seem to be neutral and say 'let the BBC do what it wants' or 'they should have aired it next week after the vote'.
WTF?
