We at the the BBC must occasionally deviate from our normal 'murica bashing mandate and publish something critical about US rivals. We apologize if this has upset anyone and we thank you for your patience. We now return you to your normal diet of conformal anti-US hate mongering.

Thank you.

I can't decide whether I loathe Clinton or Trump more - both are despicable. However as a Brit I'm sick of you guys trying to make my mind up for me.

Your ability to report on Clinton's shortcomings has been dismal in comparison to Trump. It's clear there is an editorial bias.

Please explain to me why Trump's changing-room-gate has been on the main page all week, but there hasn't been any coverage of Clinton's suggestion of assassinating Assange with drones? Both are deplorable, private comments said (at best) in jest.

That Clinton thing is still unproven. It's not like it's a fact at the moment.

Changing-room-gate has been notable for his own party freaking out over it and abandoning him. I don't think it would have got nearly so much coverage otherwise.
