I don't think that's true at all. The BBC has run lots of major stories embarrassing to the government such as the failed role out of Universal Credit and the Windrush scandal.

Right now there's this story on the front page - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-devon-47884273 - which appears to be original investigative reporting into a Tory MP.

What are you basing your opinion on?
