COPENHAGEN, Denmark — Nigel Farage, the outgoing UK Independence Party leader who secured the Brexit victory in the EU referendum, told Breitbart News the legacy, corporate, and establishment media industry is one of the biggest losers in this “year of political revolution” around the world.
“This has been a year of political revolution and there’s been a total disaster for the poll industry and the media broadcast industry,” Farage told Breitbart News ahead of delivering the keynote address at the NewsXchange conference in Copenhagen, Denmark.
“If they got Brexit wrong, they got Trump doubly wrong,” said Farage, who went on to outline what he would be discussing in his keynote address.
“I will go through mostly about the BBC because since 1999 I’ve been supporting a group called News-watch. We have analysis here of thousands of hours of BBC primetime news coverage. I shall talk about just some of the bias, just some of the mindsets, that I’ve been up against for nearly 20 years.
“I will say in the BBC’s case that actually their coverage of the referendum was good. But since the referendum, they’ve completely reverted to type. Not even news programs, but the coverage of the food programs, for example, is talking about disaster for Britain outside the EU. Farming Today favors wholly the ‘catastrophe’ that is about to befall our industry. They’ve learned nothing. They’ve learned nothing.”
