As they have been for decades.

Whether we like it or not, Trump is a presidential candidate and, therefore, newsworthy. Covering his speech on a day in which he was indicted is not proof of bias.

Haven't kept track, but it seems they have R politicians or spokespersons on too often for my liking. Have only had the Beeb for a couple of years, so don't know if this is a change.
