We've covered this before with you I'm sure, but US broadcasting can't be compared in anyway to UK.
The freedom of speech protections don't exist in the UK, so there are very extensive regulations on fairness, accuracy, impartiality and plurality of views on each licenced broadcaster; along with tougher libel laws.
Don't be misled by misinformation or misleading comment on Twitter or frankly here: the requirements of the Broadcasting legal code are fairly strong within the context of a democracy. They are fully implemented and always, always a major consideration by broadcast content makers.
