He used to have a show on the BBC, and if I'm not mistaken he still has one on Channel 4. I don't think anyone would accuse ITV or Sky of being particularly left-wing. Centrist, perhaps, which is arguably where all broadcasters should be, and apart from being a little 'politically correct' (which is actually what they should be, in order to minimise offence to viewers/licence-fee payers), I'm not sure how the BBC or Channel 4 are even 'centre left' so much as purely centrist for the most part (which, once again, is where all the MSM broadcasters should be). And whilst I don't conflate centrist with neutral (which is arguably the best position to take), I do think centrist is closer to neutral than the left or the right.

But it's Charter also means that it's, quite rightly, required to reflect and represent a large cross-section of society, hence why it will try to use sensitive language and broadcast programmes that focus on minority issues (and it's largely for these reasons, although not exclusively by any means, that I'm a cheerleader for the BBC and the licence fee; if it's gone, expect more generic lowest-common-denominator programming, and fewer minority interest programmes except for those who can afford to pay extra).
