For news its as impartial as anything else I can think of?

And its news divisions are only one part of what we pay for. BBC4 easily justifies the license fee alone.

If you really want to get het up about 'why am I paying for this s**t?' just check out its usual daytime offerings.

(I agree with you that its Israel coverage is poor and unbalanced. But I suspect for opposite reasons to you...)
