//Because, incredible as it may seem, there are sources other then the BBC.//
So why the huge worry about how the BBC report it then if they are just one of many - of which some are reporting the news just how it should be? I'll guess that it's either one or both of:
a) We all pay an individual licence tax and therefore feel entitled to BBC content tailored to our own personal preference.
b) Even though it's too left, too right, too antiquated, too woke, etc. to be of any credibility at all we are worried that it will incorrectly influence the opinion of the public that isn't clever enough to know what it is and might erroneously read meaning into what's being reported.
// Let's forget about the excessive coverage. Do you think it's right that camera crews should be roaming round the country filming inside various hospitals, particularly their ICUs? //
Safety concerns didn't prompt the OP, it was the camera work but I'll answer both. Regarding safety it's a news reporters job to do that, as they do in many unsafe places, it is a COVID risk yes but I see unnecessary risks everywhere, every day, I wish this was the worst thing that was going on. Re the camera work yes I do think there is a line regarding emotiveness that an objective news service should try not to cross and the same 30 mins of footage can be used to tell very different stories, they should tell the story and try and show people the reality but too much and people just become immune to it so should be used sparingly.
