The BBC is 'very American' now?

I think you'll find that the culture of objective journalism covers more than just the US (indeed the US is not particularly good at it).

Don't get me started on BBC, they are biased as well. In a different & slightly more extravagant ways e.g. by not running certain stories. I remember how Shanghai Cooperation Organisation meetings (representing more than 30% of Earth's population) were not covered on neither uk nor worldwide bbc sites.

Clearly if you don't report, it cannot be biased. Somehow, that is still biased to me...

The beeb reported on last June's meeting of this organisation: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-18349635
Did you mean some other instance was not reported?

It's fair to say I'd never heard of it before so it's clearly not well-covered in the UK (I get almost all my news from Radio4/World service and LWN plus a few other specialist sites), but then I don't find that surprising - most people here wouldn't think it interesting/noteworthy, in the same way that Debconf and FOSDEM aren't. The world service gives a completely different news perspective to the UK BBC, and I reckon is about as unbiased as a news service can reasonably be (as someone else pointed out, total objectivity is pretty-much impossible).
