The 63-year-old former Countdown star said people 'feel lost' and the 'filter of the news, the filter through which they get their information is one which isn't recognised by them'.
Presenter Carol Vorderman has said the television industry is full of 'snobbery' and working-class people have increasingly turned to social media. In her alternative MacTaggart lecture at the Edinburgh TV Festival on Friday, she said they feel the industry does not represent them. The 63-year-old former Countdown star said social media was 'decimating' the TV industry 'with good reason', citing Ofcom figures.
She also claimed that after '14 years of austerity and lying by the privileged political class' the country was in an 'absolute mess', and the TV industry 'must accept part of the responsibility for that too, including the riots'. The maths expert, who grew up in poverty in Wales, said trust in the BBC is 'declining' because of the way 'people feel after so many controversial decisions by BBC management'.
