Question

Hm. Here's an exam question based on the opening of tonight's BBC One early evening news bulletin. (I'll let you decide it it's a good one).

Which of the following (if any) do you think are more biased in their way of putting it than all the others? (There may be more than one answer). And, if so, in which direction(s)? Or are they all equally impartial?

The second part of the questions is: And which one of them do you think the BBC actually used tonight?

1. Good evening. The President of the European Commission has said that many people in Britain are underestimating the difficulties of Brexit. 
2. Good evening. The President of the European Commission has claimed that many people in Britain are underestimating the difficulties of Brexit. 
3. Good evening. The President of the European Commission has warned that many people in Britain are underestimating the difficulties of Brexit.
4. Good evening. The President of the European Commission has told fellow EU leaders that many people in Britain are underestimating the difficulties of Brexit.
