The BBC do have a habit of seemingly focusing more on right wing faliures than center left wing's ones even when the center lefts faliures are more grevious than the left or right's. Expenses Scandals involving, for example, Dennis McShane? Hardly mention he's Labour. Involves A Tory who claimed 2k for a Duck House, or a traditionalist, Eurosceptic socialist? Keep digging it up, allow people on panel shows to mock it until its a zombie stallion. All comedy is left wing on the BBC and C4 though, despite the fact there's a lot less to laught at about UKIP and the Conservatives than with the GOP or CDU.
I'm not sayin that represents all BBC content though.
The only vaguely right wing stuff on the BBC these days is Top Gear. (and possibly, just possibly, Ian Hislop on Have I Got News For You)

Let's make a joke about someone who isn't white, male, heterosexuals, and christian, just because they aren't explicitly that, then it's most on the left's humor that dispersal.
The fact that most comedians today genuinely are not funny may have something to do with the fact that they are mostly left wing.
Oh, by the way, it's not enough for comedians or BBC employees to attack the left,
reason is "Labour /LibDems/Greens/RESPECT aren't left wing enough", you have to air attacks from the right to be genuinely unbiased

The Audience on Question Time is most certainly left wing biased.
The panels are ok, on too many episodes it seems people went in just to make farmyard noised at Tory MP's.
