Czech election: Zeman beats Drahos to win second term and BBC News show their prejudices

This BBC report http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-42832720 on the recent Czech Presidential Election is notable for letting you know exactly where the BBC stand. The last three paragraphs of analysis are especially transparent, here's one of those:

'The presidential election has reflected divisions between low-income voters with lower education and those living in rural areas, who tend to vote for Mr Zeman, and wealthier and well-educated residents of bigger cities, who are likely to prefer Mr Drahos, correspondents say.'

In other words, just as in the Brexit vote (also won with 52% of the vote) and the US Presidential Election, those with lower levels of education voted the wrong way (for the BBC, establishment and our betters).
