BBC

The ​Bing Bong Corporation (more simply known as the ​BBC​) is a political party and production company on the SpongeBob Fanon Wiki, formerly owned by LTV and The Teal Horizon Company. It was created on 12th January, 2018 by Vanessa as an independant alternative to the ELILA, a party with similar but not identical ideals. The party was created in a rushed attempt to provide a space for users who do not want to be associated with that damn fool Kelpy G, but still agree with most (if not all) of ELILA's ideology. It has been criticised and protested for being lazy and "way too similar" to the ELILA, as well as facing protest from Kelpy G and others, who falsely accused the BBC of being a Communist organisation that privately funds The Terrible Travishttps://spongefan.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:Squidnerd/ban_the_big_bong_corporation
. The party was abandoned on 30th January 2018 in order for Mrs Chanandler Bong to join the Tea and Crumpets Corporation, but as of 2020 they have shown a willingness to revamp and once again lead the party. The party was officially reopened on 23rd February 2020, and now serves as a production company for many of series and works owned by Vanessa. Members of the party were known as Bingbongers. 
The BBC left LTV in 2023 after a disagreement with Purple133's use of the N-word.

==​History==
=== 2018 ===
The stance of the BBC within its short existence in 2018 shows a pro-Squidnerd and anti-Travis party, despite Vanessa's close personal ties to Travis. It also shows a somewhat contradictory view of simplifying SBFW and its regulations whilst also supporting the hypothetical mirror to Encyclopedia SpongeBobia's conventions. It also supported the ban of itself, however the proposal was withdrawn. It also retracted its supportive stance on disabling anonymous accounts from editing soon after the proposal passed. Overall, despite their claim to be a centrist or centre of left party, they showed support of progressive and somewhat right-wing views, which was not reciprocated by the right-wing authority, who rejected and attempted to thwart the BBC as it was believed to privately fund Travis, and by extension, the left. After Squidnerd's retirement, the BBC soon became a rump party, and was abandoned days later, with its last vote being to demote Squidnerd.

=== 2019 ===
The BBC did not exist in 2019.
=== 2020 ===
The newly re-established BBC struggled to develop a decisive political stance due to lack of votes, but Vanessa promised to uphold the centre-of-left political stance and the wholesome values that vow for a more simple SBFW that is not politics-ridden. The party formed an alliance with CrazySponge, founder of N.I.T.W.I.T., who joined the party in February 2020, despite Vanessa's proposal to make his userpage a community page the year before. SpongeBot678 and , founder of the Anti-CC Party, joined the party the same day, seen as a culmination of a close, prolonged bond between the users. Squidnerd, who had been supported throughout the party's 2018 run, also joined the party in February.
Soon after its re-establishment, the BBC ceased acting as a political party and now primarily functions as Vanessa's production company.

As a production company, the BBC has produced Vanessa's recent spin-off, Squidward at the Hospital, and is one of LTV's core subsidiaries. On 6th August, it gained the rights to Locknloaded23's company, Lobster Productions, which Vanessa has branded their "first colony".
=== 2021 ===
The BBC has become essentially just a brand as of July 2021, as Vanessa's only active spin-off that they own is SBFW: Finding Bigfoot, which does not credit the BBC as a production company, instead crediting Canary Productions, Pen and Ink Animation and Riverbed Productions.

=== "Let's settle this once and for all" ===
Whilst not a proposal per se, Vanessa uploaded a poll on behalf of the BBC to decide who would own the series, Leader Plankton!. The choices were between Squidnerd and The Terrible Travis. Squidnerd decidedly won the poll, with 13 votes against Travis' eight, however the poll held no weight and the issue surrounding the series is still controversial to this day.
