Word pairs. New game 9th November
And so they should! Had any other TV channel done this they would have been closed down. The truth will out.
The BBC have got away with so much over the years and have always been biased and many would say, corrupt. Martin Bashir, Jimmy Savile, Huw Edwards etc

There are very many tv channels as well as the BBC and GB News…just sayin’.
IMO BBC and Channel 4 are the best. Just saying!
There are very many tv channels as well as the BBC and GB News…just sayin’.
CfMM’s new report concludes that the BBC is systematically biased against Palestinians in Gaza war coverage.
Analysis of 35,000+ pieces of BBC content shows Israeli deaths given 33 times more coverage, per fatality, and significantly more emotive language.
Lots more where that came from.
Oh dear. Thank you.

So when will GB News be under the spotlight? Answers on a postcard Oreo. Like when Hell freezes over?
I looked them up.
Couldnt actually find much. Far less than I thought.
G oogle seems to say it says far too much about immigrants arriving by boats.Which it prob does.
LizzieDrip posted this yesterday on the 'other thread'
Start
At least four Ofcom breach findings / sanction decisions against GB News remain on the public record (i.e. still upheld / not withdrawn as of 13 Mar 2025). Those are:
1.Mark Steyn — broadcast 21 April 2022 — Ofcom found this edition in breach (materially misleading / accuracy concerns). 
2.Mark Steyn (interview with Naomi Wolf) — broadcast 4 October 2022 — Ofcom found this edition in breach (harmful / potentially affecting health choices). 
3.The Live Desk — (decision published 18 Dec 2023) — Ofcom found this programme in breach of due-impartiality rules. 
4.People’s Forum: The Prime Minister — broadcast 12 Feb 2024 — Ofcom imposed a £100,000 statutory fine (sanction decision published 31 Oct 2024) for breaching the special impartiality requirements. 
End
Trump will sue to control misinformation

The BBC handed it to him on a plate.

Remember that the BBC did this with footage of the Orgreave riots. The videos were edited and presented to make it look as it the miners attacked the police first, when it was the police who attacked first. So they have history. Very sneaky.
It was unforgivable of them to push out the LGBT nonsense and to children, and the reporting of the Israel/Gaza issue has been reprehensible.
Good idea GrannyGravy13. A link to the actual speech as made.1. What do you mean by "LGBT nonsense"?
This could mean virtually anything! an example, perhaps?
2.
In what ways has the Israel Gaza issue news reporting by The BBC "biased"?
Making assertions with no evidence at all just doesn't cut it in any serious conversation.Pushing LGBT issues onto children, often just primary children I expect.
The Israel/Gaza reporting has been consistently biased towards Gaza and Palestinians, this is what the leaked letter from ethics and standards found.
Also the BBC showed a documentary featuring a teenage boy and his life and family…..the son of a hamas Minister!
The evidence is there.
Oh no.
They have done the Trump like thing before.
No idea where I have been with all of this.
Feel like I have now woken up.
It was screened 3? Years ago.

What panorama programme ww2?
Has it been aired or is still to go out.
I presume I can goo gle to find out though.
The one that this row is all about!

No one can ever believe what the BBC reports.
Ever since the horrendous bias, antisemitic, pro terrorist,Hamas murdering reports from Gaza - never can you believe the BBC.
Jeremy Bowen, Lise Ducept trrrible anti Israeli reporting.
Never once have they reported properly on the nightmare torturing of the hostages
The horrendous nova festival massacres,
Strangling of babies, pregnant women raped and murdered in front of other members of their families.
Elderly kibbutz residents who went into Gaza to help, educate and feed the population before October 7! But we’re still slaughtered
Phillipino agricultural students taken hostage and then murdered
Thai medical students slaughtered
And so much more!
None ever reported by Bow. & Ducept or others in the BBC
Shame on the BBC for many years now, it’s lost its integrity, honesty and verification of news
I’m so very sad
Never watch BBC news anymore / not since October 7
They don’t even have the decency to respond to complaints, they feel they are above our scrutiny.
Good riddance to them all & Shah must go as well
Well said 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

How should I know? Why be so aggressive? When they break guidelines I suppose.
I actually feel sad now.
I used to read BBC articles going back a while, and bore in mind their bias.
.
But having to bear in mind whether their writings or true or not, is a whole other ballgame.
Atm, not managing it.

Trump has threatened to sue ABC, CBS and the BBC amongst others.
It is what authoritarian leaders do to control information.
I have no doubt that the BBC will retract the panorama programme, and hopefully avoid a £1billion bill.
However, we must not allow a foreign leader to control our media output. Appeasement doesn’t sit well.

That’s the unintentionally funniest original post I’ve seen for ages.
I can't laugh, the performative outrage is pathetic and we all know why. All the usual suspects clutching their pearls and trying to more outraged than their mates.. If there was ever a tiny attempt to fact check the Mail or GBNews and the same rule applied they'd be gone in 24 hours.
You’re assuming a helluva lot about posters on here, and you know what they say ‘assuming makes an ass of me and you’.
Most posters want all media outlets to be safe true reporting but in this case it’s the BBC in the spotlight and yes, people are genuinely concerned by it.
That’s pearl clutching in your view is it?🤔

Pro Hamas, anti Israel, single sex marriage, anti Trump, anti wealth, pro climate change, pro abortion, anti Christianity…. Children changing gender identity… is this woke?
So in your view my daughters marriage is not valid?
Not everyone is comfortable with single sex marriage and various religions in the UK don’t agree with it I think?
I have no problems with it at all, but people do vary on such a matter.
GB News get's round the Ofcom policing of News channels by saying it's an entertainment channel. Ofcom must be full of donkeys. Clues in the name. Ofcom is a failure of an organisation.
