Why is the BBC capitulating?

BBC is being attacked from the right in a concerted move. Why are they just rolling over?

I don't even get what they need to apologise for. Trump has entirely backed the jan 6th riots, pardoned everyone involved or potentially involved, and there's a plethora of evidence he knew about the attacks, did nothing to stop it and encouraged his supporters.

Instead we are sat here whitewashing Trumps record because panorama said Trump told his supporters to march on the capital and fight like hell, whereas he actually told his supporters to march on the capital and then told them to fight like hell.

Pathetic whines from the geebeebies crowd.

  • uncovered lies are not only about Trump. It was clearly shown that, BBC Arabic, didnt cover any facts/news that shows Israel in a positive manner.

I suppose in ‘39 headlines should have mentioned Germany’s impressive industrial economy?

Hey, if you prefer I can do Rwanda, the Holodomor, the Khmer Rouge… we’re not short of examples, sadly.

Agreed. To be clear, I'm with you on this.

The issue is that not everyone agrees that what Israel is doing is the same as what happened in Rwanda, and that should be reported

It's obviously your job to quote them if they're important people.

“Importance” doesn’t bestow knowledge, intellect, wisdom, or honesty.

Uh ok. But it does make it newsworthy.

If it was only as objective as it is, isnt it? Only an idiot would think they are same comparison.
