BBC coverage was heavily biased against Israel, report into corporation’s output findsThe BBC breached its own editorial guidelines more than 1,500 times during the height of the Israel-Hamas war, a damning report has found. The report revealed a “deeply worrying pattern of bias” against Israel, according to its authors who analysed four months of the BBC’s output across television, radio, online news, podcasts and social media. The research, led by British lawyer Trevor Asserson, also found that Israel was associated with genocide more than 14 times more than Hamas in the corporation’s coverage of the conflict. On Saturday, Danny Cohen, a former BBC executive, warned that there was now an “institutional crisis” at the national broadcaster and called for an independent inquiry into its coverage of the Israel-Hamas war. Lord Austin, a former Labour minister, accused the BBC of “high-handed arrogance” for continually dismissing questions over its impartiality. “The findings reveal a deeply worrying pattern of bias and multiple breaches by the BBC of its own editorial guidelines on impartiality, fairness and establishing the truth,” the report said. It also found that the BBC repeatedly downplayed Hamas terrorism while presenting Israel as a militaristic and aggressive nation. It claimed that some journalists used by the BBC in its coverage of the Israel-Gaza conflict have previously shown sympathy for Hamas and even celebrated its acts of terror. In view of criticism after the October 7 attacks the BBC announced it would "where possible" label Hamas as a terrorist organisation. However, the research revealed that out of 12,459 mentions of Hamas, only 409 (3.2%) referred to the group as terrorists. www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/09/07/bbc-breached-guidelines-more-1500-times-israel-hamas-war/I suspect few will be surprised at BBC bias, it is after all what we have come to expect.

Hmmmmm. According to the left he is exactly that a British person and how he found the time is neither here nor there if it is accurate and it seems to be. |

Like every Jew, working for the institute of me, me and me. I bet he never bothered with the inaccuracies that a correction may favour the other side. |

Not sure if that works, I would think that some people will have integrity no matter who they are. Of course the 'other side' is exactly what he is considering. |

The warning sign with the chap is on his wiki page. Wiki reports, this page is a unbalanced, please help to improve it. Also consider he is a lawyer, not a vicar. |

But the thread isn't about a Wiki page or pet hatreds. It's about the BBC using their position to promote an agenda to brainwash the population to hate Israel, which is why we're seeing marches in the UK calling for the extermination of Israel whilst people are being arrested for holding up a banner stating that Hamas are terrorists (they are according to the law). |

Yes and do you really think an Israeli lawyer is the best person to shape the BBC's output to be in the service of the ones who pay for it? I understand we don't get funding for the BBC from the Israeli licence payer, so my advice to him is to fuck off. |

We are dealing with words here and what is said and words are the very stuff of broadcasting and they are rarely neutral. |

I think he is a politician imposing Israeli will on the British people, and if you doubt they do that then you need to watch The Labour Files on Al-Jazeera. |

How can he impose Israeli will on the British people? He has no authority over the BBC and the report is independent of the BBC as far as I can see. The British people expect the BBC to report without bias and as such the reporting from Gaza should be balanced. It is strange you wish me to ignore a Jewish output because it is Jewish but wish me to base my reconsideration on an Arab channel output.. Many countries throughout the world try to impose their will onto the British people I would think Arab nations and Israel are no exception to that. The BBC should not be part of that game which is not an easy path to follow but so far they seem to be making a right pig's ear of it and seemingly reporting with a degree of bias unbecoming of them and their supposed adherence to editorial impartiality. |

The documentary on Labour could probably not legally be made in this country. It is hot material. It is not propaganda because it is largely interviews with those who are inside Labour. It's just what happened and is it totally fucking shoddy. Watching that could have told you what Starmer was going to be like. There are no other documentaries with is information. You either watch it or remain stupid. This is why it is in no way strange when you know what I'm talking about. Aslo chack this guy's wiki page. There is more background on him. He's not a normal lawyer. He's a political lawyer. |
