“Once again the UK state broadcaster goes missing in action – this time at the discovery of a mass grave of emergency workers executed by Israel”
Nope! Not surprised at all!
Lest we forget:
As historian AJP Taylor wryly remarked, the BBC’s first Director General [Baron John] Reith had
"managed to preserve the technical independence of the BBC by suppressing news which the government did not want published. This set a pattern for the future: the vaunted independence of the BBC was secure so long as it was NOT exercised."
Not so @BBC5Live
@BBCRadio4?
Veteran UK anti-Zionist campaigner, Tony #Greenstein, eviscerates the BBCs coverage of the Gaza genocide in his most recent blogpost!

“In the 1930s the BBC Appeased and Even Attempted to Justify the Nazi Regime’s Anti-Semitism – Today It Loves Israel and Zionism - Has Anything Changed?”
Seriously … what’s the point of BBC News & Current Affairs?
“The #BBC’s Idea of Impartiality is a balance between the #Right & the #FarRight: When the #BBC's Director General Tim #Davie says ‘We are absolutely driven by a passion for impartiality’ it’s like Hitler saying he was driven by a passion for Jews”
- quoting veteran UK anti-Zionist campaigner Tony #Greenstein

Why is there nothing about the bad bill vote on BBC website?
@CEMedia Unsurprising to me that, as you report, the @BBC initially seemed very reluctant to report #Zahawi’s tax avoidance! As AJP Taylor wryly remarked, [former Director General] Reith had
"managed to preserve the technical independence of the BBC by suppressing news which the government did not want published. This set a pattern for the future: the vaunted independence of the #BBC was secure so long as it was NOT exercised" #BBCPropaganda #EstablishmentMedia #StateBroadcaster
