The BBC seems to annoy the extremea of folk in the UK. The left claim it to be a Tory mouthpiece; the right claim it to push left agenda.
If you've got the opposing ends moaning like fuck then I figure they're doing *something* right.
(edit: BBC, not NBC, no idea why my phone's gone full American)

You're correct. I totally thought they were talking about Noem at first.

Oh TACO Belle? Yeah, she's a prime candidate of cluelessness too. But there are so many trump hires who fit this bill, and only so many characters allowed in a Lemmy comment field.

The same administration who...
(...the list goes on and on and on...)
Is making claims about a foreign news organization and what they published on their website... Yeah, I think I'll believe the BBC on this one.

White House takes the word of Israel with total truth.
I don't love the BBC but if they've rattled that orange wotsit cunt then that's good in my book.

Lying sacks of fetid shit lie continually. More at 11.

It said the White House had conflated that incident with a “completely separate” report by BBC Verify, the corporation’s factchecking team, which found a viral video posted on social media was not linked to the aid distribution centre it claimed to show. “This video did not run on BBC news channels and had not informed our reporting,” it said. “Conflating these two stories is simply misleading.”
BBC is misunderstanding this. They didn't conflate the two separate things *intentionally*.
I fully believe they did it out of sheer incompetence and ignorance, and when they realised the mistake, they did what they always do and doubled down on it. The dimwits who elect them will get confused otherwise.

Such an easy claim to disprove and they do it anyways, true leaders.
