The BBC didn’t help themselves with the unnecessary editing of the Jan 6th speech, but I trust them a hell of a lot more than anything the Cheeto supporters come out with.

Anyone in these comments taking the side of Trump’s secretary here, in any way, book them as Russian bots. Guarantee it.

The bbc is a bit shit, as is most media. But compared to US media it’s giving fantastic. Fuck this stupid woman and her stupid country.

If the BBC report this quote, does it mean it’s true or false?

The BBC is like the NHS, a terrible broken system leagues ahead of what most other countries have.

bbc news is not fake news no matter how you look at them or whether you agree with them or not.
they may have slight political leanings on certain subjects but no one is immune to impartiality and they try their best, the recent flak they’ve received was from panorama, a tv show broadcast via the BBC, but isn’t BBC news.

HIGNFY covered this very succinctly last night.
As the host put it (I’m paraphrasing) “if Trump is calling for insurrection you don’t need to edit it”
The BBC got caught up in the excitement of the day and hyped up something that spoke for itself.

I like how this has outraged the media here and in the US, and yet when the Corbyn interview with Kuenssberg was edited in a far worse way (to take his answer to one question and replace it with an answer he gave to another question, to make it seem he was soft on terrorism after the Paris attack) all these same commentators were absolutely fine with it.

BBC has nothing to apologise for. Trump called for an insurrection when he organised and attended a march on the Capitol on the day of the electoral college vote, told his fans they have been robbed by crooks and needed to fight like hell. The evidence is abundant and if US politics had any care for democracy they’d have put him and his accomplices in prison.

The BBC should display this as a badge of honour. The best possible confirmation of their accuracy and impartiality is this lying grifter calling them fake news. Lovely stuff.

This the same woman that would rather make “your mother” jokes than answer questions?

The way to tell the BBC isn’t fake news:
*Constant scrutiny from both left AND right on the political spectrum accused of being the other. Very much centre if taken as an average.
* Regular reviews and apologies. You may think this means consistent mistakes, but they make no more than any other. They actually acknowledge it and try to improve.
The absolutely fake Right wing American press do neither of the above.

I can think of only a few things that justify the licence fee in full. This is one of them.
Please note I am not saying the BBC near constantly platforming Reform / Farage is an acceptable spend of the licence fee.

Trump’s legacy is really going to be ‘something I don’t like = fake news’ isn’t it

She’s closer in age to her own baby than she is to her husband. That’s not fake news.

I’m not a massive fan of the BBC personally but do view them as fairly impartial. I also have some great reasoning to back it up:
It’s simple really, according to the Right, the BBC is a place that is constantly pushing the ‘left wokist agenda’
To those on the left, the BBC is a ‘right wing propaganda platform’.
If you can be equally hated by people on the Left and on the Right, you’re probably slap bang in the middle.

She spews out more propaganda than can ever be measured on any metric.

Could she cite her source or provide 5 lies?
I’ll wait.

Phew good to know. For a minute I thought Trump did win but since it’s fake news. I’ll sleep better tonight

Every single thing fuckface said and did that day was either to deny the election results certification (a coup) or to incite a riot to cover up for his coup. They could have picked two random sentences and they would have been treasonous. This is a non story, and anyone who believes a word of it needs to get their head out of their ass.

How the fuck can anyone take a person seriously that echos the same dumb shit catch phrase of the loser they blindly support?
“Dickie, why do you like Camp Ella soup so much?
“Well it’s just so “Mmm, good’er” than the other soups.”
