That's just it. You don't. You are THE public broadcaster. No other body shares your mission. Why add to the noise?
The BBC has an opportunity to say "you've heard all the breathless gossip - tune in at 6pm for the facts". To bring light rather than heat.

We should try to beat Trump at his own game.
„I am the president of the United States…“
„No, you’re not.“
„What?“
„You’re not president of the United States. That is all fake news. Paid for by enemies of the State. Absolutely no truth in it.“

It was bad. No actually, it was terrible. Trump gave an interview to Fox’s Laura Ingraham, and with his guard down and no one to blame but himself, he really put his foot in it. And MAGA is pissed AF. My write-up in the replies.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

So the main culture war in Germany, fought by the country’s leader, is that despite mass deportations there are still too many non-white men in German cities: which needs to change so that white German daughters can feel safer. That’s an actual position that he is taking. An incitement to violence.
