What rubbish in The Times today re the BBC. As ever, doing down the BBC, complaining about the licence fee and not a word in its editorial about Trump's bullying. At the end of the day, Panorama was still right and the BBC should see this as an opportunity to assert its excellence.

We must stand firm and sue Trump for libel. We must not budget one inch. Panorama was accurate.

America is entering a third Red Scare, where dissent is punished and freedoms are diminished, @qjurecic.bsky.social argues.
The Third Red Scare
The Trump administration is cracking down on Americans’ freedom of speech with a new viciousness, but the First Amendment won’t go down without a fight.

It is ironic that the shabby, timid BBC, which has allowed standards to slip, writing reports with bad English and demonstrating an extraordinary obsession with Reform has finally brought itself down. In doing so, it has given legitimacy to Trump, which is a disgrace.

It was pressure from the USA that instigated change. That is despite the fact Trump is as guilty as sin.
The love of Farage, the extraordinary bias which excludes other political parties, is not mentioned. It needs a root and branch review. That said, sack Chris Mason now.

A big win for people more outraged by a silly edit at the BBC than by a man impeached by Congress for literally inciting an insurrection being back in the White House. Pathetic.

I am proud that my law firm is representing this amazing organization in this critical fight for the right to vote.
🚨BREAKING: A civil rights organization sued the Trump administration Saturday over a new policy barring nonprofits from helping new U.S. citizens register to vote. The lawsuit calls the policy part of a “broader effort to ensure that new Americans cannot exert their democratic will on the nation.”

I always find it interesting how the story changes when a lawyer gets to court. They can say anything they want outside of court without accountability but the rules are vastly different in court where you can get seriously penalized for lying.
