the BBC should apologise with a montage of all the times Trump showed support for 6 Jan and they should get the person who does the end of World Cup montage to do it

Barely mentioned but that now notorious Trump Panorama *wasn’t made by the BBC*
It was an indie production (as so much is)
Even if was BBC, head of news or DG would wouldn’t have been involved in edits

Ah, Captain Archibald Maule Ramsay MP, BBC critic and (checks notes) a pro-Nazi who the wartime Churchill coalition interned.
February 1937 Tory campaign against BBC "bias". To be fair, if Captain Maule Ramsay was leading the charge, "left-wing" probably covered everything up to and including Mussolini...

I will restate my modest proposal to save the BBC: ban the BBC from covering itself.
Every BBC scandal goes huge, because every BBC News show wants to assert its independence by covering it prominently, even if several other shows already did. So it gets blanket headlines.
