This!
Hmmm… there were no official plans. The tabloids announced the plan, and now the tabloids say the plan is ditched. And everyone plays along as if it wasn’t all completely made up…

REP. MASSIE (a Republican): “Trump will protect you if you vote the wrong way… if you vote to cover up for pedophiles — but I would remind my Republican colleagues this vote is going to be on your record longer than Trump is going to be president.”

Hannity: When did you notice Biden’s cognitive decline?

Miller: I think it was through all of the times that Trump has fallen asleep in public and talked about magnets getting wet.

Couple of days old but I cannot recommend this episode of @newsagents.bsky.social enough.
They get to the heart of what's good, and bad, with BBC and the likely causes.

A quick reminder for all who suffered the wilful neglect of history & government lessons in their school years:

It took 783 days from the Watergate burglary for Nixon to resign, & in between he was re-elected.

In that time, evidence was uncovered & released bit-by-bit, lost, & leaked.

Spot on
Yup, screaming.

It was a bad edit and needed correction, but you’d have to be a wilful idiot to think it made the overall programme misleading. Trump really did encourage January 6, for months.

Nobody needed to resign over that and it doesn’t mean BBC News is untrustworthy.

There's been lots written about the BBC this last few days, much of it highly critical and some saying the amount of criticism is hugely unfair.
What I've not seen is anyone offering any sort of praise or support for Robbie Gibb.

Really? Gibb, head of the BBC posting this? @bbcnewsnight
Ladies and gentlemen, Sir Robbie Gibb, the BBC Board Member with the impartiality remit

This.
The BBC should just say sorry again, and promise to play his Jan 6th speech in full. It feels like some are trying to argue that the BBC have somehow distorted the speech. Then play it in full. It’s all there in its full inciteful glory.

Listened to the rather excellent Full Disclosure interview with John Lloyd hosted by @mrjamesob.bsky.social earlier.
What a career! His CV is absolutely incredible and seemingly endless.
Also, nothing is funnier than a fart😂
Have a listen..

"I don't think a child should be penalised because they're in a bigger family through no fault of their own," she tells BBC.

And yet not unbelievable at all...
This is unbelievable. Just a complete lack of belief in objectivity. And the BBC fucking caved to it
Michael Prescott was ‘“shocked” that after an hour-long Panorama documentary dealing with Trump and the January 6 insurgency, there was no “similar, balancing” programme about Kamala Harris.’

More read about the machinations between the BBC resignations, the more worrying it becomes

This 'balance' bollocks will be the death of the bbc - of course there was not similar coverage of Harris she didn't start a fucking insurrection. This is utter madness and cowardness from the bbc

"Farage delighting in the damage"
Yes, of course he is - that's what traitorous cunts do.
The Panorama edit was clumsy. But the facts remain. It was a violent insurrection to upend a democratic vote. Looking at the wild outrage here, we’d be forgiven for thinking Jan 6th never happened. In terms of bias, this is off the scale worse. With Farage delighting in the damage.
