Journalism that's so utterly in thrall to a logic that wants it dead, and which is never, ever understood for what it is. I.e. journalism that is failing.No need to apologise. It wasn't so long ago the BBC did a hagiography of Musk where some female Septic drawled that "Musk is probably smarter than Einstein"...
In an article for the ConservativeHome website, Conservative MP Caroline Dinenage said Prescott’s claims “made plain what many viewers have sensed for some time: a pattern of institutional bias within BBC News and current affairs”. She also accused it of “deep anti-Israel bias”.
The issue, she wrote, “runs into the very culture, editorial mindset and assumptions that have shaped the BBC for years”.
It was a strong take for a figure who would no doubt be involved in examining the claims Prescott had made. A problem has emerged with the excoriating article, however – Dinenage now says she did not write it.
Dinenage was quizzed about the article by the BeebWatch podcast, fronted by former BBC Radio 4 presenter Roger Bolton. However, before the episode was released, the podcast was contacted by Dinenage’s office to say that neither she – nor her team – had written the article, which did not accurately reflect her views.
"Whatever the truth, it has remained on the ConservativeHome website for several months without anyone apparently noticing. It is still there to be read. Altogether a rum affair."
