Things were always going to get awkward the second Israel started targeting Western journalists instead of Palestinian ones.
typically one does actually use relevant names and titles in headlines but i guess comedy trumps journalism
how on earth does this get published?
incredible and accurate reporting from bbc reporters who definitely know what autism is

"I want to make one thing clear. I left BBC News last year after covering Gaza for months because I could see evidence accumulating into the robust conclusion that Israel has been committing war crimes & crimes against humanity" Karishma Patel
But since the BBC banned it this has now become the most popular and most watched documentary in the world.
It’s like no one knows at the BBC about the Barbara Streisand effect or the basic rule of life:
“You can never see this! I forbid it. Never hear the words of a severely depressed kid in a war zone detailing his life and writing poems as he worries about where his next meal is coming from. He is obviously EVIL~!”
See, now I wanna see this documentary more.
Exclusive: "If anything happens to me, the BBC is responsible."
Abdullah al-Yazuri, the 13-year-old narrator of Gaza: How to Survive a War Zone, speaks to MEE after the BBC pulled the documentary.
"I worked for nine months, and it was all wiped."
Exclusive: Narrator of pulled BBC Gaza documentary speaks out.
In his first interview with Middle East Eye, Gaza: How to Survive a War Zone's 13-year-old narrator Abdullah al-Yazuri speaks out after the BBC removed the documentary.

Indigenous peoples have lived in and moved thru Yosemite since time immemorial but the bbc's chronic colonizer mindset is incurable
honestly this is just a weirdly long noun phrase to have as the subject of a headline. you keep waiting for the verb and it's all the way at the end
Thankfully, the guilty parties have been punished...
The BBC has explained it had no choice but to pull its documentary Gaza: How to Survive a Warzone from iPlayer because it told the truth about Israel. At a time when counter-terrorism police are tirelessly clamping down on social media users, the last thing we need is the BBC amplifying the facts.
The Gaza documentary came under scathing criticism from supporters of genocide because it showed the true scale of the destruction in Gaza. Even worse, it humanised the conflict by telling the stories of four children.
Genocide supporters could not point to any factual inaccuracy in the documentary, but they do not like one of the children involved and feel his suffering should be dismissed. They say the children have been “manipulated by terrorists” into thinking its bad that Israel blew up their neighbourhood and killed their friends and family.
Genocide supporters say they don’t like one of the documentary’s cameramen and feel the incriminating evidence he filmed should be disregarded. The BBC would have sent its own cameramen into Gaza, however, the last thing Israel wants is for you to see what it has done.
The documentary’s producers remotely directed two cameramen over a period of nine months to gain access to places western journalists are not supposed to see. They revealed the ongoing airstrikes and humanitarian catastrophes inside Gaza’s so-called “safe zones”. Israel considers this subverting of its truth embargo an “act of terrorism” and is planning retaliatory airstrikes against the cameramen.
The MPs who have been bought by Israel are concerned the BBC has a pro-Hamas bias. They questioned whether money was paid to any member of Hamas because it’s only acceptable for money to exchange hands when Israeli lobbyists are bribing politicians.
MPs have insisted the BBC describe Hamas as a “terror organisation” at every opportunity, but in the interests of neutrality, it should never mention that Netanyahu and Gallant are wanted for genocide.
why state a fact when you can falsely imply experts are lying 🤪

Raffi Berg, now at the center of a media scandal over the BBC’s Israel coverage, once worked for a known CIA front and collaborated with Mos
A senior BBC editor at the center of an ongoing scandal into the network’s systematic pro-Israel bias is, in fact, a former member of a CIA propaganda outfit, MintPress News can reveal. Raffi Berg, an Englishman who heads the BBC’s Middle East desk, formerly worked for the U.S. State Department’s Foreign Broadcast Information Service, a unit that, by his own admission, was a CIA front group.
I know this is a very minor criticism compared to the racism, transphobia, genocide apologism, legitimising of fascist violence etc but something else I've noticed about the BBC recently is they just do not bother putting any effort into any article relating to the railways
So many use outdated images, muddle simple details, and often outright just act as a platform for opponents to any rail project - see this one for example in which the 'analysis' from the BBC completely derails the focus of the article to talk about roads instead https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cx2mnz9xejyo - as a transport advocate it pisses me off no end
Look ofc there are bigger and smaller issues but those are features of subpar journalism! the news that peddles itself as peak journalism and objective fact to keep people informed invested in its representation of issues should not be muddling details or using misleading images! I don't have the knowledge of rails or transportation infrastructure generally to add much to this but I welcome any details.
The aforementioned "analysis" on an article headlined "Railway sorely in need of investment, study finds" is below for the curious.
The BBC have violated their own reporting/impartiality guidelines over 1500 times during the Israel-Gaza war. You are not immune to propaganda, babe.
