Cowards. Hopefully channel 4 will pick it up.
World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

We aren't the baddies, we just can't be the goodies today, tomorrow honey.
We aren't the baddies we are just so concerned with criticism that we are happy to look the other way.
BBC's decision raises concerns of impartiality.
People and companies are deathly afraid of being called "antisemitic". So threats, bullying, and repression are allowed to happen constantly, even as zionists are only something like 1% of the world's population. "Antisemitism" now means anything short of full support of whatever the state of Israel wants, and even bringing this topic up is said to be antisemitic.
The very use of the word "Palestinian" is said to itself be a genocide.

BBC is just not well equipped to deal with that sort of pressure.
The BBC is a Tory mouthpiece, just as it has been for the past decade. Starmer should have cleaned house as soon as he got into office, and implemented Leveson 2.0 at the same time. Instead, the state is funding propaganda that benefits one party.
The BBC thinks the facts are too ugly to face.
because the medic incident proved that it's impossible to arrive to any other conclusion other than that Israel systematically engages in a state-sanctioned government-ordered UK-supplied-and-directed genocidal ethnic cleansing and that Israel routinely plans and executes coverups for their war crimes as often and as much possible.
Reminder, the IOF burned and buried the ambulance itself, and waited in ambush and killed the medics who came to rescue the first mudered workers thinking one may still be alive. This only came to news after a video in the phone of one of the buried medics.
At this point and with how much support Israel has received from the international community, no government is willing to admit how complicit they've been in this genocide, even if it is as clear as your comment/the medic incident makes it, so they're just going to keep pretending.
Coward! Israel lovers. BBC bought and paid for by Netanyahu.
As the article mentions, this is not even the first BBC documentary on Palestine that the BBC have pulled from their service after public pressure this year. They pulled one about kids in Palestine in February - after complaints from all the usual Zionist warhawks, including J.K. Rowling.

The BBC have also pulled documentaries over less - merely "possibly upsetting conservative viewers with truth" is enough. Their leadership are spineless.
These are the medics that were murdered?
Whose concerns, exactly?
They're transferring ownership of the project to the independent production company that produced it so it may still see the light of day.
