Corporation claims it needs to review programme content and removes it from its iPlayer service The iPlayer programme page this morning. The BBC has removed its documentary ‘Gaza: How to Surv…
Reason for the film's removal TLDR narrator is son of a civil servant in Gaza Department of Agriculture. Racist genocide enthusiasts call this son of Hamas official. Aka genocide coverup
Not sure what the private media/journalism ownership is here, one of the many things I keep meaning to inform myself about. Obviously the BBC is meant to be an independent, unbiased source of information. In Canada the CBC fulfills the same niche. Neither are safe from outside pressure, or lazy reporting.
The vast majority of private journalism media in Canada is owned by Canadian media holding conglomerate Postmedia(bit too on the nose if you ask me). It's in turn 66% owned by American Media Conglomerate Chatham Asset Management. It's a bit of a piss take, as media in Canada is meant to be majority Canadian ownership. But there it is.
Excellent comment. I try to keep up with who owns what too, but it's kinda like keeping track of food brands. There only so many owners, but the huge amount of brands (news sources) can make it difficult.
It's not a torrent, daily motion is like a youtube or vimeo competitor. There's torrents of it too though, but I dunno what public trackers are good these days.
It has been taken down because the kid involved is the son of a Hamas official, so there's questions surrounding the authenticity and accuracy of the reporting. He's not an ordinary Palestinian.
By that logic, Israel's a fascist ethnostate committing genocide, so we shouldn't show their reporting because "there's questions around the authenticity and accuracy of their reporting".
