Watch: BBC Admits It ‘Misled’ Public About Pro-Palestinian Demonstrations in UK
The BBC had to backtrack after it described pro-Palestine demonstrations that took place in the UK over the weekend as “pro-Hamas” protests.
A BBC anchor was tasked with owning up to the network’s slanderous mischaracterization of the demonstrators, admitting it was “poorly phrased.”
“Now, before we go, earlier on BBC News, we reported on some of the pro-Palestinian demonstrations at the weekend,” the anchor says.
“We spoke about several demonstrations across Britain during which people voiced their backing for Hamas. We accept that this was poorly phrased and was a misleading description of the pro-Palestinian demonstrations. Now here’s the weather.”
The British network was slammed on social media by people claiming their disingenuous description of the protesters was deliberate.
@BBCNews didn’t just poorly phrase description of Palistine protest but they did so deliberately. BBC’s partisan position is clear from their reporting as we have had several examples.

It was not “poorly phrased” it was a deliberate smear and the BBC knows once they broadcast it the lie lives on indefinitely.
The @BBCNews are just following the Israeli playbook of smearing anyone who supports Palestinians as card carrying member of Hamas.
It’s disgraceful.

…curious how even their apology for spreading disinformation is once again ‘poorly phrased’… 🤔

She says it was “poorly phrased” but not that it was untrue. Why are they so incapable of apologising properly?

Mealy mouthed. “Poorly phrased” isn’t the same as outrageous lies and smears.

This doesn’t feel like an apology or true recognition of what happened and their failings?
Poorly phrased, it was a damn right lie, from what I understand the number of pro Hamas supporters was minimal at best and inconsequential compared to the number of Palestinian supporters.

Are they going to put forward this correction on the 18:00 and 22:00 news? Or just bury it like this..

The mainstream media back-peddling comes as Israel reportedly prepares for a siege on Gaza through a ground invasion.
