But you judge US politics and media 🤔Another US based organisation, this one founded by someone who was previously a Republican administrator.
In the US they even think the Democrats are left wing and not simply more liberal than Republicans! So hardly fit to judge our media.

It’s all about the context
incoming 😂
The following article is why I do not have blind trust n anything the BBC reports:
www.bbc.com
The headline state the path is open, great. But read through the article and only 80% is actually open and the rest expected by the end of the year. Why not put that in the headline?
And don't get me started on the BBC Verified. I would have thought that everything they post, as a news broadcaster, would have been verified before being put out, but now I can only assume that anything that isn't verified must only be speculation and contain assumptions.
World's longest coastal path opens in England to the public
The King Charles coastal path will allow walkers right of access to the entire coast for the first time.

The Verified unit is there to check up on other media outlets especially social media, it's not their to verify the BBC output. Which is why I don't trust it. They pick holes in other people's output but look away when it's theirs.The following article is why I do not have blind trust n anything the BBC reports:

They said nothing about the Panorama programme and when finally did comment it was to point out the above.
Of course they blindly ignored the fact that that scandal was wildly reported across social media and MSM so they should have verified it if not from the BBC side then that MSM and SM were reporting the facts correctly.
The BBC has demonstrated many time that it is not to be trusted in marking it's own homework.

I have opinions, certainly, but am not an organisation being quoted in the USA as representative of opinion there. If I tried to claim I was I would be rightly ridiculed.

Possibly because the headline is accurate and does what any headline does. Give the briefest summary. The text contains the detail. BBC Verify is an extremely valuable resource in these days of misinformation produced by AI. Of course the News Department verify things, separately, before being broadcasted. If they cannot they either don’t broadcast or add a caveat.The following article is why I do not have blind trust n anything the BBC reports:

They said nothing about the Panarama programme because there was nothing to say. Nobody at all spotted the poor editing until much later and the story being told was entirely accurate.
The way, on occasions, you post suggest you KNOW rather than it being an opinion. Others whose opinions are different to yours, are wrong, according to you.
I'm more and more convinced he's a troll account

He can fight his own corner but, in fairness, that criticism covers pretty much every poster on here.

Being called a troll when you've been on HOL for over 20 years is poor form, quite right about fighting your own corner, but really wanted to say something.
