'Some truth'.
He categorically claimed that immigrants had been taking and eating pets in Springfield. It's a specific charge, not a general observation, and it isn't true. You choose to call that 'nit-picking'. Oh well.

Neither of us know whether that's happened in Springfield or not and as the number of people from backward cultures is massively on the rise in America thanks to the transparent Democrats it just as well could be.
Trump verbalised rumour as a statement.....yeah, not great but it's no different to his opposition's claims about 'fascism' and the 'end of elections'.

Your fixation upon one point exclusively applied to Trump, while ignoring the reality of the lie-fest that constitutes American elections is quite frustrating. You stated that it wasn't true, which you simply don't know either.

Even the kids ? cmon, we all know that the number one target for political & ideological indoctrination is always the youth. Vlad Putin has been doing this for 30 years, to shore up his power-base. As did every other political mover & shaker in history.
who cares if the feckers in the retirement home are UK patriotic, xenophobic and Christian ? they will be dead soon anyway.

I'd argue that whereas most of Europe have classified them as a Terrorist Organisation, there are plenty that haven't, and some that only have described part of their group as such. In the interests of neutrality, isn't it better to let the 'user' decide whether they are terrorists rather than pushing opinions ?
Furthermore, Looking at the recent conflict, I'm not so sure that in that Israel aren't doing much different. Why are they not classified as such with their recent tactics of invasion and callous nature of their 'responses'?
I'd rather our press offer such neutrality rather than attempt to push their own (or others) biased opinions on our children. present the facts only please.
Oh dear Alex Scott is feeling let down by the BBC. Is that a lawsuit I hear coming?
Seriously Alex if your show was a hit you would be up their grinning and collecting awards but it wasn't and so you do have to carry the can. Yup take responsibility but of course you prefer playing the victim.
Perhaps the BBC is finally learning that being black, lesbian and a woman may tick several of the DEI boxes but it doesn't mean that the public like you.
I often say it's not a popularity contest but when it comes to entertainment I'm afraid it is. Perhaps the new DG is finally getting to grips with the "talent" oops not allowed to say that.
Anyway good luck to the BBC as for Alex I wish her no ill will but she needs to understand that the BBC gave her a shot and she blew it, better luck next time just not on the taxpayers licence please.

'Deeply hurt' Alex Scott considers quitting BBC in row over show
Alex Scott is reportedly considering leaving the BBC after she was left 'seriously hurt' by criticism of her sports programme, Football Focus

FFS it was clearly a made up story that Trump has run with and he has refused to back pedal when challenged.
However, there is evidence that Trump is trying to put his own electors into the electoral colleges to ensure he gets their votes, regardless of who 'won' the vote. This was also tried in 2020, after pro-Trump Republicans in seven US states created their own electors in a bid to overturn the election results.
So if these electors vote for Trump regardless of the actual 'vote' then in effect that is the end of elections.
The fact you are defending one statement and comparing it with the other is just ridiculous.

i beg to disagree. The BBC have been pedalling untalented tosh for decades. The only thing that matters to them is the license fee. And if nobody watches the BBC anymore, the beeb probably care not-a-jot.

So that’s a biased opinion about Israel
( a non terrorist run country) you are pushing.
A tad ironic 🤔
