It looks like the Prescott Report has damning evidence of not only BBC's Trump-bias, but BBC's pro-Hamas bias*. I'm wondering what else it has exposed at BBC. It's amazing that it has taken so long for the BBC's shenanigans, skulduggery and activist journalism to be exposed. I wonder if BBC and main stream journalists think they are really supposed to be Agent Provocateurs with a license to kill.

*Waiting on, "This is my shocked face.". Three, two, one .....

BBC's bias 'pushed Hamas lies around the world'
Leaked dossier says corporation's Arabic service boosted terror group's claims and minimised Israeli suffering

Gordon Rayner, Associate Editor 04 November 2025 12:30pm GMT

The BBC's Arabic news service chose to "minimise Israeli suffering" in the war in Gaza so it could "paint Israel as the aggressor", according to an internal report by a whistleblower...

Now we have the evidence. The BBC knowingly helped spread Hamas lies and hate

The leaked Prescott Report is a devastating document. It is an insider's account of serious and widespread failings of impartiality, systemic bias and activist journalism spanning years of BBC news coverage.

It lays bare for the first time how senior BBC executives repeatedly tried to dismiss, downplay or excuse these failings in a total abdication of their responsibilities. In doing so, they failed to uphold the highest standards of public service journalism we must expect of the BBC.

Michael Prescott is a serious and respected journalist. As an adviser to the BBC's Editorial Standards Committee for three years he had regular and detailed access to evidence of the BBC's journalistic failures and groupthink.

Protecting the BBC's reputation came before the duties and principles enshrined in the BBC's Charter obligations.

Following disclosure of the BBC's journalistic failings in its American Presidential election coverage, the revelations concerning the full extent of bias in the BBC's coverage of the Israel-Hamas war are frankly shocking.

When The Telegraph earlier this year revealed the poisonous anti-Semitic social media posts of journalists regularly used by BBC Arabic, the BBC sought to downplay their role. Public statements referred to the men as "eyewitnesses" and "not BBC members of staff or part of the BBC's reporting team".

This leaked memo reveals that one of those men, Samer Elzaenen who called on social media for Jews to be burnt as "Hitler did" appeared on BBC Arabic 244 times between November 2023 and April 2025.....

The media has a pro-Hamas and anti-Israel bias.

"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

On October 16, 1946, a man named Julius Streicher was hanged in Nuremberg.

He wasn't an SS officer. He wasn't a concentration camp guard. He wasn't a munitions manufacturer. He was "just" a newspaper editor.

But Streicher's articles and speeches had been so virulently antisemitic and incendiary that he was considered partly responsible for the Holocaust, and therefore was sentenced to death.

We need a similar trial for the Western apologists for October 7, 2023.

When you tear out a man's tongue, you are not proving him a liar, you're only telling the world that you fear what he might say.

Britain is ruled by the Mohammadeans at almost every level now. This is not a shocker at all.

The BBC would commonly use the "Gaza ministry of health" (Hamas) numbers to report on total amount of dead. That alone shows a bias.

And then dumbass readers wouldn't notice that source part of it or know what it means and would take those numbers as fact.

That's very true. The impact of the lie and smear campaign he presided shouldn't be understimated, and the correctness of the verdict.

Similarly, the Rwandan massacre was much enabled by their media.

They should definitely be among those dealt with after a tyranny's collapse.

Yeah, the BBC has been propping up Hamas ridiculously and blaming Israel shamelessly. Not very objective at all. Rather pathetic, honestly.

I bet you could take a Julius Streicher article, translate it to English, replace any words referring to Jews with "sis white males", and get ir published in the New York times today.

It's really strange that the gold standard news organization in the UK (and arguably abroad) that is fully funded by the UK government would exhibit bias on this.

Just odd.

What IS surprising is the speed of this about-face. Hollywood and MSM went from Jewish entwined to Islamic apologists in just a few years. It seems as if Harvey Weinstein's fall flipped a switch.

It's also a complete lie. The horrid tragedy that happened to Israel was on October 7. The mass-death that happened to the civilians in Gaza happened the following several years. What more can be said about October 7 that hasn't?

Except for wider reporting of the fact Netanyahu and Israel's government (and every Israeli newspaper) admitted Israel intentionally propped up Hamas to keep Hamas in power of Gaza since at least 2019 in an effort prevent a 2-state-solution…and that Israel was aware of the incoming Hamas attack for over a year in advance as every credible news agency has reported.

I will say, if Trump is able to establish a 2-state-solution despite Israel being against it, then bravo to Trump and he should be congratulated so long as Israel isn't the security force inside Palestine. I don't remember Trump ever saying Israel should stop bombing the safe-zones where civilians were routinely targeted just to get like one random Hamas person amongst a crowd of civilians inside a refugee camp safe-zone, but a 2-state-solution could make up for that. He can even build his hotels and golf courses on the bones and graves of dead civilians in Gaza like he's requested.

There should never be a two state solution.
