Eager to see the full report Monday. They already are rejecting the methodology of using term frequency and LLM post processing but those were likely used just to find the examples. Let’s see them defend the full deep dive.

From the article: **A spokesperson for the BBC said the corporation would “carefully consider” the research but denied claims of bias, and questioned the researchers’ methodology.**
Well then, I expect BBC to provide convincing rebuttal (with proof) that will convince others to believe that BBC is not biased.
Seriously though, 1500 documented examples, and their response is “Nuh-Uh!”

There are 380 million Arabic speakers in the world that are getting bombarded with antisemitic propaganda that has the audacity to call itself “news” and “journalism” (mostly talking about AJ and BBC) and we supposed to believe that this is normal, that there is no foul play at hand.
I hope this stream of propaganda will dry out once Russia breaks apart and the IRGC regime is broken.

BBC 🤝 Manchester City
It was 1501 actually.
They’re more like guidelines, anyway 🏴☠
matti friedman had it right ten years ago:

“We don’t think coverage can be assessed solely by counting particular words divorced from context.”
Quite right.
“Why did Israel force us to breach our guidelines!!”- BBC
Are they saying it is more or is it less?
