Bbc Faces Questions Over Gaza Film's Hamas Link

[naomi24]

//The culture secretary has said she will raise concerns with BBC bosses about a documentary on Gaza that was narrated by the son of a Hamas official.

The broadcaster has been criticised for Gaza: How To Survive A War Zone, which centred on a 13-year-old boy who is the son of Hamas's deputy minister of agriculture.

Lisa Nandy said she would discuss the matter with the BBC's director general and chairman, "particularly around the way in which they sourced the people who were featured in the programme".

The BBC said it had not been informed of the family connection in advance by the film's production company, and has apologised "for the omission of that detail".

The BBC has added a message to the start of the programme on its iPlayer streaming service, making clear the family link, and saying the production team had "full editorial control".//

This programme has clearly not been made from an impartial viewpoint.   Should the BBC take it down?

I sometimes wonder if there is Russian or Chinese Bots on this site.Just saying like.

[naomi24]

It's not simply my opinion, untitled.  You often tell me what I think, and you're invariably wrong.

Like when for example?

[naomi24]

I'll remind you next time you do it.

[sandyRoe]

How could anyone know it's not impartial?

Did the child give us a glimpse of what it's like to live in an abattoir or had he been tutored to give an explanation of the Hamas viewpoint?

Did the child give us a glimpse of what it's like to live in an abattoir

sandyRoe, in answer to your question, yes he was tutored.  Young people in Gaza are educated by Hamas.  That should tell you all you need to know.

 

BBC News at Ten tonight showed footage of the occupants of three of those coffins being taken hostage by Hamas murderers on 7 October - a terrified young mother frantically clutching her two babies to her trying to protect them - and it was horrendous to watch - so stop with the embroidered emotive language, sandyRoe.  The  abbatoire became a reality on 7 October.  Hamas are not heroes - they are barbarians.

[naomi24]

It's reported this morning that the body of the mother of the two dead children is not among those in the coffins.  Her fate is unknown.

[naomi24]

The BBC has pulled the documentary.  Not before time.
