After investigatory report found BBC violated its own guidelines 1,500 times in its reporting on the Israel-Gaza war during the first four months of the war, top BBC officials grilled by Parliament.
The leadership of the British Broadcasting Corporation vowed Wednesday the British media giant outlet would probe allegations of anti-Israel bias in its coverage of the war in Gaza, including a recent report asserting that the BBC violated its own guidelines over 1,500 times.
BBC chairman Samir Shah and Director-General Tim Davie were summoned to respond to questions in the House of Lords Wednesday regarding allegations against the news agency, after a report by The Telegraph found that during the first four months of the war between Israel and the Hamas terror organization, the BBC violated its own reporting guidelines at least 1,500 times.
Shah acknowledged the criticism of the BBC‘s coverage of the Gaza war, but appeared to downplay allegations of bias, saying the issue was “complicated” and surrounded by “strong emotions.”
