The British news network BBC has over the years been accused several times of deliberate anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian bias.
Its position regarding the manner in which the coverage is constructed in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is currently under further test, against the background of two investigations published on the matter.
In the first case, a senior producer at the British Broadcasting Corporation, Rosie Garethwait, who is currently preparing a documentary on "Israeli activity" in East Jerusalem, admitted that she deliberately distributed "inaccurate" Palestinian anti-Israel propaganda, including a map. A fabrication of President Trump's peace plan, ostensibly indicative of a "loss of Palestinian land" to Israel.
This is according to the "Jewish Chronicle".
This is not an exceptional case for her, but a continuing pattern of Gareth White, who has a history of anti-Israel activity, full of lies and biases on the Internet.
Among other things, she claimed that Israel controls the "one" border in Gaza (Gaza is known to border with Egypt) as well as retweeted a tweet glorifying Palestinian political activist Ehad Tamimi ("symbol of Palestinian resistance") who served eight months in Israel after being convicted of assaulting an IDF officer and soldier To incitement and interference with IDF forces.
In another matter concerning the British Broadcasting Corporation, last week the BBC began an investigation against the corporation's veteran foreign news reporter, Nimesh Tucker, who opened a Twitter account anonymously nicknamed: Not That Bothered, in which he used to slander Israel and made antisemitic insults - among other things he called it "A white state of supremacy."
According to the Jewish Chronicle, the account supported the harsh antisemitic tweets of Jackie Walker, a former Labor activist who was expelled from the party after being accused of anti-Semitism, and Kerry Ann Mendoza, who was known as a clear defender of former Labor leader Jeremy Corbyn. And in its environment anti-Semitism.
A BBC spokesman said the corporation took these allegations very seriously, "and although we cannot take personal matters into account, we are conducting reliable processes in investigating such cases as a matter of urgency".
The current publications have spawned a series of references from various bodies in the kingdom.
The Minister of Strategic Affairs, Orit Farkash HaCohen, told Israel Today on the subject that "in a reality where social networks have become a wild west of Pike News and hate speech, it is unfortunate to see that media people in traditional media are passionate and lead such a discourse."
The British Anti-Semitism Campaign stated that "the BBC is a serial offender when it comes to anti-Semitism and this is reflected in its difficult relationship with the Jewish community."
