What a crass comment. Typical of the vacuous left.

 

But what an upgrade Leavitt is from the liar in chief for Biden's regime, Sideshow Bob.

She changed to an Independent and is writing "a tell all book).

When asked about reports that Israeli forces opened fire near an aid distribution centre in Gaza, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt criticised the BBC's coverage of the deadly incident.

 

She accused the corporation of taking down a report because it lacked evidence.

 

Her claims were swiftly rejected by the BBC, as France 24's Charlotte Hughes explains.

 

No, the BBC did not remove a report about Gaza with 'multiple headlines' | Watch

Even the BBC's own staff are questioning them. 

 

"Despite the focus on Verify, some consider the criticism it faces to be a symptom of the BBC’s wider failure to properly report on events in Gaza."

 

BBC fact-checker service under scrutiny after White House attack

The row has renewed scrutiny on BBC Verify, the broadcaster’s “fact-checking” service and a pet project of Turness, as it embarks on a recruitment drive, international push and launch of a live webpage.
Unveiled two years ago to combat disinformation, it has a 60-strong team of journalists who use open-source data, satellite imagery and forensic techniques to fact-check information and verify social media videos.

I didn't think I could like Leavitt any more than I already do, but then she starts openly mocking the completely biased and inept BBC. 😆

 

She's gold. Absolute gold. 

 

Gorgeous too.

She was made for this, or  should I say exposing the bias of the Washington DC & foreign woke Press Corp.

Think you'll find the BBC is questioning the audacity of lies out of the WH? Lying Leavitt wasn't even holding up a BBC web page piece of paper when she spouted her biased agenda from the WH podium whilst lecturing journalists how to do their job. She was shamelessly holding up a social media account that misrepresented the BBC objective news report.

BBC verify could not even get the correct profile description of that social media account correct and who the author is.
