WHAT'S WRONG ABOUT TELLING THE TRUTH ?

What is wrong with the British public and its relationship to the BBC? It seems to be in a complete muddle over what was essentially an accurate telling of a story related to President Trump. What is being perceived as an editing error and therefore possibly lacking in impartiality, was, despite the perceived error, completely factual reporting. Mr Trump did use the words that were broadcast and did incite a riot at the capitol on the 6th January 2021. Of that, there is no doubt. The United States conducted its own government enquiry and found that was indeed the case. The entire history of Trump’s attempt at overthrowing a peaceful transition of power  begins from the moment of his defeat in the 2020 election in November of that year. Indeed the pressure that was being applied all over the country and particularly in the State of Georgia was called out by election official Gabriel Sterling on the 1st December 2020. As a reminder, I add here again the press conference, given by Mr Sterling at the time. You may have to click the video to watch on YouTube.

The impact of Trump’s continuing opposition to the election result continued throughout the remainder of his term, culminating in his incitement to violence on the 6th January 2021. The words were spoken in that speech that was edited together by the Panorama Program and broadcast by the BBC. The editing may have been faulty but there was no misrepresentation of the events nor of the President’s intent.  Therefore for the BBC to even apologise to this felon or even consider giving him a single penny in compensation would be a disaster, a capitulation not only to a bully, but a proven fraudster, gangster and sex offender. 

I cannot stress strongly enough that the truth does matter. Bad editing is not lying. To capitulate over this apparent lapse of alleged impartiality is a joke. The program showed the truth about Trump. What is more important than that? All the rest of this grand standing  about BBC failures and lack of judgement and impartiality is a disgrace. Yes it has its problems but this is not one of them, It told the TRUTH. Mr Trump spoke those words. It was not made up. It was part of his speech. Why does that not penetrate? 

 

Do not let the current dismay and ridiculous unwarranted  resignations distract from the reality. To give in to Trump attempting to seize another opportunity to gaslight the world into believing that he has been defamed in any way is ludicrous. For goodness sake, stand up and fight back. Get a grip and some perspective. There is no defamation in telling the truth.  It has got to stop.
