I of course provide a link at the bottom of my page so you can read the whole story.
It’s a revelation of BBC hubris.
It’s about Scottish politics, so unless you’re into that febrile blend of oddities…
…and intolerants…
ooooo
….you may not be too interested – …
…except insofar as UK Pravda’s malpractice is concerned…

The devil is not in the detail…
Ofcom said that was insufficient because of the gravity of Davidson’s allegations; the fact World at One broadcast them at length without any alternative perspectives, such as Sturgeon’s stance; and its failure to tell listeners they could hear more on this later that day on Radio 4..

…but in the denouement, the stunningly arrogant UK Pravda response!

The BBC said it noted the Ofcom ruling, but is not obliged to broadcast or announce it…
…
What the Hell?
No matter it’s the SNP ( which I detest) that’s got a judgement against BBC for unfair treatment.
Who do these uppity BBC elitists think they are, to boast that they’ll simply shrug off…

….and cover-up a ruling that damns their disregard of professional standards?
Hubris is indeed the word!
Their supercilious, condescending, downright contemptuous retort to a well-deserved slap-down by a statutory body….
( and again, I have no high opinion of OfCom but when it’s rulings are made, a snotty brush-off by those ruled against is not the usual outcome!)

…should be the main story in UK media…

….and around the world.

Never trust the BBC.
They are completely unprincipled.
