Celebrities, athletes, politicians, influencers and even royalty can all land in the firing line.

  • Journalism?

    I listened the episode “Trump, the bbc, the $1bn dollar threat”, and nowhere in the episode there was a reckoning, an admission of even a mistake. The host and her guest spent the episode giving arguments on how the BBC could defend itself in a lawsuit, basically on how to cover their bum with no reckoning of any type. Do you think us listeners are stupid?. I don’t like Trump, but that is not an excuse to publish a lie. How can you claim to defend truth and objectivity if you fall in worse mista... more
