The Telegraph has published its "editorial view" on the recent BBC resignations, claiming that they want "to ask legitimate questions about the accuracy of its journalism". If only The Telegraph would hold their own reporting to the same standards. 1/2

final note for this shocking episode: Rebecca Brooks might have resigned at the time, but she didn’t stay gone for long… she’s now the CEO of News UK, i.e., in charge of Rupert Murdoch's media empire in the UK.

Too many. Media reform is the only way to regain a functioning country. With big name 'quality' papers spewing out this drivel daily no wonder we aren't a serious country anymore. Misinformation is rotting our brains. I support @hackedoff.bsky.social & their call for reform & accountability.

BSkyB explainer - another media mega corp that Rupert Murdoch wanted control of - to add to his long list. It would have reduced the choice of UK TV news providers. Less choice, more Murdoch. Sound familiar? #TheHack
