Classic #BBC cowardice.
They won't admonish Fiona Bruce for minimising Domestic Violence but they'll censor 'woke' Sir #DavidAttenborough

BBC will not broadcast Attenborough episode over fear of β€˜rightwing backlash’

Exclusive: Decision to make episode about natural destruction available only on iPlayer angers programme-makers

The Guardian
UPDATE: They silenced another critic of the Government who is contracted by the #BBC #GaryLineker
You Yanks want to talk about 'slow coups' , I've got one for you right here....it's called #Brexit https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-64920557
Gary Lineker to step back from presenting MOTD

Gary Lineker to step back from presenting Match of the Day until agreement reached on social media use - BBC statement

BBC News
@Lazarou ffs it's not even a proper employee but a freelance and they want to regulate his use of Twitter. The BBC is utterly ridiculous
@alx they don't care how they look and that's a story in itself!
@Lazarou Is there any sharp storyteller to offer us a fantastic story on how the BBC has become 'British Broadcasting Conservatives'?
@alx I find the @[email protected] network a good place to start, they've plenty of articles on how crooked the once beloved #BBC has become.
And any Foreign media will be honest about it, because UKGOV can't lean on them.
@Lazarou Let's not forget how David Attenborough also managed to upset a lot of left wingers with his hard-nosed views on overpopulation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Attenborough#Human_population

What’s that β€œnormal” counter on tweets :D?
@Lazarou Cowards. Why are we catering to the worst of us?
@Yup_Its_Holly because they are cowards who bend the knee to Fascism and tell us off for pointing it out.

@Lazarou

FFS!!!

Poor little right wing snowflakes may be upset ❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️

@Lazarou
If there was every even the slightest doubt in my mind about which narrative I would listen to, seeing Attenborough cancelled so as not to offend the right, would just about blow that doubt away.
And ofc it's clear which narritive the BBC bias panders to.
@MostlyTato they have such contempt for the British people and our intelligence they don't care what they look like.
See the manufactured outrage over #GaryLineker, while silence over one of their other presenters minimising Domestic Violence last night ("Stanley Johnson only hit his wife once")
It's disgusting, and FASCIST
@Lazarou American here who lived in England for a few years. Any discussion taking about possibly not paying your TV tax? Enjoy watching Sir David Attenborough and hope that this gets reversed.
@Lazarou honestly, it's disgraceful. But I don't think silencing a National Treasure will end well for them....
@Lazarou
Dearest Auntie, (yeh I'm thay old 😁) . If Sir David McBoatface (😁sry) has somthing to say as regards the natural world. One would suggest that you "AKA BBC"
Play it in its entirety and we will decide what's best for us πŸ€¦πŸΌβ€β™‚οΈ
Or you could go back to playing Bach quartets as you did Before!! David Attenborough had better ideas ... Or did you conveniently forget he wasn't always a presenter.
@Lazarou it’s not cowardice it’s by design. The Tories installed their guy as head of the BBC exactly for this purpose.
@Lazarou Most pathetic thing I’ve read all day. Wow.
@Lazarou The Beeb has become nothing but a Tory mouthpiece.
@Lazarou Can you please edit out "share_btn_tw" from the bbc link? Thanks.
@ThePolishDispatch sure. What does that do/stop btw?
@Lazarou This particular bit provides back statistics to BBC whis say that whoever clicked that link did it using 'share on twitter button'.
@Lazarou holy crap BBC. Just sign off. It seems you already don’t allow legitimate reporting.
@Janef not even a figleaf covering it all now, is there?

@Lazarou

There are plenty of things in the world that has "two-sides"...destroying the thing that is keeping humans alive is not one of them. The BBC are cowards.

@julescelt01 it's so disgusting and blatant, and #SirDavidAttenborough too, no other person left alive could be said to have "made the BBC" but him!
@Lazarou Why would rewilding specifically be "a concept that has been controversial in some rightwing circles"?
@mysteriarch perhaps because of their love of grouse shooting, and the unnatural landscape they use to hunt them in.
Also, they're all massive landowners and want money out of that land
@Lazarou so right wind feelings are getting in the way of the truth and leading to things being canceled. Clown world I swear.
@Lazarou What?!
BBC defends Fiona Bruce over Stanley Johnson domestic abuse remarks

The comment angered many.

Metro.co.uk
@Lazarou Wow! They'd aren't having a good week.
@Lazarou What incredible cowards. They should not be allowed to use the word β€œNews” referring to their pathetic rag!
