Following the two BBC research accounts because I'm genuinely interested to see what a news outlet can do on the fediverse.
but also
Interested to see if BBC filters the content it publishes over here so that they're not reported for racism and transphobia 🤷🏻♀️

@tess That's the right way to look at it, for me.
I saw what was basically an infomercial on the news the other night. That should not be possible. I come from the UK and the Beeb for their faults at least have standards they're supposed to follow. It is shocking to me the level of editorialising and blatant commercialism I see on US news.
@tess This is 27 years old but it almost feels real now.

@sullybiker This is why I think there's a chance for the BBC to survive here.
But they're going to have to pick and choose whether to publish everything or hold back articles by some of their shittier writers.
