(Jewish Group) BBC made misjudgement in coverage of anti-Semitic incident, regulator says
The BBC made a "serious editorial misjudgement" in its coverage of an anti-Semitic incident in London last year and failed to observe guidelines on impartiality and accuracy, British media regulator Ofcom said on Monday.
Ofcom, which regulates the corporation, said the British public broadcaster had not breached its broadcasting code but it still found "significant editorial failings" in the reporting of the November 2021 incident in which Jewish bus passengers were subjected to verbal abuse.
The BBC reported that an audio recording made during the incident included anti-Muslim slurs, but failed to promptly report evidence that the initial interpretation of that recording was disputed, Ofcom said.
"The BBC made a serious editorial misjudgement by not reporting on air, at any point, that the claim it had made about anti-Muslim slurs was disputed, once new evidence emerged," the regulator said.

And so it goes. This is so fucking common. Jews are attacked, then we are blamed for any consequences or backlash to the anti-Semitism, or it is downplayed and we, Jews, are reminded we are not a "real" minority as others have it worse.
