This is important — hacks like Chris Mason boldly spew spurious statements on prime time airwaves, but when they’re caught out, the correction (if any) is a tiny bit that hardly anyone will notice. It’s all deliberate.
This is partly why I don’t bother with the BBC for new or politics anymore.

Mason's misinformation was the top news item for two days. Not a bulletin went by on national TV or Radio in which he didn't put in a shift. Today he is NOWHERE to be found, of course.
The correction was given 25 seconds, at the end of News at 6, "in other news", just before an item about Santas.

Last year Sky News was rending its garments over Starmer's free eyeglasses: WHAT INFLUENCE DID LORD ALLI BUY?
Now, RefUK get £9m from a crypto bro, they have not one word about the donor's interests; just BRAVO NIGEL, barely concealed glee, and "what a huge boost... money goes where momentum is". 🤡

Wait…so it wasn't all part of Rachel Reeves' evil master plan to cause chaos, mislead everybody or test the waters!?
I knew there had to be exaggeration going on in the media and there was no reason why she would be especially incompetent. So glad I trusted my instinct.

I agree with everyone who says the media are trying to pull this government and, in particular, the female Ministers down. Of course the older members of us know that Neil Kinnock, Cherie Blair, Michael Foot, Ed Milliband and many others suffered too. Nothing new. Sadly. Capitalists rule the Media.
