One for them likes of Capital Man, Pickle and joyo - you love to be told what to think by your government controlled media outlets. What do you make of this then? Unbelievable hypocrisy for that fact checker or , it’s ok to lie if you are on the side of truth. I can already guess what you will choose. BEEB ‘LIAR’ BBC’s chief fact-checker Marianna Spring accused of lying on CV by falsely claiming to have worked with Beeb colleague Holly Christodoulou Published: 9:57, 8 Sep 2023 THE BBC's chief fact-checker is at the centre of claims she lied about her experience on her CV. Marianna Spring, who works as the broadcaster's disinformation correspondent, reportedly gave misleading information to secure work. She claimed she worked alongside BBC correspondent Sarah Rainsford covering the "perception" of Russia during the 2018 World Cup, The New European reports. Marianna allegedly wrote on her CV: "June 2018: Reported on International News during the World Cup, specifically the perception of Russia, with BBC correspondent Sarah Rainsford." The journalist made the apparent claim five years ago while trying to get work as a freelancer in Moscow for US-based news site Coda Story. According to the publication, the website's editor-in-chief Natalia Antelava, who previously worked for the BBC, criticised Marianna after checking out the supposed connection. Marianna then reportedly sent an email apologising for her "awful misjudgment" and said she was led by her "desperation" for the job. She also said she was a "brilliant journalist" but admitted she was "naive and stupid", it is reported. But Natalia responded: "Telling me you are a brilliant reporter who exercises integrity and honesty when you have literally demonstrated the opposite was a terrible idea." Marianna became the BBC's disinformation and social media correspondent in August last year. She had worked for Panorama and has her own BBC podcast called Marianna In Conspiracyland. The journalist is also part of the BBC verify team, which undertakes fact-checking to avoid misinformation. The BBC did not wish to comment when approached by The Sun Online.

it was all just a simple misunderstanding and a coincidence that the BBC binned a Roisin Murohy special at the same time the trans nutters were calling for her to be cancelled

WHU (EXETER) 11:56 Wed Sep 13 The hard far left BBC shows what the hard far left BBC likes. These opinion pieces isn’t news or reporting anyway, and a lot of the time it’s to influence a certain subject. The BBC are sneaky shitweasels.

Dwight…well funny you should say that, guess what, not only did they find someone who vapes, turns out he would also welcome the ban (on disposables), because then it would make him stop. It’s ALMOST. AS. IF. you knew what he was going to say, before he said it!

WHU(Exeter) 11:56 Wed Sep 13 Did they bother to find someone who vapes? Considering it's about 9% of the population now (even higher amongst the young) and they're clearly visible by the cloud of fucking smoke smoke! It's almost like they have an agenda.

Capitol Man 11:59 Tue Sep 12 Thank you, very much. Interesting. My cynical side finds it hard to believe entities so powerful as Black Rock, Vanguard and the like, can be made to do anything they don't want to do, while my ever hopeful side wants to believe that seemingly democratic entities and processes can in fact wield power over them.

i'd love to see the detail of the process the BBC use when they carry out their snap opinion pieces, asking members of the general public what they think about issues of the day. Just seen one this morning, seven or eight members of the public given a few seconds to all say pretty much exactly the same thing on the subject of disposable vapes, most quoting the environment. Now I'm not saying those opinions are wrong, nor that the majority of people would not think the same, only that it's noticeable how hardly any dissenting voices are heard, and to me they bear no relation on the feedback you would get if it was really a 'random' exercise. I feel this is typical of pretty much every similar public opinion piece the BBC carry out.

Nonsense. It's just an objectively stupid thing to say by a total nobody. I'm not defending him any more than i'm defending you.

Interesting, CM. Has it actually been taken apart, or is being taken apart or should soon be taken apart? If you have a link to a decent article on this, I’d appreciate it.

Black Rock did it because there was money in it. They were offering consumers green choices and the companies making up those portfolios tended to be in newer, more flexible, higher growth technologies. It's been taken apart in the US courts with Republican Ads threatening to make it illegal in various states, opening them up to huge litigation rise, as well as the greenwashing by a lot of companies because there are no actual standards in place, just companies best, or most optimistic guesses about their ESG status on a number of fronts.

Fo Who is it that stoked up the race wars? Attack on British heritage, culture, history? Influenced by government, the government can hardly stop soap dodging left wing ponces from applying for jobs can they? You honestly think this government are remotely conservative? What point of difference do the opposition have to play?
