@stefano besides the quality of the music, what keeps on amazing me is how the #bbc produced #TopOfThePops with these massive tube cameras on cranes (also carrying a human operator) and fully linear recording.

there is a vibe to this style which is unmatched by any modern production.

(btw, if anyone has more gerat behind the scenes of shows from the analog era, please share. unless on yt, i suspect i already watched all they have for the relevant keywords)

Analysis: Israel's intent to annihilate Gaza would have been clear had we listened to Palestinian journalists, rather than the BBC.

Israel’s justification for the mass slaughter of Gazans was built on "easily discredited lies from the start: of beheaded infants, of babies in ovens, of mass rape."

"It should surprise no one that Israel continued advancing similarly outrageous lies..."

Analysis: "The BBC hides truth about Israel's genocide -- again"

"The BBC keeps failing to report Israel's actually stated genocidal intent."

It did not report Israel’s leaders explicitly stating their actual motives -- over & over again.

"The BBC whitewashed a genocide."

A pro-Russian group is using AI-generated videos to impersonate news outlets like the #BBC and #POLITICO to spread Kremlin-backed disinformation about #Ukraine, POLITICO reports.

Experts warn that U.S. cuts to anti-disinformation programs might benefit Moscow in the information war.

Analysis: "The BBC helped kill Anas al-Sharif. Its reporting will kill more journalists".

"The media are legitimising the murder of journalists by Israel – & they are doing it because they are racist propagandists for a system of western colonial control in the Middle East".

🧵1/2: #FrankRiot #subvertising #streetart, responding to the #BBC as it relays #Israel's claims that the assassination of #journalist Anas Al Sharif and his #Aljazeera colleagues yesterday was justified as he was "a member of #Hamas". Being a mouthpiece for any governments, let alone a foreign government, is neither British nor Broadcasting. They can keep the "C" which is fitting at so many levels.
