Today programme’s ‘balance’
The BBC’s flagship programme Today is as deeply flawed in its coverage of Israel and Palestine as the rest of the BBC. Their rule of thumb is to bully and badger any Arab they allow onto the programme, and to fawn over any Israeli. This clip from the end of last Monday's programme is no more than a typical example. The Arab speaker is repeatedly interrupted and drowned out by the Israeli. Listen and decide for yourself.
