An Ofcom investigation today concluded that People’s Forum: The Prime Minister on GB News broke broadcasting due impartiality rules. Given this represents a serious and repeated breach of these rules, we are now starting the process for consideration of a statutory sanction against GB News.
I though they avoid being under the rules of impartiality of news by being an entertainment channel that happened to have “news” in its name.
Scum.
That’s what they claimed but the thing is you’re a news channel if you deliver news. You can even say that only the part of the channel that’s actually presented as news is news and the rest is entertainment, like morning talk shows do, but the news bit is under news broadcast rules technically.
I think it’s very inditing they are even trying it on. They are a propaganda channel and using “news” in their name is completely disingenuous. If they are news they are breaking impartiality rules if they are not they are doing false advertising. They could be arguing to be breaking both.
As I said before. Scum.
