BBC radio interviewer torn into by Amercian

[mysteryowl]

There was a BBC radio interview of a Russian politician, who of course was spewing lies and garbage.
The next person to be interviewed tore into the radio announcer. He said things like, 'How can you possibly give air time for them to spread their lies. Everything he said was false. Would you have given a mic to a Nazi during WWll? Of course not!!!
he went on and on, it was great!!

The announcer said he did it because the BBC told him to.

1. Our so called "reporters' let right wing shitheads spew lied and garbage all the time...

3. It is that bullshit of 'hearing from both sides'.

2. Similarly, one might ask...

How does FOX news give a microphone to Tucker Carlson, or Ingram in an interview with TFG, who is clearly a traitor?

4. I heard that and it reminded me of all the BBC interviews with Himmler. Oh, wait...

8. I've heard that sort of gaslighting from Russians for decades on NPR.

It's a fallacy of Journalism: you want to air both sides, but one side acts in bad faith.

Just like the GQP when they encounter an actual Journalist.
