Sadly it seems like this is indicative of a broader trend in Public Broadcast in the west. In Australia we've seen similar internal criticism of the ABC of an anti-palestinian bias in reporting[1].

It's deeply concerning that these publicly funded media outlets are being co-opted and manipulated by a foreign power.

How is it possible they influence so much of what happens in western politics, or at least how whole nations respond to their genocidal war anyway?
