BBC have questions to answer as yet another misogynistic, abusive man given privileged platform

Recent disturbing revelations connected to BBC favourite Ashley Cain prove that the UK and its institutions have a serious misogyny problem. Moreover, the volume of evidence showing extremely bigoted, abusive rhetoric to diminish, demean and attack women shows how little sexualised abuse seems to matter to the state broadcaster. When Cain’s rhetoric glorifies violence against women, it ceases to be mere opinion and becomes part of a culture that puts women and girls at risk. The damage is real, and so are the consequences.

Tim Llewellyn was writing a review, for Electronic Intifada, of Rebecca Gordon-Nesbitt’s new book Killing Corbynism: Zionism’s War on Socialism. Llewellyn says that the BBC generated a “tidal wave of lies and misreporting” on Corbyn’s party and the left in general. He adds that this tidal wave was so large — and so unchallenged by so-called ‘mainstream’ journalists — that it is routinely parroted as fact. Often by those same hacks, despite being entirely…
