They've changed it back again now, but changing a quote is a huge red flag. The BBC are repeatedly demonstrating that there are ideologues directly interfering with the meaning of stories they report relating to trans people, and this should be a far bigger deal than it is

In this piece, admitting the BBC has broken its impartiality rules re. trans people, the BBC further breaks its impartiality rules by changing a quote saying "trans identity" to "trans ideology".

The BBC is rushing this hit job out the door. Remember, the licence fee means we are obliged, under threat of criminal sanction, to pay for its racism. Screw the BBC.

In my brief time as an op-ed editor (<year), Brettbug Stephens argued Ashkenazis might be genetically superior, & Tom Cotton called for violence against George Floyd protestors. Some of us were constantly pushing back. I met with Sulzberger multiple times. Lip service was given, nothing changed.

as a thought exercise for everyone reading ross douthat's latest missive in the NYT, i want you to think about sending an email to your entire company with the subject line "Did Women Ruin the Workplace?", then think about the over/under on the number of minutes/hours you would still be employed

Employment lawyer here: the number of male employers who genuinely believe they should be able to sleep with their female employees and pay working mothers less than working fathers is most of them. They genuinely believe that it is an injustice against them that they might face repercussions.

This was a sentence in a NEWS piece, not an opinion piece, btw. NYT is very bad at keeping news and opinion separate, much of their politics reporting reads like opinion.

The NYT has earned their reputation of bring harmful and dangerous to trans people and especially trans kids. That’s entirely on them. If my kid was trans I wouldn’t trust the NYT either.

If you’re going to allow military personnel to lie this obviously and brazenly without challenge, then you would be better to stay in London and invite them to email you YouTube clips. It would be more clear to the public what has been happening than pretending it’s something else.

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video. I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children. But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

The DCCC has poured a ton of money into keeping you in your seat. You were being recruited to run for Senate. The idea that you don’t have room in the Democratic Party is absurd. You’re mad that you’re not in charge.

There’s no need to ask whether Britain’s political/media class, if forced to choose, will pick e.g. Polanski over Farage. They have proven over and over again that when push comes to shove, they will always choose carnage and disaster with the reactionary right, forever.

This is a major reason why I don’t see any point in sticking up for the BBC as a news outlet any more. You can’t help people who won’t even stand up for themselves, and in fact repeatedly present their own balls for a harder kicking.

I note the new waves of totally overt racism are both coming from the mainstream of politics, and it’s right in your face. We don’t need a priestly class of wingnut cranks to explain that some councillor’s Facebook Like is proof the entire centre and right are Hitler. We can see what they are.
