"But it is also one of the most accountable in the world as it is funded by the UK taxpayer (see the Hutton enquiry shitstorm for the most obvious recent example of the BBC paying a high price for that accountability). "

BBC also just lost a complaint against it's BBC2 program that aired on June 7, 2003, titled "Dan Cruickshank on the Road to Armageddon", a special about the dangers of archealogy treasures during the conflict. BBC admitted to factual errors and misleading footage.

Some of the false claims the program made: claiming Israel fired a tank shell into the Church of nativity, that 70 palestinians were killed by some crazed settler in Hebron in 1994 instead of the real number, which is 29. The documentary also left out anything about the religious quarters destruction during the period between 1948-1967 when Arab's had control.

The Edward Said documentary "In Search of Palestine" featured a whole list of slanderous disinformation originally aired on BBC. Lies about wether Arabs can buy land in Israel, and others, became popular from this program, and are still used against Israel today
