Default Elon Musk has added a label on BBC News saying Government funded media

It is a Label now on BBC.





Elon likes the BBC
and wants good Transparent Labelling

Seems fair to me

Well it literally is but labelling it as such seems like an attempt to discredit it.

It is generally accurate as the licence fee is a form of taxation set by the government.

However you have to take into account that the BBC are legally required to be editorially independent and impartial, and that is different from some other state-controlled media around the world.

The other legitimate complaint the BBC would have over this label is that it has only been (as yet) added to a select-few accounts. There are many more government-funded media accounts on Twitter, probably thousands if you include all the people that work for these organisations.

Yes
So far, just a Few BBC Accounts.

Sure, the BBC is worried as some other bad nations
also have that added.


They will have to rise above that.
