Flashback to 2022 – a brave BBC reporter takes cover from perilous artillery shelling in the Ukraine… While some rando woman goes on about her day completely normally in the background. News agencies used a cropped version of this image. The BBC has always peddled bullshit

**Submission Statement:**
Here’s my favourite example of the BBC spouting bollocks. I can’t believe the number of people simping for them on social media over the recent Trump speech edit fiasco.
Here’s an example of the cropped image being used (Wales Online):

just like the extreme weather reporters that are over-geared reporting from the outer bands of a hurricane while normal people are walking around casually. although i feel these “war reporters” are extra scummy
People were walking through “wartorn” kiev livestreaming getting arrested for showing the fucking movie props they were using.
This world is a goddamn meme at this point
My favorite was from 2008 with Anderson Pooper standing in a ditch beside the road to show everyone how bad the flooding from the hurricane was.
FFS, why didn’t he just get in someone’s pool? “My life will be at stake if I move down to where the diving board is!”
I mean nowadays news is basically entertainment for people so they play it up and make a big deal of things like this. Which is crazy because it’s a literal war. I guess they figured it wasn’t as ‘exciting’ as it was and decided to act like they were actively being shot at or something.
