Here's an example. The BBC publish an article about Hyrox which heavily features a trans identifying male. No mention that Lucy Gabriel is a trans identifying male. No mention that the author is also a trans identifying male - so therefore has a vested interest in how the issue is presented. No mention that the male author competes in the Women's category in running - against the regulations of UK Athletics.

No mention whatsoever that Gabriel broke Hyrox rules by competing in the female category where the exercises are different and a trans identifying male has athletic advantage. Nothing about how female Hyrox athletes might feel about it. This is activism passing itself off as impartial journalism

The article was free to view for a while. The damning indictment was when the BBC completely refused to run an article on the WPATH files.

I think she actually said '..pregnant people - women - the elderly, ...' . She didn't even replace 'pregnant people', she just clarified who they were talking about. That the BBC think that single word is worthy of admonishment when they have a news department with a group of activists directing the narrative on women's rights issues and suppressing valid news items is absolutely incredible really.

Odd how people are questioning about other news outlets (as we should be of them all) but have no curiosity about whether the national broadcaster is impartial on this issue.
