Well, BBC tarnished itself. It takes time to build reputation of integrity and objectivity but take only a moment to bring crashing down.
Now, if you want to regain it you’ll have to let your work speak for itself.

Ah, the Biased Broadcasting Corporation at it again. They seem to be only slightly less pro-Palestine than Al Jazeera.
Myriad interviews and reports about “how bad things are in Gaza” and obvious disdain for Israel’s claims that they’re targetting Hamas.
