      It’s pretty widely known and has been an issue for a long time. It’s not terribly hard to google for.

        I tried to google it before asking

        edit: the only result i found was this: https://www.theguardian.com/society/2021/nov/04/bbc-changes-online-article-at-centre-of-transphobia-row

        edit2: does this sum it up? https://www.them.us/story/bbc-latest-transphobic-screed-is-a-mockery-of-journalism

          I’ve also been looking. I see other websites complaining, but I want to see actual BBC content that’s inflamatory etc, as I can’t find anything. It must exist, but so far, can’t find it.

            “Many people have blocked the BBC for posting transphobic content that is harmful to trans folk”

            “Hey, can you please share some of that harmful content?”

              Well honestly, if it can’t be sourced, is it even true? I’m all for burning a media outlet at the stake. But, I’d want to see evidence first. If it can’t be found, it’s not true for all intent and purpose.

                There are links to various articles about it in this discussion tree. You’re either not looking hard for sources, or you’re being disingenuous. I hope it’s the former, but experience tells me it’s the latter.

                  For the sake of reporting facts and journalism, I believe it’s correct to put the incriminated proof on the internet archive and link them here.

                    Agree, and I haven’t seen any as yet.
