BBC Insiders Pen Letter Accusing Broadcaster of Pro Israel Bias

More than 100 BBC employees have written to the director general, Tim Davie, to complain about the corporation becoming a mouthpiece for Israel.

The open letter (available below), which was signed by a further 300 media professionals including Miriam Margolyes, Charles Dance, and Mike Leigh, represents a deepening of the crisis engulfing the BBC over its coverage of the war in Gaza. It follows widespread revulsion over the BBC platforming Glastonbury Festival act Bob Vylan, a punk band who chanted “death to the IDF” on a live iPlayer stream.
