BBC Criticized for One-sided Documentary
Claire Cozens for The Guardian writes:
The BBC’s governors have criticised the corporation for failing to warn viewers that a Correspondent film about the siege of the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem showed events almost exclusively through the eyes of the Israeli military.
The governors launched an investigation after a BBC viewer complained that the Siege of Bethlehem, which was made by an Israeli production team and told from the point of view of the army negotiators who dealt with the crisis, offered a “singularly one-sided” account of the tragedy.
