The BBC admits its Syrian chemical attack reporting had serious flaws
The BBC’s Executive Complaints Unit (ECU) has admitted there were “serious flaws” in a Radio 4 documentary by journalist Chloe Hadjimatheou on the alleged 2018 chemical attack in the Syrian city of Douma.
On 2 September, the UK national broadcaster issued a statement which read: “The ECU found that, although they were limited to one aspect of an investigation into a complex and hotly contested subject, these points represented a failure to meet the standard of accuracy appropriate to a program of this kind.”
The ECU statement came in response to an official complaint by Mail on Sunday columnist Peter Hitchens following last November’s broadcast of “Mayday: The Canister On The Bed.”

Once upon a time, de Bretton Gordon’s Twitter profile identified him as a member of 77th Brigade, the British Army’s shadowy psychological warfare division, which maintains a vast militia of real, fake and automated social media accounts that it deploys to disseminate propaganda in support of UK Foreign Office objectives, and discredit government critics.

only question is did Trump actually fall for it or did he play along even though he knew ... either way, f-him for being just another typical US president on that day

I think it's easy to underestimate the impact of daily briefings from the Pentagon etc. - being fed a steady diet of carefully controlled information. I doubt it's much different with Biden.
Although Trump was intuitive and willing to challenge the old guard, he was also too erratic and unfocused. You would need a steely-eyed JFK-type president to see the bigger picture and attempt to reign it in systematically and intelligently...
