BBC internal report also hits its lib-Trans disinformation.
It seems possible that resignations were over that, or broader patterns of BBC lib bias.
BBC accused of causing "pathological anxiety about puberty" in children.https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/11/11/bbc-pro-trans-bias-has-harmed-children/
Martine Croxall thing.The BBC’s promotion of gender ideology has encouraged children to develop a “pathological anxiety” about puberty, women’s rights campaigners have said.
Maya Forstater, the chief executive of women’s rights charity Sex Matters, claimed that the corporation’s “normalisation of transgender ideology” has had “real, harmful consequences”.
In a letter to the BBC board, the gender-critical campaigner called on the broadcaster to “replace activist language with normal language” in its reporting.
She also claimed that its programmes had driven demand for puberty blockers now banned on the NHS.
June 2025, BBC scripted her to read "pregnant people", which is disinformation, since only females can be pregnant.
Croxall corrected it on air, by adding "women".

But BBC staff flipped out.

BBC didn't terminate Croxall, but struggle-sessioned her. 'disciplinary note' or some such.
Megha Mohan thing.UK feminists protest males in female spaces. It's newsworthy.
Mohan 2018 showed her personal bias against such feminists, when Mohan blocked coverage of them.

Ms Mohan’s intervention can be revealed this week as The Telegraph published revelations from a leaked internal BBC memo that details numerous instances of apparent bias at the broadcaster.
So, BBC internal report goes well beyond Trump thing.
pro-Hamas biasThe 8,000-word letter was sent to members of the BBC board by Michael Prescott, a former standards adviser. He wrote of his “despair at inaction by the BBC executive” over widespread evidence of bias.
Mr Prescott’s damning letter also accused the corporation of “effective censorship” of its reporting on transgender issues, and expressed concerns that BBC Arabic was downplaying the suffering of Israelis in the war with Hamas to paint their country as the aggressor.
In addition, he disclosed that the BBC’s flagship Verify fact-checking unit had been forced to take down a story falsely suggesting car insurers were racist after getting it “thoroughly wrong”.
Boris Johnson led calls for Tim Davie, the BBC director-general, to “explain or resign” over the scandal engulfing the broadcaster. The former prime minister said the BBC “has been caught red-handed in multiple acts of Left-wing bias”.

After Panorama’s Trump distortions, how many other examples by the Corporation are waiting to be exposed?
[there was] the catastrophic editorial failure of the BBC broadcasting the documentary Gaza: How to Survive a Warzone without mentioning that it was narrated by the son of a Hamas minister in Gaza – who had been paid for his participation.
In an address to staff afterwards, Turness defended the programme by saying the father was “a member of the Hamas-run government, which is different to being part of the military wing of Hamas” and that “we need to continually remind people of the difference”.
The idea of two separate wings of Hamas is a fiction pushed for years only by those who believe Hamas is a legitimate organisation. You would expect even the most junior reporter covering these issues to know that for the past four years Hamas as a whole has been a proscribed organisation on the basis that “the approach of distinguishing between the various parts of Hamas is artificial” and that it is “a complex but single terrorist organisation”.
