International editor says he doesn’t ‘feel particularly bad about’ his inaccuracies

BBC’s international editor Jeremy Bowen admits he ‘got it wrong’ in his coverage saying the Gaza Al-Alhi hospital was “flattened” (it was never even bombed), but still said he “doesn’t regret one thing” about his reporting and doesn’t feel particularly bad.

    I wonder how all those cringy hamas whiners feel now? If they even think about how wrong they were.

      I don’t think that most of them care. It’s like the Musk and Starlink incident. People rather stick with the original story even when it turns out to be false.

        I guess that answers the question; they feel like mouth-frothing

      They never do. They just move on to the next talking point after talking point.

      That didn’t happen.

      And if it did, it wasn’t that bad.

      And if it was, that’s not a big deal.

      And if it is, that’s not my fault.

      And if it was, I didn’t mean it.

      And if I did…

      You deserved it."
