The British Broadcasting Corporation’s coverage of Sunday’s terror attack by an Arab truck driver in Jerusalem sparked controversy, after a headline by the news outlet emphasized the shooting of the terrorist and downplayed the attack itself.
The headline in question described the terrorist as a “Driver of a lorry”, writing that he was shot after “allegedly ramming pedestrians”.
“Driver of lorry shot in Jerusalem after allegedly ramming pedestrians, injuring at least 15, Israeli media report.” Four Israelis were killed in the purposeful attack in which a truck drove onto a promenade filled with Israeli soldiers, reversed slightly and ran them over again.
World Jewish Congress diplomatic corps member Gabriel Rosenberg blasted the BBC over the report, calling the headline “absolutely disgraceful”.
“Absolutely disgraceful headline by @BBCBreaking after terrorist kills 4 #Israelis. Stop portraying the perpetrator as the victim!”
While the BBC headline evolved in the hours after the attack, the outlet repeatedly avoided describing the incident as an act of Arab or Islamic terror, the Honest Reporting media watchdog said.

Take down the BBC. Twitter them out of relevancy.
And just think, Brits pay a boob tube tax for this kind of cr@p.
BBC = MiniTru.
Brits should have themselves a t(v) party. The Thames would make a handy body of water.
I saw a video of this evidently taken by a security camera in the distance. The truck came through at twenty plus mph and after running these people down appeared to be turning around.
These terrorist have to be kept out of countries to harm. Stopping truck violence is just as stupid as stopping gun violence. The truck attacks afford less chance of defending one’s self. Stay in the woods and carry I guess until Trump’s presidency addresses this.Real Change!
Big Media has decided to be much more open about their status as propaganda organs. That’s a good thing.
One bad word from the BBC about muzzies and studios will be torched I assume?
Of course. Why report the news accurately when you can advance the leftist agenda with a lie?
“allegedly”
Britain is dead. Too many muzzies. Candy-a$$ politicians who are willing to betray their country for muzzie votes and money.
I predict that the UK will soon be removing the cross from their flag, as they bow down in submission to their new masters.
One bad word from the BBC about muzzies and studios will be torched I assume?
That is a global equation.
And the amoeba in the Liberal Big Media Establishment all know that equation well.
I am surprised they even said there was a driver.
There had to be a driver, because an evil Israeli shot him. “I’m shot. Therefore I am. I ran you over. Therefore it’s alleged that you are.”/s
