A BBC News anchor set off an online firestorm after she apparently “hissed” at a young musician who named Jesus Christ as one of his heroes.
Geeta Guru-Murthy let loose with the unfiltered reaction Saturday while interviewing up and coming musician DC3, whose given name is Daniel Chenjerai.
“Santan Dave, Kendrick Lamar, most of all, Jesus Christ,” the 18-year-old replied on air when Guru-Murthy asked him to list those he admired.
Guru-Murthy, 58, sharply and audibly winced right after hearing “Jesus Christ,” sparking memes and backlash on social media with X users slamming the host and the network, claiming they were biased against Christians.
“BBC’s [Geeta Guru-Murthy] hisses at a man who says Jesus Christ is his hero. Imagine the outrage if this happened with Prophet Muhammad,” journalist Peter Lloyd wrote on X.
“Why did the BBC news reader act like the man said a racial slur mentioning Jesus Christ,” X user Didumissthenews mused.
Others shared memes inspired by the seemingly unconscious reaction, likening Guru-Murthy to a vampire offended by a bright light while another poster cast her as Golem, from “The Lord of The Rings.”
DC3, who appeared on the BBC after being nominated for two 2026 MOBO Awards, took up the sword on social media following the on-air insult.
“Jesus Christ is real,” he wrote in a post to X.
“The revolution will be televised in Jesus name,” he wrote in a follow-up post.
The 58-year-old pushed back on accusations of bias, claiming she was merely doing her job.
“I’ve seen there’s some discussion about the end of my interview with DC3 this week. For the record, I was simply breathing in before moving to end the interview,” Guru-Murthy wrote on X.
“To suggest anything else is just untrue,” she concluded, tagging the BBC in the post.

"Musician DC3 took to social media after the controversy writing “Jesus is real.”"
Geeta Guru = Dalit Thuggee
She hissed. She might have been breathing in and not out, but she hissed. It was either dismissive or demonic, and it was intentional. Simply breathing, as she claims was the case, does not involve hissing.

Thanks for the update
In recent years, the BBC has hired the ugliest women available to work on its TV network. In addition to being ugly and overweight, Geeta Guru-Murthy is also an ethnic Indian. So, she checked off many boxes on the BBC’s affirmative action hire check list.
The BBC marketing team knows their audience.
She’ll be sure to do a lot more of that in the future to cover herself. Maybe BBC engineers an just dub it in for her.
God forbid the Brits pick someone who looks like Elizabeth Hurley or Princess Di to read the news.
Just the Left getting more angry due to being defeated often, been going on for a while.
That was a hiss. Very clear.
The rule must be: cannot be nicer nor prettier than Helen Thomas.
They just need to hire those weather girls on the Spanish channel.
Protected class, and she knows it.
If a white “newsreader” with the BBC gave the finger on air, she’d be fired.
Having been in deliverance ministry, it was straight up demonic. She needs deliverance.
Yeah... Not a hiss. She was drawing in a breath to speak and the mic exaggerated the sound, as they are want to do.
To be fair, this may have been a normal inhale of breadth during the interview.
Future guests on that show would be well advised to bring a bottle of Holy Water along in case the hostess gets violent.
