'It's a club!' BBC in crisis after Rabbi forced out slams 'Guardian reading is required!'
2022-01-06 00:00:00.0     每日快报-英国新闻     原网页

       Rabbi YY Rubinstein claimed The Guardian "is absolute required reading" in BBC buildings and that those with views that differ from "left-wing, woke" should find another job working in the BBC's bar as a "dartboard".

       The devastating claims come as Rabbi YY Rubinstein quit his commentary role at the BBC after more than 30-years after the corporation wrongly accused victims of an anti-semitic attack in central London of using anti-Muslim slurs. The BBC withdrew the comment that slurs were made but then said one of the victims had used a slur, which is reportedly not true.

       The incident, which happened in November on Oxford Street, involved a group of men hurling anti-semitic abuse, spitting at and punching the windows of a bus carrying a Jewish group as they celebrated Chanukah.

       Speaking to GB News on Wednesday, Rabbi Rubinstein accepted the neutrality of the BBC “is always up for debate” in Britain but warned the broadcaster is bias.

       He claimed how in his 30-years at the Beeb, his understanding of our national broadcaster are that "it's a club” adding that "left-wing" attitudes “are a membership thing”.

       The Rabbi noted: “A symbol of membership is absolute required reading of The Guardian!

       "You see people wandering about the BBC canteen all the time, with their Guardian’s under their arms!”

       He said: “You might get away with reading The Times but if you’re a Telegraph reader, you’re toast, you have no career!”

       The Rabbi went on to joke those that hold differing views should find “new jobs in the BBC bar as a dartboard”.

       While in a frank analysis, he said the BBC "certainly has a culture, and the culture is woke, left-wing and always has been".

       While in further blow to the BBC’s neutrality, Rabbi YY Rubinstein said he was "not convinced" about the BBC’s ability to separate “politics from objective reporting”.

       The Rabbi, who contributed to Good Morning Sunday and Thought For The Day, resigned in a letter which he then shared to Facebook.

       In the letter, he said the coverage of the incident "was and is inexcusable" adding how "the obfuscation, denial that followed, was and is utterly damning.”
