I can see the Sun headline tomorrow already: Huw Done It. |

It is still worth pointing out that at the moment, there is still no evidence out there, and it seems like this moves further away from a criminal case. I do think this whole situation has been handled poorly though. The Sun, who never had any intention of assisting the BBC with their investigations has pulled a blinder on the BBC and the public.
Don't buy the Sun. (And yes Mach, the Guardian is fine) |  |

Some random bellend on Twitter thinks we shouldn't trust the BBC? That's me convinced.
It's pretty clear the Sun wasn't being honest about having evidence to back up their original story, given that the police have reviewed the available evidence and are taking no further action. |  |

With a sub-head of “and yes we’ll keep on trying to bring down the BBC” |
Friend of mine, a former local journalist, was tasked with tracking down and securing an interview with the Aussie who'd just inherited the title of Lord Stradbroke, and become the proud owner of Henham Hall.
This was back in the '80s, so no internet.
Keith (yes, the Earl of Stradbroke is called Keith) was finally tracked down to a hotel in Paris. My friend spoke to him about an interview. Keith wouldn't give the interview until he was satisfied the EADT wasn't a murdoch paper. |  |

If The Sun hadn't reported that then BBC would have swept it under the carpet and he would have carried on
No, you shouldn't trust BBC or any other TV channel. The media are there to brainwash you not tell you the truth. People would have less problems if they switched off their tellies. | | | |

What, live our lives with not a hint of what is going on anywhere else ? It is possible to watch and read something and think about what has been shown or written, from whose viewpoint and for what reason the reporter and/or writer has prepared the report and/or put pen to paper. After all, that is what most people in this thread appear to be doing with regards to The Sun. [Post edited 12 Jul 2023 21:02]

BBC or The Sun.....both doing their own versions. They are there to manipulate and brainwash you. | | | |

I would think losing your career and ending up needing further in-patient mental health treatment is quite a long way down the road of being the victim of what is basically a baseless smear.
Imagine how you'd feel if it were you. [Post edited 12 Jul 2023 21:02]

Well you may feel manipulated and brainwashed, I like to think I have an element of critical thinking that enables me to filter the reality from the false narrative to a reasonable extent. I fear I would live my life under a stone never daring to go out far and wide into the big bad World otherwise. | |

Swept what under the carpet though exactly? It was newsworthy arguably solely on the basis that it involved the presenter allegedly soliciting indecent images of someone under 18, which is illegal. The police have swiftly concluded there is no evidence to support this claim, and yet you are suggesting the Sun was justified in running the story despite the key element of it not being true. Apart from you not liking the BBC, what's your justification here? | |

I know you don't like The Sun so no wonder you are trying speak as badly as you can about them. | | | |

"If The Sun hadn't reported that then BBC would "
..... not have known there was anything to sweep it under the carpet

What are his wrongdoings specifically? The serious allegation made by the Sun has been investigated by the police and there is no evidence to support it. | |

Good grief. Do you really pay attention to that sort of guff on Twitter?
For those on Twitter, is this normal on there? Is this part of the reason why we’re in such a miserable, divided place right now with a liberal sprinkling of bellends on crusades? | |

You pay attention to any guff BBC say so your question is inappropriate. | | | |
