Re: Coronavirus

The state broadcaster earning it's (legislative) crust with a weak 'fact check'.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/57254305

The whole point of a fact check is surely to identify if the claim is correct or not, as opposed to offer defensive lines for the Government around dubious technicalities. And comparisons to opinion polling - which a know we all love on CF.

Generally most genuine fact checking services offer their own conclusion on the claims made - notably the state broadcaster does not.
