To be fair, the name of the state is in BBC itself.
- SpicyLemonZest 6y agoTwitter's been fairly open about their decisionmaking process here, so we know that's not the relevant factor - they say they don't label BBC because it has editorial independence.
- colordrops 6y agoSounds hand-wavy. How is editorial independence measured?
- SpicyLemonZest 6y agoI agree with your skepticism of the objectivity here. Twitter says only that they "consulted with a number of expert groups": https://blog.twitter.com/en_us/topics/product/2020/new-labels-for-government-and-state-affiliated-media-accounts.html https://blog.twitter.com/en_us/topics/product/2020/new-label...
- pydry 6y agoTwitter is wrong then. They used to have editorial independence before the Hutton enquiry. Any editorial independence they have now is purely nominal.
- rootsudo 6y agoAnd this is the issue with social media being able to moderate and curate content as they choose. Makes me wonder about Mccain and the CDA.
