UK Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy Cools Attacks On BBC, Praising 'Big Strides' In Gripping Crises
UK culture secretary Lisa Nandy has reduced the temperature of her attacks on the BBC after the publication of two damning reports into misconduct allegations against Gregg Wallace and editorial failings on documentary, Gaza: How to Survive a Warzone. Nandy has been highly critical of the BBC in a series of unusual interventions this month, including raising concerns about the leadership of director-general Tim Davie and questioning why no one had been fired over the How to Survive a Warzone debacle. More from Deadline BBC Says Individuals Were Present At Glastonbury Who Had "Authority" To Cut Bob Vylan Feed 'A Good Girl's Guide To Murder' Sets Season 2 Cast; First Look At Emma Myers' Return BBC Review Finds 'Gaza: How To Survive A Warzone' Broke Accuracy Rule In "Serious" Editorial Failure In comments on Monday, Nandy said: 'My job is to make sure that we uphold the highest standards and that the public and parliament can have confidence in the BBC. 'I think, given the recent events, that has been called into question, but the BBC in recent weeks has made big strides to try to reset that relationship with the public, and show that they have grip on the very very serious issues.' Her change of tone follows Deadline reporting on concerns about the culture secretary jeopardizing the BBC's independence by personally attacking Davie and repeatedly bypassing the corporation's governance conventions. Nandy said it is 'not for the government to say who should and shouldn't work at the BBC,' but added that the broadcaster was right to acknowledge 'catastrophic failures' in recent weeks, not least live-streaming Glastonbury act Bob Vylan chanting 'death to the IDF.' In a breathless day, the BBC published an internal report concluding that Gaza: How to Survive a Warzone committed a 'serious' breach of editorial rules by failing to declare that it was narrated by the child of a Hamas minister. Meanwhile, an independent report substantiated 45 misconduct allegations against former MasterChef host Wallace. Following the Gaza: How to Survive a Warzone report, media regulator Ofcom has launched its own investigation into the documentary, produced by Hoyo Films. 'Having examined the BBC's findings, we are launching an investigation under our rule which states that factual programmes must not materially mislead the audience,' a spokesperson said. Danny Cohen, the BBC's former television chief, suggested that an editorial leader should be fired over the documentary. 'The serious journalistic failings of this documentary have severely damaged public trust in the BBC. This is not an isolated incident but part of a pattern of systemic bias in the BBC's coverage of the war,' he said. 'The BBC's failure to recognise this and take real action is a serious leadership failure. This looks like a classic case of 'deputy heads must roll' and that is nowhere near good enough. As head of news Deborah Turness has questions to answer.'

Cedric Maxwell expects a bad Boston Celtics season ahead
Former champion Boston Celtics forward and current Boston broadcaster Cedric Maxwell has seen the Celtics at their best and worst, both as a player and as a member of the media. So we ought to take him seriously when he is bracing for what he thinks will be a particularly bad season for the Celtics in their coming 2025-26 campaign. After Boston elected to trade away veterans Kristaps Porzingis and Jrue Holiday while letting critical backup big man Luke Kornet walk in free agency to the San Antonio Spurs, it became pretty clear in a hurry that a soft tank for the team was in the cards. When they signed former Minnesota Timberwolves depth players Luka Garza and Josh Minott to help backfill the minutes Kornet, Holiday, and Porzingis will leave behind, it all but confirmed that this was the plan. The hosts of the CLNS Media "Cedric Maxwell" podcast, the eponymous Cedric Maxwell and his co-host John Zannis, took some time on an episode of their show to talk it over. Check it out below! If you enjoy this pod, check out the "How Bout Them Celtics," "First to the Floor," and the many other New England sports podcasts available on the CLNS Media network:
