British Broadcasting Corporation Gaza Programme Considered a 'Significant' Breach of Broadcasting Standards, Declares Ofcom
The British broadcaster was found to have committed a "significant breach" of broadcasting rules by failing to disclose that the voice of a programme about the Gaza situation was the offspring of a Hamas administrator, according to British broadcasting authority Ofcom.
An investigation by the media regulator into the documentary titled Gaza: How to Survive a Warzone has found that the programme was "materially misleading".
The BBC's director general had already issued an apology, stating there had been "a major oversight in relation to truthfulness".
Ofcom has instructed the BBC to air a prime-time declaration about its decisions.
"Since this amounts to a serious breach of our code, we are directing the broadcaster to transmit a message of our conclusions against it on BBC2 at nine o'clock in the evening, with a schedule to be determined," it said.
'Risk to Erode Confidence'
The watchdog's report stated: "Our probe found that the documentary's failure to disclose that the voice's father served in a role in the Hamas-administered administration was materially misleading.
"Consequently that the audience did not have critical information which may have been extremely pertinent to their evaluation of the presenter and the content he shared.
"Trust is at the heart of the relationship between a media organization and its viewers, notably for a national broadcasting corporation such as the public broadcaster.
"This oversight had the potential to undermine the significantly high levels of credibility that viewers would have put in a documentary produced by the BBC about the Gaza conflict."
The documentary was pulled from iPlayer in February after the narrator's personal associations emerged, and in this past July an broadcaster's internal assessment found it infringed the organization's editorial guidelines on truthfulness.
A corporation official commented: "The authority's determination is in line with the results of the internal assessment, that there was a major oversight in the programme in relation to the corporation's content standards on truthfulness, which corresponds to clause 2.2 of Ofcom's Broadcasting Code.
"We issued an apology for this and we agree with Ofcom's decision in complete. We will follow the directive as soon as the date and wording are determined."
