Can you point to some explicit equivalent misinformation from Fox
News?


Something equivalent to Christopher's rock hard cite of a talking head
on BBC?


You mean something that counter's Jorge's "rock hard cite"?

After Christopher writes:

"Well on the BBC news, a talking head in the administration popped up
and said bla bla bla then 'it's a threat to National Security'."

Rand Replies:

"Another reason why people who rely on the BBC for their information
are doomed to not only ignorance, but misinformation (not that
Christopher needed any help)."

You call this very vague account of a BBC news item another reason why
BBC is unreliable. I want to know more specifics about the news item
Christopher was referring to.


OK, I grant you that Jorge's cite proves Christopher's post wasn't vague
and not really a good basis to condemn BBC (if you live on planet Rand).
