Astonishing headline from @BBCSport
‘Imane Khelif progresses after opponent abandons’
@AlexKayJelski you promised us impartiality. That means abandoning your habit of selective bias. What is this 👆 https://t.co/zCatZVT4E1

This was updated with Carini quotes but even still omits ‘I’ve never been hit so hard before’. @BBCSport would not even have covered this match but for the scandal. Now that it’s forced to, it has tried to make it as anodyne and uninformative as possible.

Reminds me of the title of Al Franken’s book: Lies, and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them. There are so many ways in which this “reporting” is lying. Lies of omission, lies of commission. The BBC is disgusting.
