London, September 12 (RHC)--In protests outside the BBC and mass rallies nationwide, Britons are calling out the bias in British mainstream journalism in its coverage of Israel's genocidal war on Gaza.

They accuse the media of hypocrisy, racism, and complicity, claiming that non-white lives are undervalued and that Israeli accounts are presented as facts without verification.

One protest organizer, at a demonstration outside the BBC's main studios in London, said:
"It's appalling.  This isn't journalism.  It's completely hypocritical and it's racist. So it's treating people who are not white, their lives are treated in a different way to white people."

"Those could be my children. Those could be my colleagues.  You know, healthcare workers and the Western media is completely complicit and culpable."
