BBC On the Spot For Ignoring Worldcup Opening Ceremony
The British Broadcasting Co-operation {BBC} is currently on the spot for failing to cover the Qatar world cup opening celebrations that took place on Sunday 2oth November 2022.
Details sourced by this publications revealed that the Popular Media house BBC ignored the entire event in favour of a broadcast criticising the treatment of migrant workers, highlighting corruption at Fifa, and discussing the ban on homosexuality in Qatar.
However, the BBC failed to provide an explanation for why it had moved coverage of the opening ceremony, which is often a chance for host nations to project soft power abroad, to an online-only feed.
Where was all this BBC moral outage at the Russia World Cup? And will you be doing it at the next one in USA, re guns/abortion etc? Or is just Arab countries/culture that trouble you? https://t.co/DPNYGNQl0B

Additionally, Even the BBC's former football players who were called in to analyze the game itself disproved the notion that politics should be kept out of football. Former England player Alex Scott made fun of Fifa's president Gianni Infantino for saying he might feel sympathetic toward migrant workers and the cost of going to the World Cup.
The BBC has never boycotted a World Cup opening event until now, when it was hosted by the first Muslim Arab nation.

Shameful display by the British state mouthpiece.

"You will never know what it is like to be a migrant worker. To keep saying football is for everyone – it’s not. You can’t say football is for everyone,” Scott said".
BBC have such an agenda against Qatar - not showing the World Cup Opening Ceremony and starting coverage off with a depressing woke monologue. Need to get their own house in order first
