Sky News, BBC will not broadcast Gaza public service charity appeal ads
The fighting in Gaza is quiet, at least for now, but it has sparked an uproar in Britain, where two major broadcasters are under fire for refusing to air a charity appeal to help Palestinian victims there.
The conflict pits the venerable British Broadcasting Corp. and Rupert Murdoch’s burgeoning Sky News empire — which maintain they must protect their journalistic impartiality — against British lawmakers and protesters demanding that the Gaza appeal be shown.
They argue that Sky and BBC are denying viewers the chance to learn about the horrendous situation civilians face in Gaza so they can, if they wish, make contributions that would help provide badly needed food, water and medicine.
Jeremy Corbyn, a governing Labour Party lawmaker, said he and other legislators will demand that the appeal be broadcast when they meet Tuesday with BBC executives.
