Clearly the BBC is not happy when it considers that other members of the media get it wrong and thinks it important to establish “the facts”. Recent days have also seen BBC criticism of an additional media outlet for alleged “lazy journalism”. 

Would that the corporation were similarly conscientious about accuracy and facts in some of its own content.
