Fact-checking (especially if conducted by the BBC) is merely an opinion. The BBC itself has a long history of reporting false information. It is frequently used by "legacy" media and respective governments as a tool of censorship. https://www.politico.eu/article/bbc-says-sorry-to-israel-after-reporting-it-targeted-medical-staff/ https://www.ft.com/content/69e43380-dd6d-4240-b5e1-47fc1f2f0bdc https://nypost.com/2021/12/14/facebook-admits-the-truth-fact-checks-are-really-just-lefty-opinion/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter_Biden_laptop_controversy#Social_media_corporations
