Thread to record where and when to find tv/radio commentary on the Cass report, so that it is easy for people to find it on catchup. If you’re listening/watching and it comes up, please record the channel/show and the time

David Bell saying children with complex issues funnelled into talking to gender specialists and that wasn't helpful. Adam immediately tries to shut that down and say well, it was talking wasn't it and that's got to be good. Bell won't have it and makes his point even more forcefully and at greater length.

Isn't it odd that they have this big story, they break their coverage in two, and separate the two parts with the story about friendly foxes and some news headlines?

So a male journalist interviews another male journalist about their experience of 'transition'. When one of the things noted by and concerning Cass was that the vast majority of referrals to GIDS were girls.

FFS.

Absolutely

Dr David Bell saying there must be resources and coordination with CAMHS services.

WinterTrees · 10/04/2024 17:35

Dr David Bell a significantly more authoritative voice and intelligent commentator than 'Amelia'.

nauticant · 10/04/2024 17:31

Oh, that's good, I thought they were done with their coverage with the Pink New transwoman. Much better.

Dr David Bell.

However, you can't rewind live broadcasts so you'll have to wait till it's finished and listen then.

James O'Brien on LBC had FREDA WALLACE on! (I didn't listen)
Shelagh Fogarty did very good job from 1pm onwards, including interview with Sonia Sodha.
Tom Swarbrick from 4pm. He's always been terf-adjacent and was outraged by Cass revelations. trans caller banging on about Cass's poor methodology. Not caller's area of expertise but he was quoting someone from Oxford Brookes - Swarbrick must have looked him up because he pointed out very qickly that 'expert' had no medical qualifications.

Matt Chorley on Times Radio just made mincemeat of Mermaids. Hannah Barnes on now.

How do I find this please?

Allowing the vital question about co morbidities in children to be hand waved away by talking about an individual adult's experiences and pushing the line that delaying harms children.

Appalling coverage completely ignoring the issues about children and the extent of evidence and research in the Cass report in favour of allowing a self interested transactivist to talk - endlessly. Which is why we're in this mess because these the BBC have continually enabled self interested transactivists to drown out the need to safeguard children and provide safe evidenced healthcare.

'Amelia' may be taking hormones but it's not HRT.

nauticant · 10/04/2024 17:16

And that seems to be the end of the segment. A transwoman "journalist" from Pink News. No one else to comment.

nauticant · 10/04/2024 17:16

"Trans people wake up every day and don't feel safe online because of this debate."

WinterTrees · 10/04/2024 17:14

Yes, it's baffling why they are largely ignoring the demographic specifically mentioned in the report as being particularly at risk.

I'm out of date and got this wrong. It seems that, of late, the bbcpm account has been tweeting out interviews like this.

Interesting that the BBC covers a story about appalling medical malpractice inflicted on children with a self absorbed account from a transwoman. So many possible areas to cover from this report yet it's down to personal anecdote. 🙄

Show quote history

Gosh it’s almost as if they’re in complete denial about their own complicity in ignoring all the alarm bells clanging!

BlackeyedSusan · 10/04/2024 17:14

Oh dear.

Anacdata verses professional report.

The BBC must have a team who have been tasked with coming up with different ways of saying 'Nothing to see here,' and 'Look, squirrel!'

And it's Adam Fleming on R4 PM. You could hear him polishing his 'be kind' goggles in the trailer.

And I was worried it was going to be Evan: I'm afraid I value my radio too much to risk it going through a window,so any updates appreciated 👍
