Sean McGinty currently involved in an employment tribunal with the Beeb

BBC 'acted reasonably' when sacking journalist Sean McGinty - BBC News share.google/HWeQYjD04eNa3ljXz

It's a genuine question because it's the first time I can recall hearing about this. I'm assuming everything he posted was before the report that exposed the Beeb's bias, which seems to have caused a bit of a course correction. I don't know what he posted. I might, having read them, agree he deserved to be sacked. I have a nagging suspicion though that a 'woke' version of Sean's posts wouldn't have made the Beeb bat an eyelid.

This excerpt gives some context

Sean McGinty, who worked for BBC Radio Lancashire for 22 years, was dismissed because he made numerous posts on X deemed to have breached the BBC's social media and editorial policy guidelines, including about transgender issues and Hamas.

No. The BBC have always had strict rules around what their journalists can and can't do.

They suspended then terminated Gary Lineker for SM posts and he wasn't even a journalist.
