#AnnaFoster: “How will America do that?”
I don’t even know (or care) what ‘that' is. Why ask a #UK politician what the #US will do?
You have a #Trump sycophant on the show almost every day.
Ask THEM.
#R4Today
#AnnaFoster cross that #Labour have not acted sooner in taking aggressive action against Russian oil movement, which “fuels Putin’s action in #Ukraine”, but blasé about #Trump easing sanctions on #Russia - apparently also Labour’s fault
This line does not educate or inform; it undermines.
#R4Today
#AnnaFoster: “We do not have infinite time”
If the guest refuses to answer your valid question, cut them off.
This is not a party political broadcast. Stop kowtowing to #WarCriminals, or you are #complicit in #genocide.
#BBCR4Today I'm no fan of #Lammy but the interrogation by #AnnaFoster seems senseless - for example, trying to get him to criticise #Trump.
#BBC #R4Today
#AnnaFoster: “I won’t even try to define ‘rage bait’ …”
Also Anna Foster: “If I ‘bio-hack’, presumably I will …”
An example of #BBCBalance, or discrimination in word definitions? Is Anna Foster trying to rage bait, or simply aura farming?
Perhaps #SusieDent can explain?
#BBC #R4Today
“‘Rage bait’ is the word, or two words, technically …”
I presume #AnnaFoster will be punished heavily for this break with orthodoxy, where qualified journalists repeat a script no matter how banal or error-ridden it is?
#BBC #R4Today
#AnnaFoster is correct that #Genocide is a legal term, but that does not stop it having a non-forensic meaning
The 1948 #Convention requires nations to #prevent genocide, not wait until it has been proven years later
#PalestineAction are proscribed, yet not convicted of #terrorism.
I'm all for holding politicians to account, especially from Reform, but bloody hell, let the interviewee get out more than three words before you constantly interrupt him.
Worst "interview" I've heard in ages.

#AnnaFoster to #MSF #doctor in #Gaza: “We lost your signal briefly but we have you back”
#Mossad: “Clearly #BBC has secret links to #terrorist #surgeons to bypass #Israeli #humanitarian signal jamming”
Yes, I paraphrased something Mossad didn’t say (yet). Live with it - #Palestinians do.
#BBC #R4Today
After items by #NickRobinson about geology, sport, NHS, politics, migrants …
#AnnaFoster gets to lead on a major story … about humming into straws
Sadly, she is given the wrong size straw, made from the wrong material, and the sound/vision is a mess
Why does the show hate women?
#BBC #R4Today
#Hawkeye failed again at #Wimbledon yesterday
#BBCRadio’s flagship news and current affairs show has time for #NickRobinson to tell us how it spoiled his hobnobbing with the wealthy and powerful
Mercifully, #AnnaFoster was happy only to make tea and tell the time
#EverydaySexism
#BBC #R4Today
#NickRobinson: (lengthy interview about the #NHS)
#AnnaFoster: “It’s twenty past seven”
NR: (lengthy interview about the volcanoes)
AF: “Here’s a man to talk about business”
Was there a meeting to plan the marginalisation of this alleged #co-presenter?
#EverydaySexism #Shame
#BBC #R4Today
Presenter: “Where will you go next”
Israeli child, displaced by missile attack: “We are going to #Bethlehem”
Reminder, since #AnnaFoster forgot, Bethlehem is an illegally-occupied #WestBank city
#Israel is using #Palestinians as #HumanShields
#فلسطين #الضفة_الغربية #بيت_لحم #غزة
#BBC #R4Today
#AnnaFoster seems in her element describing #Israel’s pain at a small amount of civilian damage
If #Netanyahu murders #journalists reporting from #Gaza, deny him the “oxygen of publicity” in #Jerusalem
What happened to #BBCBalance?
#Hypocrites #BothSides #Genocide #WarCrimes #Iran
#BBC #R4Today
For those conspiracy theorists who believe #Israel is engaged in #FalseFlag operations:
#AnnaFoster: “Israel has launched more missiles at cities across Israel overnight” (06:00).
#annafoster keeping her cool and good manners in face of an unceasing torrent of words from Israeli government.
#BBC #R4Today
#AnnaFoster: “Are you pleased #Labour are doing what you suggested on #defence spending?”
#BenWallace: “Obviously not. Although they are doing more than I did, it is still less than I never even suggested and only slightly more than I ever thought imaginable”

Excellent work by #AnnaFoster, holding the #Genocide apologist to task.
Losing #MishalHusain was a mistake. I hope Ms Foster can survive the internal politics and desperate partisanship.
Agree 👍. #annafoster she’s a really good journalist and has a great voice for the #radio4today programme.
www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/.... A year since #7Oct #attack on #Israel, #BBC’s #LyseDoucet, #JeremyBowen #RushdiAbualouf+ #AnnaFoster on their past year of reporting+what’s next for the #Middle East. Rich in #storytelling, #analysis and #personal #experience. Above all, profoundly sad.
