BBC apologizes for documentary on mavi Marmara raida

BBC review committee yesterday ruled a Panorama documentary about the May 2009 Israeli raid on the Mavi Marmara was "accurate and impartial" overall, but did breach editorial guidelines. Alison Hastings, chair of the BBC Trust's editorial standards committee, apologized for three breaches of accuracy and impartiality, out of 51 points raised in complaints. The accuracy breaches related to the failure to include preliminary autopsy reports into how activists on the Gaza-bound aid ship died and more details of the exact nature of the aid being carried by the flotilla it led.
