I had the privilege of directing a @BBCNews programme titled The Elder’s in 2015. Among the distinguished panelists was President #JimmyCarter, whose wisdom and presence left a lasting impression. The discussion was hosted by @AmroliwalaBBC
Rest in peace, Jimmy Carter.

9 BBC shows (+ 3 C4 and 1 ITV) is a respectable British showing in the NYT TV list.

EXCLUSIVE: 'Have I Got News for You' producer Jimmy Mulville is unhappy with the BBC‘s decision to censure the show over a joke involving Victoria Beckham.

In a statement shared with Deadline, Mulville — a producer who rarely pulls his punches — said the nearly year-long investigation into the joke after two viewer complaints was a “total waste of the licence fee” and an example of the “BBC’s paranoia about causing offence” https://t.co/PLnpe5FXoR

Trump made his first remarks without the TV pool and it is impossible to hear him through the White House feed. He is doing an unveiling of the new helipad just before Xi’s visit.

Nothing but static for 9 minutes and Trump is wheels up.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

LMFAO -- Trump is holding an event at the White House right now but there's no audio because the press pool isn't there. The Newsmax host notes that this is an example of Trump's attacks on the press "backfiring just a little bit"
