This places BBC Scotland in breach of the BBC’s guidelines on accuracy. It simply didn’t apply any scrutiny to Jenny Marra’s ‘understanding’. Even when unambiguosly told the £300,000 figure was false, the corporation continued its same narrative. By the time the 18:30 edition of Reporting Scotland aired, Jenny Marra’s unsourced and uncorroborated ‘understanding’ was being given more weight than an official statement from the Health Board itself.
