Complaint

A viewer noted that the presenter Naga Munchetty appeared to mouth the word β€œThankyou” as her co-presenter was explaining that the Supreme Court had recently ruled that the Government’s Rwanda asylum plan was unlawful.Β  Taking Ms Munchetty’s thanks to be directed to the Supreme Court, the viewer complained that she had exhibited bias.


Outcome

In fact Ms Munchetty (who was unaware she was on camera at this point) was thanking someone behind the scenes, not commenting on her co-presenter’s remarks, so there was no issue of impartiality.
