    Remember that Fox News rant about how anti-American the BBC was? There were a few discussions about it on PVN at the time but i think they got deleted. Anyway Ofcom have ruled:

    "Fox News was unable to provide any substantial evidence to support the overall allegation that the BBC management had lied and the BBC had an anti-American obsession."...

    "Fox News was therefore in breach of Sections 2.1 (respect for truth), 2.7 (opportunity to take part), and 3.5(b) (personal view programmes - opinions expressed must not rest upon false evidence) of the Programme Code."
