And I know that, as I mentioned before, I know about, like, their verify arm. So I would expect that I quite like that they are putting it out there. I think it's so hard to reach people these days who aren't in the echo chamber that you're already in.

That would be a very weird thing to do. I might talk about it with people at work, but I wouldn't talk about it with friends or family. I wouldn't share my opinion about it on social media. It wouldn't make me engage more with BBC content. BBC is one of the news media outlets that I consume the most, so I couldn't consume it more. Yeah. Yeah. That wouldn't make any sense. So it wouldn't really change my behavior because I'm already quite actively engaged with the BBC.”
