Unreality Check



Oh dear! The nationwide commercial radio station LBC isn't impressed with the BBC's Reality Check for calling it a "London radio station":  

Hey @BBCRealityCheck... @LBC is NOT a ‘LONDON’ radio station! It’s been national - ‘LEADING BRITAIN’S CONVERSATION’ - for nearly 5 years now.

"Good job it isn’t called Fact Check, eh?", tweeted LBC presenter Iain Dale.

What with James Kirkup eviscerating one of its pieces, it's not been the best week for the BBC's Reality Check. 

Maybe the BBC needs to set up a new unit called Reality Check Check to fact-check Reality Check.
