Description
Sky News Senior Reporter Caroline Marcus discusses the BBC failing to translate a recent speech by US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.
“They have BBC Persia, which actually broadcasts into Iran, and they say they made a mistake in translating a speech given by the US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth,” Ms Marcus said.
“He talked about how America was targeting the Iranian regime, but instead of saying the regime, they translated it into Persian to say the US is targeting Iranians.
“A pretty fundamental error.”
