Show Notes
When a jury found in Gerry Adams’s favour in his case against the BBC, executives from the British Broadcasting Corporation sounded like they had won.
On Free State today, Joe and Dion disagree about the importance of the verdict in the libel trial. Joe explains why the jury reached that verdict and why the BBC’s evidence was flawed.
They look at how the BBC was a propaganda tool in the north for too long and why this verdict might be a long awaited turning point.
