CJV UK, the British branch of the Coalition for Jewish Values, has called for the BBC to undertake a comprehensive internal reform following the resignation of its Director General and News Chief. The resignations come after a leaked dossier exposed widespread bias in BBC reporting, including misleading edits to a speech by Donald Trump and coverage that was described as antisemitic and anti-Trump. The report revealed that senior BBC managers repeatedly ignored warnings about biased reporting, which included unverified claims and emotive framing that misrepresented Israel and minimized Israeli suffering.

Rabbi Jonathan Guttentag, chairman of CJV UK, criticized the BBC for betraying public trust by giving more credibility to terrorists than to their victims. He argued that such coverage fuels hostility toward Jews and Israel, contributing to a rise in antisemitic incidents across Britain. The organization warned that the BBC's reporting not only distorts public perception but also has real-world consequences, spreading prejudice and potentially inciting violence against Jewish communities.
