One of the studio guests I heard was Jon Lansman, who was obviously very supportive of him. And the article on the BBC website is reasonably balanced. I'm not defending the BBC, I just don't see anything "worrying".
The worrying thing is using an overtly bigoted and agenda'd source which contextualises and steers the narrative in a way that could have been avoided by just simply not engaging and giving the source a platform.
