Former Guardian editor Alan Rusbridger has warned that GB News has effectively turned into 'Reform TV', functioning as the broadcasting arm of Nigel Farage's Reform UK party. In a report published this month by The New World, Rusbridger and a team of more than 20 journalists analysed 15 hours of prime-time programming.
They identified a pattern of breaches of Ofcom's rules on impartiality and accuracy, with content consistently aligned to Reform's agenda. The claims, made as the channel approaches its fifth anniversary, have renewed debate over media impartiality and regulatory oversight in British broadcasting.
