As this editor wrote the other night, the publicly funded Channel 4 in Britain was prepared to welcome the president on Wednesday with a marathon TV show called “Trump vs. the Truth,” which promised viewers the “longest uninterrupted reel of untruths ever broadcast on television.” Yes, the UK’s mainstream media, including the BBC, is just as biased as ours.

Channel 4, taking a cue from the Gavin Newsom Press Office Account, decided to publicize the show on X with posts satirizing Trump’s posts on Truth Social.

TONIGHT ON THE FAILING CHANNEL 4 (EVEN WORSE THAN ITV) THEY ARE SHOWING MORE THAN 100 ‘UNTRUTHS’ TOLD BY YOUR FAVORITE PRESIDENT DONALD J TRUMP. THIS IS FAKE NEWS BY THE MSM AND AN ATTACK ON YOUR FAVORITE PRESIDENT (DONALD J TRUMP)! DO NOT WATCH AT 10PM!!!

In fact, the “genius” and her crew at Gavin Newsom Press Office caught on and decided to play along.

There was some debate about whether the intern who posted this had pink or blue hair, but it’s pretty said when you’re doing a bit that’s already been played out by Gavin Newsom’s crew.
