"... the BBC’s @LPressly says that the MEK refused to be interviewed for her program. She has deliberately chosen not to report that she and another BBC colleague were the guests of the PMOI at their home, Ashraf-3, for five-and-a-half hours."

"Hassan Heyrani" is the @bbcpersian's so-called source.

Heyrani was expelled from the MEK due to "security" concerns & in his own handwriting sought "forgiveness" from the organization.

"The reporter (@LPressly) did not even bother to corroborate and crosscheck the allegations they made against the MEK, more proof of hasty and unprofessional reporting."

"So outrageous is the scope of lies and distortion in this report that it raises an obvious question: What kind of a deal has the Iranian regime offered to @bbcpersian to secure such an inexplicable and vulgar hit-piece?"

This includes the NBC:

"Unable to openly defend the religious dictatorship in Iran, these apologists instead demonize the regime’s democratic alternative to justify appeasing the current regime."
