BBC News has lately become a questionable news outlet. Here are a couple of examples which show how they doctor videos and photos for local and foreign consumption:

To me, it is no surprise. It's known that BBC Online News has recently become a questionable tabloid news source over the years.

It explains the horrific clickbait, manipulative editing to omit critical information, impartiality breaches and the total garbage articles you see on most of their so-called "News" sections.

I consider BBC Online News a low quality news source; exactly like Buzzfeed.
