过去三年里，英国广播公司（BBC）已被反犹主义毒害，这一点已变得清晰明了。
Over the last three years it has become clear that the BBC has been poisoned by anti-Semitism.
这绝非孤立事件：仍在职的BBC记者曾表示支持10月7日的袭击，BBC阿拉伯语频道曾为寻求大规模屠杀犹太人的人提供平台，一档黄金时段纪录片的旁白由一名哈马斯官员之子担任。
In what are by no means isolated incidents, BBC journalists who are still employed by the corporation have shown support for the Oct 7 attacks, BBC Arabic has given a platform to men who seek the mass murder of Jewish people and a primetime documentary has been narrated by the son of a Hamas official.
然而，直到现在，自哈马斯暴行发生以来，在BBC工作的犹太人的经历一直隐而不宣。获奖节目主管露西·康（Lucie Kon）的经历揭开了这层帷幕。
Yet until now the experience of Jewish people working for the BBC since the Hamas atrocities has remained hidden from view. The experience of Lucie Kon, an award-winning programme executive, has drawn back the curtain.
有理由推测，BBC管理层已向康女士支付了补偿性款项，并重新剪辑了将她署名去除的节目，因为他们知道BBC对她辜负得很严重。他们必然担心另一种后果：如果进入就业法庭审理，康女士遭遇的反犹主义细节——以及管理层未能妥善处理——将对BBC造成极大损害。
It seems reasonable to assume that BBC management has made a compensatory payment to Ms Kon and reedited the programmes her credit was removed from because they knew the BBC had failed her very badly. They will have feared the alternative: that an employment tribunal in which more details of the anti-Semitism Ms Kon faced – and management’s failure to deal with it – would have been highly damaging to the corporation.
作为BBC的犹太裔员工，康女士面临敌对环境：她被告知10月7日的种族灭绝式屠杀应“置于语境中看待”，并被要求“思考是什么驱使哈马斯这么做”。这无异于BBC管理人员试图为向犹太婴儿头部开枪、全家在家中被活活烧死、大规模强奸和性虐待等行径辩护。这令人作呕，然而发生的地点并非极端政治集会，而是我们的国家广播机构。
As a Jewish employee of the BBC, Ms Kon faced a hostile environment in which she was told that the genocidal murder of Oct 7 should be seen “in context” and that she should “think about what drove Hamas to do what they did”. This is nothing less than a BBC manager seeking to justify Jewish babies being shot in the head, families being burned alive in their homes and mass rape and sexual torture. It is stomach-turning and yet it took place not at an extremist political rally but at our national broadcaster.
康女士所经历的敌意和缺乏公正性并不是BBC某一个经理的个别问题。当康女士提议制作一部关于加沙学校和夏令营中哈马斯对儿童进行反犹太主义灌输的纪录片、并有数月的证据和强有力的视频作为支撑时，却被一名BBC高管斥为“明显的以色列政府宣传”。然而，根据康女士的陈述，涉事的高级执行人员在得出这一结论之前，甚至都没有看过这些素材。
The hostility and failures of impartiality Ms Kon experienced were not isolated to one BBC manager. When Ms Kon proposed a documentary on the anti-Semitic indoctrination of children in Gaza’s schools and summer camps by Hamas, backed by months of evidence and powerful video, it was dismissed by a BBC executive as “obvious Israeli government propaganda”. Yet the senior executive involved had not even looked at the material before coming to this conclusion, according to Ms Kon’s account.
当康女士向BBC领导层提出她的担忧时，她受到了孤立、排挤，最终失去了工作。这将对其他想要公开谈论他们所面临的反犹太主义和反犹太复国主义偏见的BBC犹太雇员产生寒蝉效应。
When Ms Kon raised her concerns with BBC leaders she was isolated, frozen out and eventually lost her job. This will have a chilling effect on other Jewish employees of the BBC who want to speak out about the anti-Semitism and anti-Zionist bias they have faced.
事实上，在过去的三年里，有多名在BBC工作的犹太人联系我，他们既遭受过种族主义虐待，也在加沙战争报道中经历了日常的偏见轰炸。在这些情况下，他们担心发声只会有一个结局：BBC职业生涯的终结。他们有需要养活的家人，还有要还的房贷。他们在对BBC经历的彻底沮丧与对亲人的责任之间陷入了困境。BBC：“反犹太主义者的温床”BBC雇用了数千名真正致力于其公正性和公共服务价值观的人。
Indeed, over the last three years I have been contacted by a number of Jewish people working for the BBC who have experienced both racist abuse and an everyday drumbeat of bias when it comes to reporting on the Gaza war. In these cases they fear that speaking out will only end one way: the end of their BBC careers. They have families to support and mortgages to pay. They are trapped between utter dismay at what they experience at the BBC and their responsibilities to their loved ones. BBC: ‘Home to anti-Semites’The BBC employs thousands of people who are genuinely committed to its values of impartiality and public service.
我曾与他们中的许多人共事过。但它也成了反犹太主义者以及那些以一系列进阶主义事业的激进使命破坏其新闻业的人的温床。许多人是社交媒体时代的年轻员工，他们根本不理解自己对公正性的责任。但正如康女士的故事所揭示的那样，这种病态远比这更深，并已蔓延至该机构的高层。
I have worked with many of them. But it has also become home to anti-Semites and those who are undermining its journalism with an activist mission across a range of progressive causes. Many are younger employees of the social-media age who simply do not understand their duty to impartiality. But as Ms Kon’s story reveals, the malaise is much deeper than that and reaches into the corporation’s senior ranks.
马特·布里廷作为BBC新任总裁，有机会正面处理这一问题。如果BBC的公正性缺失持续下去，而他又未能根除其内部的种族主义，我们这家国家广播公司的未来本身就将岌岌可危。丹尼·科恩曾任BBC电视总监
As the Matt Brittin, the BBC’s new director general, has the opportunity to deal with this head-on. If the BBC’s impartiality failures continue and he fails to stamp out racism within its corridors, our national broadcaster’s very future is in peril.
