Both. It's why - for example - if you tune into paper reviews on other channels, if a paper has been foolhardy enough to publish something libelous (or legally contentious, without right-of-reply to the person concerned), not only would the panel not be allowed to discuss it, the channel wouldn't run it at all - even as part of a summary - because any utterance of a libel (even a presenter saying: "Paper X claims this") would - if it were proven to be libelous - constitute a fresh instance of libel.
Were a misjudgment to be made or a guest were to "go rogue" and say what they wanted against the instruction of producers, both the channel and the guest would be held liable.
It's why producers of such programmes have to be VERY careful.

I’m sure if some did libel Schofield on his show, Dan would be beside himself with excitement, and worry about the consequences later.
I notice he’s still going on about Schofield on his show tonight plus he’s now demanding Gary Lineker is sacked as well.

Why Lineker? What has he done now? The term "BBC" seems to set off a nuclear reaction inside Dan, whether this reaction is the real Dan, I sincerely doubt, I feel he is simply throwing red meat to his GB "News" viewers.

He’s been giving his opinion on government policy again on “left wing Channel 4 News” as Dan would call it
I’ve never paid much attention to GB News before, I’m shocked who they get every night in his “super star panel”, tonight he had Lady C from I’m a Celeb giving her opinion during the daily Harry and Meagan section tonight.
Where else can you see Jim Davidson, Jim McDonald from Corrie and Lady C on the bill in the same week?!

RE: GB News - JMT1985 - 26-05-2023
Oh yes, I forgot Dan hates Channel 4 News too, even though unlike BBC News, Channel 4 is not publicly funded, but he still goes after it. He was all for privatising Channel 4, but of course I bet he had no idea how Channel 4 is funded, just like a certain former Culture secretary, who in a committee actually said Channel 4 received public money, and had to be corrected by a MP.
RE: GB News - KrazyKei - 26-05-2023
The fact that Channel 4 is owned by HM Government is what Dan is mainly complaining about. He is a capitalist who believes that Government should own nothing. Nothing to do with funding in this case.

Someone once said the current Channel 4 funding model is like you owning a house, but all the bills are paid by the person living there, you just own the property, all the upkeep is left with someone else. Surely that way of working would be attractive to the right wingers?
