The article in question, which was featured in one of the programme’s graphics, was headlined “British jurors concluded taxes may have funded 7/7”, with the subheading “Reasonable cause to suspect it was a ‘false flag’ attack”.  It concerned the trial in 2011of Anthony John Hill on a charge of perverting the course of justice for having sent a homemade documentary suggesting the British security services had carried out the 7/7 bombings to the judge and jury foreman in a trial linked to the attacks.  The article drew the conclusion that Mr Hill’s acquittal amounted to a finding by the jury that Mr Hill’s theory was true.  As this conclusion was entirely unwarranted, the ECU considered it justifiable for the programme to include the article among its illustrations of disinformation.
