Fifty eight minutes into Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg (so people can verify this later), Kuenssberg played a clip of Fresh & Fit, described as a dating and fitness podcast and played this "deeply misogynistic" clip:
"If I arm you guys with the tools that you need to deal with these (bleep) modern day women. I'm happy with that. Because you know what? I'd rather be called a misogynist [BBC edit] I'd rather that, right, be called names than one of you guys killing yourself over some (bleep)".
She puts Lord Michael Grade, the Chairman of Ofcom on the spot to ask him if Ofcom will ban that podcast and relevant content from the Internet (his face was a picture as the clip was played). Grade says yes, criticising women is deemed illegal under the Online Safety Act and platforms should be removing all such content.
They're also pushing for this legislation in every other country through both legislation and demanding corporations withdraw funding from any platform that hosts such content.

As a bonus, they demanded the shut down of GB News as well. Grade isn't saying anything as there are fourteen investigations ongoing at the moment.
