In reply to the discussion: Channel 4 to mark Trump's UK visit with 'longest uninterrupted reel of untruths' [View all]Emrys
(8,710 posts)41. See Muriel's replies about UK TV channels upthread - Channel 4 is a separate broadcaster in its own right,
not part of the BBC. The BBC's too often afraid of its own shadow nowadays and wouldn't dream of challenging Trump (and our government, which is desperately and pathetically trying to suck up to him - hence the latest state visit) in such a way.
Unfortunately, Channel 4 is quite strict about not allowing its content to be streamed outside the UK. Some try to use VPNs to stream its content via the Web elsewhere in the world, but Channel 4 is reportedly quite savvy about detecting and blocking VPN users.
I'd hope if the programme makes enough of a splash the channel or someone else will find a way to make it available in the USA (and hopefully everywhere else).

Correct - there are, confusingly, 3 entities with "4" in the name for the UK
