ITV's Big Brother edited out a pro-Palestinian symbol from a contestant's T-shirt following backlash. Contestant Ali Bromley wore a T-shirt featuring a watermelon in the colors of the Palestinian flag, which is linked to anti-Israel sentiment and sparked complaints from the Campaign Against Antisemitism. The organization deemed it a serious violation of broadcasting standards for promoting a 'genocidal message.' Big Brother apologized and removed the symbol from re-uploaded episodes, stating the implications were not understood during initial checks. The controversy has divided public opinion, with some criticizing the censorship and others supporting the decision. The T-shirt, known as the 'Freedom Melon Tee,' is sold by Wear The Peace, which funds aid for Gaza.
