New Delhi, April 10 (ANI): Elon Musk has sparked a row with BBC after labelling broadcaster as “government-funded media” organization. Britain's national broadcaster was quick to push back against the categorization, reported CNN. Label now appears on outlets that receive some govt funding, including BBC, PBS, NPR and Voice of America. However, it does not appear on other government-backed outlets like Canada's CBC or Qatar's Al Jazeera.
