Is there any way the decision can be appealed as it clearly seems wrong?

@aljazeera.com quite a lot of your recent bsky posts are like this one, with a picture that doesn't have a headline then more details on the headline. I would be grateful for that being looked into. Thanks.

Carole Cadwalladr was right and we’d be in a better world if more people had listened.
I liked this post before I read the news of the programme's death. I have already done everything I can think of to express my wish that it continues. Is there anything listeners can do to keep the program on air @peaseroland.bsky.social ?
