OK yeah but every major “news” channel is like this

That's literally "whataboutism".

Ignoring real censorship in the UK because the originating nation of the news source also has censorship... is whataboutism.

Not at all. I agree with the premise as I said so there was no whataboutism in there. I merely pointed out that a news source from a nation that allows nothing even vaguely approaching what the UK has, to be ironic.
