Summary of press propaganda in the UK

Lotus Eaters podcast discuss how the UK press distorted the story of a school girl who carried an ax to protect herself and her sister.

a good reporter would have gone into the neighborhood and maybe to the school to see if similar sexual harassment or worse happened to their preteen girls. But no, instead the press backed the government propaganda.

two reasons I posted this:

One: it shows how press bias happened, and it suggests why the press ignored the grooming gangs for the last 40 years

Two: It shows the importance of Twitter in exposing grass roots news stories at a time when the mainstream press is failing their job in exploring the truth.

And suggests the UK aim to stop the internet access is more about controlling the news than about protecting the children
